my lab is normal and not evil #mylab

[amurder-ofcrows]

my quantitative reasoning class cracks me up sometimes. we use both a website made specifically by our professor as well as MyLab Math (it's a Pearson thing) but my professor does not like typing long emails so sometimes this is what comes up on my canvas notifications:

"remember, your grade is very impacted if you do mlm"

[cemeterygrace]

pearson mylab i hate you forever and ever and ever

[gobstoppr]

i begging you Pearson website. let me open shit in a new tab with my mouse wheel click. youre a fucking textbook. let me be able to pull up different things quickly. Please. why the fuck does the HW assignment ui look like that. Jesus fucking christ. thank GOD i had to pay the cost of a fucking textbook for such a wonderful time. no, Thank YOU pearson myLab.

[the-technicolor-whiscash]

i HATE when dudes who think they're the hottest guy in the world try to ask you a question and act like because they think they're hot you should give them a different answer. No you can't have a hard copy of pearson mylab that's not how this works yes it's dumb as hell and extortion and a monopoly on the market no I cannot make your professor change that. No I cannot tell if you bought the wrong textbook you're going to have to ask your professor. No I cannot find your professor's email. Go into the field over there and start eating dirt.

[his-saiko]

Sis... Mylabs. If you could hear my thoughts for reeeeaaaallll. It's so specific 😭

I want a younger man to tell me "Take advantage of me."

Iwdnfbkflwbfkwnf. I want to instruct him on what to do. aaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH

Please. I need to calm down.

I want him to make me flustered. I want to grip the sheets. Scratch his back.

Instructors also need to provide a list of required course materials including any required online resources that have to be purchased or are provided in the LMS via course fees. Include the edition/year and ISBN.

I have to try to help so many students who can't figure out what edition they need, or if the Pearson MyLab subscription is included with their course fees or has to be purchased separately. Or if the access code that comes with the textbook is going to be necessary for the course or if they can get a used book without the code.

I try to refer to the syllabus but the number of students who say the info isn't in the syllabus, or the info in the syllabus turns out to be outdated is not insignificant.

I do realize that sometimes schools are shitty to their instructors about this stuff - where a department head or textbook manager sets the book lists and instructors don't get a say or don't even know what their book list is or which digital course materials are available or how to set them up. And sometimes instructors don't know what courses they're teaching until late in the game.

But if that's the case, instructors need to be flexible with their students and communicate their expectations clearly at the beginning of the term.

When students have gotten a book list and purchased materials and the instructor tells them a month in that they aren't going to use one of the materials or they need a different version or edition, or the instructor hasn't set up the access to the courseware... It's long past the return policy and you've just cost your students money they probably don't have.

And when you tell them they suddenly need a certain book or digital access for an assignment due this week, they're scrambling to get a print book shipped or figuring out how to get into a digital thing at the last minute. So if anything goes wrong - the book is out of stock, the package gets lost in shipping, there's some kind of technical issue with the digital access (happens all too frequently) - those students are screwed.

Sometimes college professors like to hop on my posts lamenting the sorry state of syllabi these days and joke about how they haven't thought that far ahead in the course themselves, or talk about how they struggle to complete a schedule for their students.

With all due respect, that's your job. If you can't do your job, you should have a different job. If you need help, ask your colleagues or your department chair or *someone* because I know that professors aren't given a hell of a lot of education on how to educate, so you probably *need* help.

But every single time I make one of those posts I get anywhere from ten to thirty messages, replies, reblogs, and asks say "oh man, that's exactly why I had to drop out of school; I couldn't keep up with the assignments because I didn't know when they were due until the week they were due."

I have been a college student in three separate decades, and "not having a schedule of assignments in the syllabus" is new to my experience. That shit didn't fly in the 2000s or 2010s and I think it likely has to do with professors being overly reliant on apps.

AT A MINIMUM your syllabus should have:

Contact information (including preferred method of contact) for the professor

Office Hours

Grading Policy

Assignment schedule.

Your assignment schedule doesn't necessarily need to have the exact page numbers of every reading or a full assignment sheet for each project, but it should have things like:

December 1st - Major Project 3 second draft due December 9th - Quiz 10 December 12th - Major Project 3 final draft due December 15th - Final Exam

If you end up presenting a more thorough schedule with readings and homework later, that is acceptable to present a week or two into the semester but it is absolutely insane to me that students these days don't know what homework they're going to have to get done over Thanksgiving break during the first couple weeks of class.

If I had three professors at once who didn't give me a schedule, how on earth would I know if I was going to have to read three chapters of a novel, take a midterm and turn in two stats homework assignments, and complete a history research paper the same week that I'm planning to travel to see family? If I'm aware of this from the beginning of the semester I can make sure not to pick up extra shifts, or I can plan to leave a day later to accommodate the midterm, or I can start working on the paper early to complete it before the due date but if I don't know what's going to be due when, I'm going to have a big problem.

If you don't give your students a schedule you are communicating that you don't care about their schedule, and that you think it's their responsibility to contort their life (and their job, and their other classes) around your class, and honestly my advice to students in that situation is "drop in the first week and pick up another class". That's actually part of why I recommend signing up for one more class than you can really manage - if you get a professor whose class looks like it's going to be a disaster because they don't have a schedule, you can bail before the withdrawal period and get a refund for the class.

I'm only in one class this semester but the professor's response has fully dropped me into "Fuck it, I guess I'll fail" mode and I don't even know if I can pull myself out of my current D grade because I don't know how many assignments we have left in the semester.

This is a shitty way to run a class. If you can't do better than this, you shouldn't be running a class.
