Frustrated to tears.
This is how we agreed to do things in my history class, since our teacher wants to post our homework online rather than just tell us.
The assignments would be posted on Sunday nights for the week, and we'd just have to get them done by the due date. There'd be and assignment with page numbers for each edition of the book circulating. This seems quite simple.
Imagine my horror when, while downloading the upcoming week's assignments yesterday night, I discovered something due today that wasn't listed last week.
I was irriated enough by the prior issues caused by the exclusively online setup, but this was really too much.
I confront him about it, explaining that because the assignment was supposed to have been posted earlier that week, I hadn't brought home my book because it wasn't needed for the assigment that was listed for Friday as of Thursday night. I explained that I would do whatever homework was assigned, but I need to know what it is before I leave school.
All that he got out of this was that the book is a pain to bring home if not needed.
So he said we'll keep our books at home from now on, and he's sorry, he'll "screw up" from time to time. Which just absolves him of the blame for it, because he can say, it was online and you had books.
But really, this is still an issue. He can't, with no mention, add assignments at 5:30 on a Friday night and be confused as to why people are upset. I can't spend my life checking online.
That's another thing. He thinks that it's a waste of his time to make sure that the questions on the tests are covered in all of the textbooks, so he tells us to look it up online if something on the study guide not in the book.
Waste of his time? It's a waste of my time too, and for all the time he's allegedly spending on the class, I don't see much outcome.
And I've just had this hideous arthritic day at school to boot.
And then, he calls my mom to see if I'm having a breakdown.
To which all I can say is, he's just waiting for someone to break down. And it won't be me.
And don't call my house!
