I wandered up to the Uni for O Day and met the course co-ordinator. He helped me sort out some questions I had about the elective subjects. Then he questioned me about why EVERYONE failed Java. I gave him an honest answer based on my problems (the video conferencing technolody acting up, coming in to Java cold, 3 hour exam.) Then I asked him about another subject I failed: Object Modelling. I told him I found the lecturer has a very confrontational method of teaching.

"Oh shit! He's like that with everyone, even the other lecturers! You guys are nothing special."

Damn. I was feeling special, too.

Darn. I hate professors like that.
Takes all the fun out of learning,
and learning is 10 times harder
when it's not fun. :/

Hey Den, what Uni are you going too?

I am "at" the Uni of New England... I don't suppose we are students there together, are we?

Why are substandard instructors tolerated? Give 'em the boot back into the real world is my vote.

CYa!
