    Sorry if I'm wrong but I seem to have read several threads by you over the past week saying that its holiday time coming up so why didn't you think to ask before such times as the university holidays started :confused:

    Because they were returned on the last day of term.

    I see that, but that thought misses the purpose of feedback to a large degree.


    Ugh

    I would make the point again, but these tautologies are driving me mad and Sisyphus didnt ever get to the top of the hill either.........

    Oh I agree with you on that. In fact I DO post on his threads. Which is why I have posted here my own opinion of him as a troll :)

    PS if I or anyone here were the uni lecturer we would be not necessarily displeased to be asked what we meant, showing you tried to read the comments and care, but if I got accused of having double standards etc. might get my back up and I'd start saying this guy is always complaining.
    It is an opportunity for personal contact, too rare in unis.
    And also it does no harm that they are seeing the effort you are making.
    So a little compromise in rigorous moralism would be justified by a higher good.
    Anyway if you had what you are asking mightn't you say, this place is completely impersonal, the feedback is all on a computer!? ;)
    Sorry my posts so long - not time write shorter ones.

    Q I am sorry you dislike me talking about the weaknesses in the educational process, but I am in no way a troll.

    Phil, one marker's bad handwriting hardly qualifies as a "weakness in the educational process". However it qualifies as a "poor me" subject, which is why we are having this thread.

    Whether you are genuinely who you say you are or not, you are still a troll in my opinion.
