Thoughts on Class Size and Students Joining midway????

Hey All~

I am running into an issue of losing students to other courses and attendance issues that may result in the student dropping.  I started with 43 students which was enough for 2 sections and am now down to 33 (with maybe at least 2 that may be moving schools and a couple others who may be dropping).  This may result in my 2 sections being combined and going to one so I want to be prepared with options.  

First, what are some of the class sizes you all have had that is manageable for this course, but may be large?  

Voronoi Tesselation: ask students to apply this algorithm to avoid future gov't shutdowns

Political polarization is caused in part by Congressional districts gerrymandered to be homogeneous enough to preserve party seats.  Our representatives don't have to please a mix reflecting the whole country, or even their local region, but only of a set of like-minded constituents.  What if we mandated (well, suggested or promoted) that after the next decennial Census, districts were created from a Voronoi tesselation of each state.

English as a Second Language and Students with Disabilities

Colleagues,

One of our ECS teachers in the District of Columbia has requested some assistance with students a) whose first language is not English and b) in special education. Does any one have any suggestions or resources that could be shared? Thanks.
