I just wanted to express my own confusion (a state I try to avoid) as Unit 2 wrapped up yesterday. Almost the entire class (I didn't check to see if it was all of us) did the Unit 3 discussions which weren't due until October 16th.
Did we all just work fervently ahead? I sincerely doubt this. One or two people posted to the discussions, and soon we all started doing it, myself included. It says "Unit 3" right on them. We all have a calendar and syllabus telling us dates these assignments are due. And it appears we all just ignored that, panicked, and got our discussions in a good two weeks early.
I'm sure there is a sociological study somewhere in this on group mentality. And, at least we all find ourselves slightly ahead of the homework for a short while.
