"Do you feel Lucky Punk"






The Tutorial

This week we were playing about with flash again and tweening within a tween. I seem to be getting to grips with the flash process slowly. I have a problem remembering all the things to do though and the order that they need to be done in. Practice makes perfect though so over the christmas break i will have lots of fun with it.

The Lecture.

Geneen gave a strong warning at the start of the lecture regarding students palying games on their Laptop Computers. I have to say that i have watched a few students playing solitaire and msn messaging their mates through the lecture and its plain disrespectful.

I attended a lecture last week where the students actually stopped the lecture completely with their chatter and even heckling the lecturer as he taught. Then complained to him at the end that they weren't happy that he stopped teaching!!!!!!!!!


He had to put up with the following:-

Students on their laptops x 3.

Two groups of students openly and loudly chatting through his presentation.

When one group of students were asked politely to stop talking they blatently then started texting eachother.

Heckling from a group of students who included the ICT course representive!!

The above group then walked out when the lecture was disrupted.


The course rep. then decided to speak on behalf of the others and tell the lecturer that he should resume his lecture as before. This is the guy who was the loudest of the group and caused the most problems in the class.


I couldn't just sit there and let him speak for me and our class so i confronted him and his gang of
muppets. I told him in no weak manner that he did not resresent me in any way, nor had i asked him to, and if he was going to disturb the lecture again then he should **** off.

Needless to say they swiftly shot out through the classroom door.
I realise that i am a few years older than some of the multimedia students but i was really ashamed of the behaviour and total lack of respect shown.

At the end of the class I apologised to the lecturer for my outburst but asked him not to class me with the yob gang as, i need to learn this stuff as i haven't done any multimedia studies before.

After all i will be paying the loans and fees off for the next 20 years or so and i'll be damned if a bunch of yobs are going to cost me the grades i need to get to year 2 and 3.



Quote from the urban dictionary 2007.

yob





see townie

they usually walk around in mobs of 5+ causing havoc or annoyance to those in the vicinity .





Anyway rant over.


The Reflection.

I will need to look closely at the colours i use in my multimedia presentations - and check the pages for Hex codes.

I wont be sitting there in my seat if the lecture is disturbed in future . I will be dealing with it.

I need to check whether i am colour blind after looking at all the colours in the hex charts i can see spots.



Im off to the quiet room with no noise or behaviour issues.



AAAAAAARGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH NO BOGROLL YOU LITTLE F*******Noooooooooooo.....
