Globe and Mail; February 9, 2009

Windsor, Ont. -- In 2006, while shadowing my daughter, then a student at the University of Ottawa, I attended one of Denis Rancourt's classes (Professor Makes His Mark, But It Costs Him His Job - Feb. 6). Prof. Rancourt, clearly a dedicated, principled teacher, moderated a spirited, engaging, intellectually provocative discussion in which about 50 students eagerly participated.
..
Other undergraduate classes that I attended consisted of the professor lecturing while students chatted, surfed the Net or took verbatim notes. Few asked questions and there were no discussions, even when the professor asked for some.
..
Prof. Rancourt's class resembled classes I had at the University of Michigan's Residential College in the mid-1970s, right down to the use of narrative summaries instead of grades to evaluate learning.
..
His class was an example of the kind of educational experience I sent my daughter to university to be a part of.
