I at least read “later” here as “subsequent, following” classes, not classes which take place later in the day.
- HarryHirsch 6y agoThe later the class is in the day the lousier the students and the less inclined to learn. Can't expect a half-literate teenager to give you good ratings when the class is about writing coherent English. That's an observable fact. But the abstract in the paper is talking about follow-on classes, not a section of the same course that's given on a different hour of the day.
