this is for the fudgyman...
=> Students should check their sense of entitlement at
the door
maybe when he's a lecturer, he can put up this sign at the
lecture theater along with a bunch of ground rules stated in the
article...
I gotta agree with the article..... many students don't seem to
understand the difference between getting a degree and
getting an education.
I get this sort of nonsense in the end-of-semester feedback from
my students. For instance, half the class will compliment me for
briefly discussing lecture concepts during my lessons to help them
refresh and reinforce what the lecturer taught them.
The other half will be, like, 'This tutor wastes too much
time discussing concepts we already know! Why he can't just give us
the tutorial solutions?'
In other words, the good students want me to give them an
education.
The bad students just want me to be a glorified tape
recorder.
