[academicsecret] New comment on let sleeping dogs lie?.

David Carlton has left a new comment on your post "let sleeping dogs lie?":

I don't recall its happening back when I taught; then again, there was so much group activity that it would have been hard for it to, most of the time.

Having said that, my first reactions would be to either ignore the student (if they weren't bothering anybody); to wake them up and not say anything other than, say, "you fell asleep"; or (if it really bothered me) to wake them up and say "please don't sleep in my class: it really annoys me when students do that."

What are your goals in that situation? That might suggest some courses of action.
