there is still no help.
That'd make for a nice reality show ...
i dont hate this idea
Yeah, what Art said.
So much for tapping into the expertise of someone that really loves the subject.
Oh well. Where are my robot tutors!?!?!
i would own at that reality show
i have so much practice!
@oom: there are classes i attend and enjoy. hence "option". for those classes i hate and skip. or have a bad prof for.
*shrug*
I see it a little differently from the other side of the lectern, but I'm sure my students would probably agree with, given some of the gusty sighs I hear some days.
oooh, what do you teach?
honestly, two of my classes i never missed and enjoyed both the content and prof, and the other two i've barely attended
Classes on religion. Unfortunately, I have to teach mainly core classes so students end up in my class whether they want to be there or not so it can be rough.
Better than teaching math or biology though. Those folks have it rough b/c almost everyone hates those subjects.
that must be a pain. all the kids who shouldn't even bother coming cause all they do is play games on their laptops and distract everyone else.
I don't have an attendance policy and post the lectures outline online so they don't have to come.
They do miss somethings that are on the test if they miss the classes, but that's their problem. I got so annoyed with the lack of attendance the other day that I gave the students present two questions verbatim from the final.
There was a lull about three weeks after the mid-term right up to Thanksgiving when a lot of folks took a break. Then they got panicky about their grades and started showing up the last two weeks of class.
I used to do the same thing!
