I was just grading an assignment that I had my students do over Spring Break as part of a quiz grade. It wasn't hard, basically just giving the scientific definition of several words and then contrasting the usage of the words in science, compared with how they're used in every-day language. If they did it, I gave them credit. I was just reading what one guy handed in, and I think I could recognize maybe one out of every three words. Enough to know that he didn't do the whole assignment, but not enough to actually read what he wrote, you know? At the end, I was just thinking, "WTF did that say?" I think that in the three years I've been teaching this lab, that's the worst handwriting I've seen. I seriously just read it just long enough to realize that it wasn't all there, and then stopped because it was starting to give me a headache. :thumbup:

Some people just dont give a toss do they?

We had an online tutorial in our teaching primary maths unit this week, rather than attending an on campus one. There are probably 200 students enrolled in this course. Its 5.41 pm Friday and there are 35 posts in the tutorial. Six of which are mine. Its 10% of our mark, and 90% of the students have not bothered to do it!

I'm sad to say that I am one of those people. My handwriting is horrible. If I write in cursive it is illegible. If I print, it looks like a 4 year wrote it. Guess thats why I got into computers, hehe.

My husband's writing is horrible too. But he knows it, and acknowledges it. He can take the time to write something eligible, but if it's an option, he'll just type it.

I have to admit, that my hand writing has gotten a bit lazier the more I use computers for communication, but I don't have to slow down near as much as DH, and mine looks nice when I'm done, not just legible, lol.

You mean like trying to read some of the posts here?

I didn't say that...

*snort* :cursing:

Ahem. That is, you mean, there are people here who can't type their way out of a paper bag?! :svengo:Say it ain't so!

I gotta say, though, nothing really irritated me as much as ol' Holy Roller (if you were around in RnR last year, you know who I'm talking about) and the haiku girl. I just kept thinking "WTF?!" when I'd read their posts.
