wow

I sure do love signing into a class and getting a video from my instructor aggressively insinuating that myself and my classmates are idiots because he was using a very specific definition of the word teamwork, that was not ever in the book we're reading from, for our last assignment. So far the course has been us independently reading parts of the book, uploading our presentations that are based on a bare-bones rubric then the instructor boomer yelling at us in a video about how we're idiots for not understanding the exact and unspecified definitions he has for things (oh and it all has the underlying flavor of that kids these days need to be more independent and to stop being 'soft' ignoring that this course is supposed to be teaching us things rather than confirming that we know things)

#he reminds me of my dad (derogatory)#it really feels like he sets us up with an assignment knowing that we're going to fail it in some way and instead of doing anything to #keep us from failing or to help guide us around those spots he is waiting gleefully in the wings to call us stupid #this last one was how he doesn't do group projects because there will be slackers and he went about it in the worse kind of way #instead of focusing on how no group projects means that everyone can individually earn their grade he went for the angle of it's to #punish slackers #so yeah #very much a course I don't want to repeat especially if this is the only instructor for it #school stuff #and yeah I might be a bit sensitive to being called stupid (see my first tag for a clue) but fuck man this is borderline not professional #the underlying message that I'm receiving from it is 100% not but the way he's saying it skirts on the professional side technically #looking forward to writing up the course evaluation for this one but he'll probably take the negative reviews as a badge of honor #he's got the same feel as a teacher who is proud a bunch of students fail their class #because that means the content of the course is difficult or whatever
