Writing
As I continue through college I see that writing is going to be a big part of most of my classes and even though some teachers try to let me write whatever I want it may be easier but it is still a chore to go out an explore something that interests you then find an article to write about. My criminal justice teacher this year is probably the strictest grader I have ever encountered. You can lose five points just by not putting a period while citing with APA. Not to mention I have an essay every week in his class and a huge ten-page paper that needs eight sources that is due the day we come back from spring break. I think I know what I am going to have to do during spring break. I guess all teachers are not the best I am a visual learner and usually learn better when the teacher makes an effort to entertain the students while also teaching us the material we need to learn. My physics class might be boring but the demonstrations she shows us in person makes us apply the things we learned in real-world situations. Say you are spinning in a chair if you have your arms tucked into your stomach your weight is concentrated so you spin faster but if your arms are spread out you spin slower. The things we learn might not be to use for me in the future but at least its something I can explain because I understand the way she explained and demonstrated it.
First off a ten page paper over spring break!!, yeah good luck with that one. I agree that writing is a big part of college, its just such a tedious process nobody wants to do but has to be done. I too at times can be visual learner just depending on the class subject.
