The following is from the article By Cassidy Villeneuve on March 1, 2019
It’s not every day that a student takes the time to officially thank their professor for a great project. But that’s what Dr. Jennifer Glass’ student at Georgia Institute of Technology did after learning how to write Wikipedia articles as a class assignment. The thank you came in the form of a certificate of appreciation issued through Georgia Tech’s Center for Teaching and Learning. In conjunction with the certificate, the student wrote:
Dear Dr. Glass, Thank you for being such an enthusiastic teacher throughout the year, and for challenging our class to go out of our comfort zones with the Wikipedia project. I thoroughly enjoyed each lesson as well as the project, and I am so excited for EAS [Earth and atmospheric science] classes to come. Have a wonderful break!
