Do you recognize anything of yourself in Bodner's description of students? What effect would the approach he suggests have on your learning and understanding?

Yes, I identify with Borner's description of students because I think it is necessary that our students can use the theory and realia. These two elements could better language of them. If they have the knowledge and practice what they learn in class, they couldn't forget it because it is an exercise that helps them to understand more English.
