Teachers are allowed to talk to students during exams where you live? Wow. I can't help but say that that seems like a somewhat questionable system. -------------------- My BoE Page Bandwagons are fun! Roots Hunted! Posts: 9973 | Registered: Saturday, March 30 2002 08:00 |

Well, I've taken many exams where the teacher was available purely to clarify wording and such. Any questions relating to the substance of the exam were waved off. -------------------- Stughalf "Delusion arises from anger. The mind is bewildered by delusion.

You're a lucky one. All the Eco profs here are boring old men. I suppose it's a good thing I'll be in a Computer Science program for the next several years instead of that. -------------------- Polaris - Weather balloons, ninjas, and your big daddy Wise Man.

Good econ classes are definitely worthwhile though, I think. Frightening, but worthwhile. Posts: 2242 | Registered: Saturday, April 10 2004 07:00 |

Most teachers at my humble school (Warrnambool College) are shockers. But there are some good P.E teachers and even a good maths teacher, which is surprising. -------------------- I'll put a Spring in your step. Polaris Posts: 2396 | Registered: Saturday, January 29 2005 08:00 |

What I want at our school is a general astronomy class. Do any of you have that at the time? -------------------- -ben4808 For those who love to spam: CSM Forums RIFQ Posts: 3360 | Registered: Friday, June 25 2004 07:00 |

A tale from a guy who teaches no more: At one of the most prestigious universities here (so to speak) and a rather expensive one (second or so) this is what a professor of Electrical Engineer did: He was lazy and didn't want to an exam. He asked one of the students to do it for him. The student did. Word spread. All the students aced the exam. The teacher, for that and the general fact that he was terrible, was fired. A few professors, not many thank fu lee, smoke in class from time to time. (actually you, as a student, can smoke anywhere in the university except for the classrooms.) You can talk to professors during an exam, not a problem. Sometimes professors leave the classroom. And sometimes some people do things, using their bodies so to speak, to get better grades (but this happens in other countries as well, or so I've heard). Most of the stories I hear about other professors are about their crappy style or the bedtime activities. A few times I've heard stories of professors who have been overtly vulgar to students in the classroom. (Please, though, don't think that this country is full of crummy professors. We've already had enough bad publicity as it is, those are the exceptions rather than the rule. In general it is like in most other places, I'd imagine, you have a gamma of choices from the worst to the best and, I'd like to hope, a fairly tolerable middle ground (it should be an excellent average instead, though)) -------------------- quote:Random Jack Vance Quote Manual Generator Apparatus (Cugel's Saga) Posts: 604 | Registered: Sunday, June 20 2004 07:00 |
