Let the carnage begin...

I have to write evaluations for all of my dear students.

Muhahahahaha....

Eeep.... I can feel the universal levels of evilness rising already.

Can we say, "Presents for Arafel" time. Suck up students! heh heh

Not that Arafel would be swayed by such things--but merely as a tool for her further amusement. ;)

Go ahead and lay tribute at my feet - it will avail you naught. The poison keyboard is in action.

Oooh! Sounds like fun. :)

How extensive are the evaluations? (And how do the evaluations factor into their grades?)

They're not very extensive, truly - just something for the profs to go by if the student requests a recommendation later on in their careers. Many TA's don't put in additional comments about their students, but I do.

Not like they'll ever be used, in all probability, but hey...

That scares me, I had very little interaction with my TAs while I was in school, but I guess I had pretty good interaction with my professors so it is all good!

My classes are small enough that they can ask us to do annoying things like write recommendations. I have little to say about the quiet ones, unfortunately.

How about the ones that didn't come to class like me:)

Oh oh... you get big reprimands from Arafel. :) Then again, most of the time you were someone else's problem... This is a lab course, though, and I doubt you didn't show up for labs. Precepts/recitations were a different story for me, I blew those off most of the time as well.

Ah, well to tell you the truth most of the time my last couple years I didn't do labs either, but that was just because you only had to show up if you needed help, and I chose to sleep in!

[identity profile] arafel.livejournal.com 2002-05-08 02:25 pm (UTC)(link)
My labs were, at the least, two-credit courses, so not showing up meant a big F. P-chem lab was purest torture, but I got through it... and have the scars to show for it. Even the professors admitted that it was a crappy course.

Ah, usually our labs went with 4 credit courses, where you would do 3 days a week lecture and 1 day a week lab. Before semesters they were 5 credits, but being 4 credits is a better deal since they are semster credits they count more then a 5 credit course would.

Is it safe to say, "Your @$$ is grass," to most of them? :D

^_^ Many of them have gotten praise.. but not all.

Uh oh, you can regret not working harder now students !

Heh heh heh !

Or, being a pain in my ass, which is worse. ^_^

I did write a nice report for my pal Eddie, but I wrote sth like "he'll succeed through persistence rather than brilliance... but there's something to be said for that."
