We realized that, like us, most faculty members and students hadn't even conceived of this competence. Suppose that, in this university where most people had never thought of this competence, an evaluation started asking about it, once a term. Wouldn't the study itself help to increase recognition of this possibility. I'll always remember the adrenalin that shot through us that day. Emotions as Divining Rod Deciding what to study is usually difficult and it can be dull, especially at first.
Many factors conspire to keep evaluation discussions that way.
Let's get going. Let's not waste more time figuring out what to do. But lack of emotional response can be a clue that you have not yet identified a good question. The faculty members in the room all leaned forward. I think they all had just one question in mind.
