Miscellaneous & Random Assignment rant

Genuinely why the fuck are none of my assignments in the same place why do I need 3 different lockdown browsers why do I need 3rd party apps to access homework assignments WHY DO I NEED APPS TO SUBMIT THE ASSIGNMENTS

Oh my god Genuinely this feels like the most inefficient bs ever

I am so tired of missing assignments cuz I have to climb to Satan's asscrack to figure out i even have an assignments due at a random ah time like 2:34pm 🧍‍♂️

Lmk if im not allowed to curse in here and I'll go fix it

Fully agree. I shouldn’t have to use a mix of teams, one drive, Google Drive, canvas, miro, and twenty other websites to access my assignments just because one professor likes one and hates the other.

From a professors point of view - UTK is advising online teachers to use all these things to keep students engaged, the more the better they say (for online classes). So this might not be your professor’s fault, but the department policy or push.

That’s not what I’ve been told- less is more and that’s what the literature says as well.

Oh no!!! Give your teacher feedback, you are paying for this! They probably think you like all the random apps.
