I hate bad teachers
« on: February 03, 2012, 07:04:02 PM »
We're learning about atomic bonding in class, and our teacher is just plain stupid. Her analogy for the D-block electron orbits was, "imagine its like a parking structure, You want to park in the top corners first, then you move back, but you don't want to park right next to the door".

Then she had us try to find the electron configuration of  U+5 with no further instructions while she went to go 'print some coppies' in the teachers lounge (does not have a printer).


At least its not as bad as our trig teacher, who threw the imaginary number i, and the unknown quantities "A", "B", and "Q" into a logarithm equation. Or his favorite gag, the "nonreal answer" equation, where he makes this huge-arse problem for us to solve, only to have it result in division by zero or some crap like that, and then references the answer in the next problem, so we have to actually do it to make sure  :bhead.

And can someone help me find the answer to this one: Tan(a)+Sec(a) (Csc(A)Cos(B)) divided by Cot (A)

You started this thread and it was obviously about your want and desire in spite of your use of 'we' and Google.

Do your own homework.

Also, pay more attention to your English teacher.

It seems all you do is call people on their bad grammar and spelling, and only those who aren't too bad at it.

Also, spell-check doesn't say "coppies" is wrong

No, but I do do that a lot to you

I find it painfully awful that foreign people can write better English than someone for whom it is their native language

Those are some bad teachers.  However, your disgust with their methods is the first step to overcoming their ineptitude.  Go home and get on Google, and look up ionic bonding tutorials.  The trig teacher however, is just an a-hole for doing that.  His job is not only to teach you math, but to teach you to love math.  Making you do large problems that result in 'undefined' is no way to foster a faith that math is a worthwhile subject.  Go on Wikipedia and look up 'Eigan Vector,' you'll love it.  Or, try to use math to solve problems that you make up in your head.  If you run out of math, jump on the internet and learn some more.  Or, if you're totally stuck, rederive it or potentially add to the field in order to get that problem done.  That's how Newton invented calculus.

Your math teacher doesn't sound like a bad guy. He's teaching you to be thorough. Making assumptions can be disastrous in higher level maths. Plus I always love when I do some several step thing and end up having everything cancel or something silly.
Of course I've had the luck of having some great teachers over the past couple of years. Take advanced classes if you can... the better teachers usually get those.
