See title. What’s the vibe? Do you correct them, hold your tounge?
Ignore them. Pass the class. Move on. All you can realistically do
yup, just jump the hoops and get your credit
i feel like it’ll be easier to get an A if they’re not very knowledgable about the material, right?
what if they knock points for contradicting wrong shit they say in lecture though?
That’s basically why you just pass the test and move on. No reason to call their shit out
aye. i dont want to seem a nag neither, there’s already a yapper in the room to eat the sins of the rest of us
If they don’t know their shit and are teaching nonsense anyways they are not going to be receptive to correction. It’s not even unlikely that they will feel threatened and go after you. Lots of fragile inflated egos in academia.
In addition to getting your grade by jumping through their hoops, you can sometimes reach your classmates. But that’s for a study group or group work, not speaking up to the whole class.
In terms of getting justice, as in the university caring and doing something about it, you’ve got no chance going to admin. They will perceive this as a PR problem and immediately tell the prof who may retaliate. You could post to ratemyprofessor or something later. Or you could review their publications and see if they are so full of shit that they plagiarize, which is actually surprisingly common.
you should definitely mention something in the end of semester evaluation but like the others said just grin, bear it, and pass the class.
GOOD point, it needs to be brought into relief how a tenure prof is getting work they’re less prepared for than undergrads while the adjuncts are completely fucked over (and i know at least two at this school who could do the course better)
not a fight worth fighting imo. just put up with the bullshit, get your A and forget about it
i just stopped going to class and taught myself the material
Real shit
i dont think im confident enough for that, i do feel the books will teach me more than the prof but idk ill understand the expectations for assignments unless i get the explanation in class.
the syllabus is shit
you can always go to class and then do homework from other classes during them rather than paying complete attention
Correct them. Get scolded. Get apologised to.
Correct them again. Get scolded again. Get apologised to again.
Correct them again. Get scolded again. Get apologised to again and get the highest possible grade for the course on the condition of not attending any more classes in the course.Also:
Correct them. Get the decanate angry at you. End up in a mess.Introduce them?
