Ken, I'll not teach if I don't have a station for every student. My class is listed for 20 students on Saturday from 8a.m. until 11a.m. I typically allow overloads to the point of filling every seat in the lab (30 machines not counting the instructor's), and I usually come close to filling them all. I do everything hands-on and only accept assignments done in class. Homework is done based on the level of performance the student exhibits, everybody has the option, but not all get the same assignments. This is done basically to account for any disparity in uptake as well as to assure proper amounts of lab time and program exposure. I know my attitude is rather elitist, but shared stations are the greatest impediment to the learning process, next to inattention or unconcern. Dennis
