In class again ...2 in a row with B. and both with quizzes ...I detest his so called quizzes with a passion - they test not our understanding of anything, but rather our ability to master the most minute and boring details of the works we read.
I can explain the poems we study, for example.... but I'm sorry - 3 weeks later, while I will still be able to tell you about the poem, and even perhaps, about the author - I will not remember which state the town mentioned in the poem is in, nor what colour so and so's hair was (unless it mattered) or .... trivia... it's all just trivia.... and even if I wanted to, my brain just does not work that way.
Wouldn't be so bad but for the fact that the weighting of them is so very high... I suck at multiple choice at the best of times - to have them worth 40% hurts!
he's lecturing now; gotta go :(
