Work Tommorow

In a few hours i have to get ready for work, teaching at the A.U.C.

Not particularly looking forward to it, since i marked quiz's and papers this weekend and was pretty shocked to see really low results. Most of the students got an F on their papers. I asked them a hypothetical question... one which they couldn't really google and had to research and think about... which is probably why the high no. of failures.

It's pretty scary to see how that people no longer study, and just copy things off google and wiki and submit that as their own thoughts and work. I noticed students doing that in their first assignment, which is why the second paper was set to be on hypothetics rather then fact.

Personally, i couldn't care less wether students choose to work hard or not, the thing that i am not looking forward to is the nagging and whining, they're really spoilt some of them, and more importantly, i don't think they realise that the A.U.C is supposedly a university.. not a college.

Ultimately i know how to deal with them, i just would prefer it if they would ACTUALLY study and actually try and learn something... it wouldn't kill them... although i will if they don't stop being a bunch of lazy spoilt good for nothings.

Well... i won't kill them... just give them a big fat F.

We're going to be talking about the transition from the 80's to the 90's tommorow which should be interesting... albet i think i'll be doing most of the talking... as usual.....
