a rant about environmental biology…
this has been the first class where I’m actually being marked on participation. We’re marked out of 10 each tutorial class. Attending the class will only get us 2/10. So if we attend and do nothing, we still fail somehow… stupid. In order to get a 50% for the tutorial class, we have to make an original comment/question. Depending on how many of these comments we make, we can get anywhere from 5-10/10. With 20 or so people in the class, how is it possible that anyone can get 10/10?? dumb!!! ugh!!!
The readings are so long!! I just find this class very self-absorbed haha. It thinks it’s the only course in the whole campus. Class is actually 50 minutes, leaving 10 minutes for people to get from that class to the next and if you’re like me who has to get close to the other side of campus AND change for judo, we are most definitely going to be late. I find ending class that late actually disrespectful. People do leave at the 45 minute mark, but if i leave I know i’m gonna miss some information >.< people have other classes to go to! Seriously!!!
Just the amount of participation we have to do even out of class! in the discussion boards, we are marked on the comments we make and what new topics we post up there. AHHHHHHHHH!!!
Don’t get me wrong, it’s an interesting class and raises a lot of awareness on what’s happening around the world and to this world that we live in. The work is just ridiculous. Sucks! blah!
