mandatory blogging exercise during off-week training

The prompt--what worked/didn't work (tutoring-wise) during the previous academic year?

The tutors worked, of course.

The lit pub worked. Worked us, anyway. Into the ground, some of us. But it was worth it.

The 2 1/2 months of database catch-up worked extremely well at testing my patience for mindless repetitive busywork.

Blogging didn't work, obviously.

The last-minute rush of slip-seeking students ("Can I just drop this off for a while and come back?") during finals week didn't work. It never works.
