But one university instructor likes to start off her class with a little bit of levity.

To help her remember her students names,Dr.

Marie-Amelie Georgestarted asking them to send in photos of their cute dogs doing the homework assigned for the course.

I probably now have a collection of maybe 60 dogs,saysthe creative professor.

Some are at the computer.

Photo submissions from outside her class started pouring in when Dr. George shared her lighthearted assignment onTwitter.

However, not everyones pets were quite so dedicated to their studies.

(Even people not enrolled in her class submitted some funny photos.)
