Classes

I'm starting to wonder if I should lower my expectations for my classes. I expect them to be more engaging, more professional, more "higher level" but we're still having silly group discussions and wasting time, not learning anything about what the specific course description says we're going to learn. Yes, maybe I should hold my complaining horses, its only the second day of class. But really, they want us to think for ourselves, why do they put us in groups and have us try to find a definition of a concept that we all agree with? That isn't thinking for ourselves or having our own opinion. That's conforming, compromising our ideas. And groups? maybe for a project, but in class discussion? No, not a fan. And adult learners? Not going to even start on that one. I need a nap...
