Fellow grammar snobs will know what I mean

Course/module objective: "Define ICD-10. Describe it’s use in clinical practice."

I'm thinking there should be learning objectives and competencies for instructors, and one should read: "Determine proper use of apostrophes and contractions. Describe its use in clear, professional communication."

Cringe! I share your predisposition toward grammar snobbishness. Do you suppose it's genetic? (Notice proper use of the apostrophe, please.) Marlene

Proper use of the apostrophe was duly noted and fully appreciated, Marlene! LOL I don't know if our grammar snobbishness is genetic, but it's yet another trait I'm pleased to share with a beloved cousin! :->
