<p>Justin: I know the feeling.&nbsp; I teach on campus and many of my students do not read the material either and still expect to pass the course.&nbsp; I too would like to know how to get students to realize the importance of reading assignments prior to going over it in class so they can come prepared with questions about things they did nto understand and be able to add relevant discussion to the class.&nbsp; It really enhances participation and engagement.&nbsp;</p>
