Student "edition" found at {thoughts dot com slash typed no space out no space loud slash blog}.

Maybe I shouldn't have started this blog now, not with everything that's been going on.

It really tries my patience sometimes when students who don’t want to or know how to think for themselves are the ones who have no compunction against asking the teacher for help.

Right now one of the examples I have is the class making their electronic scoreboard.

Every little thing that doesn’t’ work with their circuit and I hear their shrill voices looking for me for help.

This is their second class that has an electronics lab, so they should know how to troubleshoot already.

Part of their reasoning is that they are nearing their deadline and they want to finish already, but that doesn’t bode well for how much their grade will increase if they don’t show the effort of working for it and they rely on the teacher.

The second example of this is one of the student volunteer groups. They told me they were going to have a meeting over the weekend, but that doesn’t mean they have the right to barrage me with questions over my break.

Especially since, if you read the student accessible version, my weekend was busy.

Much more so if what they’re asking takes more than one text message; if that’s the case, then it could most likely wait until the Monday when meeting face to face.

@@ Finally cleared up that apology and explanation that a friend thought I was entitled to.

It was because of something I did that was taken in offense and posted about, but taken down.

The assumption was that I had read it, and I didn’t. The act was not characteristic of me, and even though I pleaded the circumstances as being too much to pass up what I did, I said that I knew it was wrong, and it’s not something I proudly tell people that I had done, or plan to do again. That seems sufficiently vague enough to leave as it is without further details.

@@ Student council elections are this term, same with the technical panel for revision of the student handbook, three school weeks, the unified Integrated School and college band fest, a Valentine concert, and so many others I’ll discuss later.

Session 2505 is now swamped in more topics than space to write. Class dismissed.
