----- Original Message ----- From: "Eleanor" <eleanorz541@xxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: gmulim Adele -- those among us who topped out gmulim -- do not get an additional increment. I never handed in my NBA paper in 2003 ( the first year / pilot course) for that reason Took the course, passed it on to my staff at school, but did not do a final paper. And -- gmul for the course is NOT the same as gmul for doing work each year.

But to answer your claim at the worthiness of being paid for writing the projects in the first place - I agree. >When we were in the NBA course, we were taught to write a project. I got a Gmul for that course - which means I am being paid now more money every month for having taken the course (ah- not a whole lot - but it IS something - I would, of course, be glad if it were more)- and having written my final project, which was a project plan - which - if I wish, I can use ad infinitum, ad nauseum. If I wish to adapt it, improve on it, change the topic so that _I_ am not bored - THAT is my prerogative. >I love the gesture-project idea... let's see how far you can take that one >J And if anyone can get us more money for working with those 14 year old gas-passers, I am all for it (and what about compensation for teaching the lesson AFTER Phys ed?) ----------------------------------------------- ** Etni homepage - http://www.etni.org or - http://www.etni.org.il ** ** for help - ask@xxxxxxxx ** ** to post to this list - etni@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** -----------------------------------------------
