software can create the knots, giving Heath and his students the ability to see the knot in three dimensions and better understand the problem, Ebbinga explained. But that’s only the tip of the virtual iceberg. Ebbinga imagines the software being used for stage design, in the science department for digital imaging, by facilities to design landscapes or layout sprinkler systems, and by individual student for special projects. “What is really interesting about this program, is it’s not just big

In the classroom, then, the poem can be discussed the way machines are discussed, with reference to the technical features that make the machine what it is. To speak of poems in this way, however, requires a scholar’s commitment to studying the genre’s history, its masters, as well as its formal and thematic dynamics. In my poetry-writing courses, it turns out that reading and studying poetry end up taking more time than the
