First, I don't feel like typing a novel right now so I'll make this short and sweet.
English- The class is divided up in two groups for peer essay reviews. In my group there are eight people. The other has eleven. The point of the groups is to 1) submit your essay so the rest of the class can access it online, 2) review one other person's essay, 3) comment on what people have said about your essay. I submitted my essay over two weeks ago. The actual due date is tomorrow. Guess how many other people in my group have submitted their essays. ZERO!!! Guess how many people have reviewed my essay. ZERO!!! So what this means is I have to sit on my hands until someone submits their essay so that I can review one AND I also have to wait for someone to review mine so that I can comment on their review. I hate hate hate having to rely on other people for things like this. I know everyone will leave this until the eleventh hour and I'll be up late tomorrow night doing school work. Grrr.
Psychology- It's three weeks into this course and the instructor has only released three weeks of work. I know that sounds like he's right on schedule, but in reality it's far from that. He should have ALL of the semester's work available by now. I could be getting ahead in that class right now, but noooo. We'll see what happens this week... I may go to the Dean of his department about this.
Lab Skills- The instructor had a list available to all of his students about what to bring to class last Monday. (The first assignment, the syllabus receipt, etc.) I made sure to bring everything. Did everyone else? Noooo. But it didn't matter, he went over everything anyway. What's the point of telling us to bring stuff if you're not going to care? Also, he made it very clear online that we need to show up to the classroom on time. Out of 12 people, 3 came late. The last one walking in 1.5 hours late. Did he care? Nope. He basically just started the whole class over again each time someone would walk in late. My time is valuable. This pissed me off hardcore.
Okay, so it was a novel.
It would really piss me off too! Why does this sound like a Maui school??? LOL
ReplyDeleteI guess I never tried hard enough, nor cared enough in high school to ever notice these things. But I'm sure you're 100% right! Now that I take school seriously, I get really frustrated about stuff really quickly...
