Boring Class'es

The professor for Neural Network is interesting but the moment he starts the class everybody will look at the clock every five minutes hoping that, for some crazy reason, time will speed up so class will be over. It might also be a class necessary for your major with a mandatory attendance policy. As an admirer of him, i(we) spend almost every day thinking of different ways to keep myself/ourself class "interesting" and it wasn't until recently that we/i realized how funny these boring classes are to us.

One day, I was feeling sorry for him because of how much work he had to do, and this classes make us so mad. I think he spends lot of time every day learning how his students can maintain interest in a lesson and yet we can't even keep our eyes open through some of our c classes. we are assigned to listen, and therefore we should enjoy it, right? Wrong. Ironic, isn't it?

Don't get me wrong here. I am not saying teachers are responsible for some of the "boring" material they are required to cover. I am saying there are some teachers who need to remind themselves of where they are working and what their initial reasons for becoming a teacher were.

If a professor's reasons included a good pension plan and health care benefits(lol), then I guess it would be understandable that he or she doesn't really care whether students enjoy class or not. It is amazing to me how many professors expect students to learn and understand specific material when the only way they teach it is by reading directly out of a textbook(You know who i meant).

The more we think about it, the more we feel the need to complain. hope we get back to normalcy not skipping their classes and TRIO don't piss off, you guys.
