Week 9: Textbox.txt

Let's talk about Programming concepts shall we? What an awful lesson, i came hoping to learn how to program and instead got what i could only compare to a non-lethal dose of Chloroform, it isn't enough to kill you but it will sure as hell put you to sleep. Towards the beginning of the year we started off doing useful things, working our way through the basics and on to more complicated things, which was great, but then we've reverted back to basics and have been stuck talking about the same crap every lesson 'how do you add a text box?'. A mentally handicapped monkey could add a text box in Visual Studio, though admittedly comparing my classmates to a mentally handicapped monkey may be abit unfair, the monkey did nothing to deserve that.

Week 8: Flipped learning

Since nothing interesting happened this week at all, I've decided now would be a good time to talk about flipped learning, or as i like to call it 'watch youtube because it's easier than me teaching'. Surprisingly i actually really enjoy this way of learning because all i do in my free time is watch youtube anyway, admittedly allot more interesting videos but the principal is still there. The key to flipped learning is self motivation, and the ability to do work in your own time, which is why it has been a complete failure because there has only been about 3 of us doing anything. You really do have to admire the levels of motivation, or lack there of, in this group.

Week 7: IS THIS NOT A DEMOCRACY?!?!

Fellow students, i am sorry to inform you that we are living in a society where oppression is just part of the daily routine it seems, and we are as much to blame for standing for it. This week we stood up to oppression, as a group we raised the foot of society that was keeping us down  off our heads and took a giant leap for democracy. We few, we brave few....have increased the amount of sausage rolls in the canteen.

Also some learning stuff happened i guess.

                                          

Week6: Personal Denial Plan

The reason i would call it a Personal Denial Plan as opposed to development is that i believe you must be in denial to believe you can plan that far ahead within your life, unfortunaely im not a palmn reading gypsy so i can't see into the future, you have no idea whats jsut around the corner, who knows, i might be hit by a bus tomorrow then all of this effort would have been for nothing. But because it's a aprt of the course i had to ramble on about things i didn't actually believe i had any control over, in hindsight i should have written about my dreams to become the first superhero in the world, to me thats just as predictable as anything else.

                         

Week 5: Wooooo, Groups!

Today we found out what kind of person we are in groups, according to these super accurate totally not psuedo science tests at least, I was a natural leader apparently, which i felt pretty good about until i remebered well hitler was a natural leader, and so was jim jones, and we all know how that ended so it doesnt really mean that much. In reality all it means is it's my job to make sure everyone is doing what they should be doing and heading in the right direction, so i get to sit around bossing people about, this sounds perfect.
