My rant on arrogance and idiocy of Computing Teachers - General

- Yes I know this is school related, but its also about arrogance and idiots - Some background on my teacher: Uses an Acer, thinks she is above the law and can rewrite history like she's in fucking 1984, thinks her 4GB of RAM is boosting her e-peen. If I was in power, she wouldn't be allowed within 20ft of a computer. I can usually put up with that crap that my computing teacher (:downs:) spews but today, she tipped me over the edge. She was teaching us about desktop publishing and image file formats. She makes a list of formats (JPG, GIF, TIFF) (what an extensive list eh? wheres my PNG!) and starts licking GIF's ass, stating it supports [QUOTE]MILLIONS OF COLORS! :downs:[/quote] and meanwhile JPG (no variants mentioned) only supports 256 colors, and is the most popular file format on the web because it loads quickly (lol). No. I correct her by raising my hand and stating she has mixed the formats up, and I say GIF only supports 256 colors and JPG supports true color. :banjo: She shoots me down mid air saying [QUOTE]No, your wrong. GIF supports true color and JPG supports 256 colors[/QUOTE] I say 'No, I use graphics all the time and believe me, GIF only supports 256 colors. (I fucking design for money) She insists I'm wrong. Still, not as bad as my business teacher who couldn't handle 1+1 This keeps happening throughout my school. Teachers get their mistakes pointed out and the pupil gets acted on as if it is their fault. I'm sick and fucking tired of it. Maybe it's just me? :frown: Discuss [highlight](User was banned for this post ("Rant thread" - Greeman))[/highlight]

You can't accept that people can know less than you, that is all

[QUOTE=Max of S2D;20683659]You can't accept that people can know less than you, that is all[/QUOTE] You aren't supposed to know more about a subject than a person that is teaching it to you... it's just wrong.

[QUOTE=Max of S2D;20683659]You can't accept that people can know less than you, that is all[/QUOTE] I can, I just can't accept them thinking they are always correct.

I had some old dude that smelled like booze as computer teacher.

[QUOTE=Max of S2D;20683659]You can't accept that people can know less than you, that is all[/QUOTE] Sniping fag. Also the teacher is a dumbass, you are right, [i]she[/i] is wrong.

Some teachers do that because they work hard to become a teacher. They don't like being talked down to by a lowly student.

if you're so fucking good why don't you teach the lesson then

My old computer teacher was a fat old bald guy that had lesbian porn stored on his 2gig USB drive and had a mini fridge packed with butterfingers and mountian dews. Last day of class I went and took like 5 butterfingers, a dew, and deleted a gig of his porn off of his USB drive because he liked to think that he hid it in a well place...that "well place" being the back of his desk inside the main drawer. That was a good day.

My computing teacher wasn't arrogant, but he didn't know what system restore was or that it's possible to recover data once it's deleted from the recycling bin.

There's a thread for this in Fast Threads. [editline]05:37PM[/editline] It's on the 3rd version.

Today since it was the last day before March break, my Introduction to Computer Science teacher gave us a free day to do whatever we want, we all played a LAN game of Assault Cube, the teacher joined in from the beginning. Fuck yeah! It really depends on the teacher you get and what the course actually contains. If it's a course about Microsoft Office 98, you'll get idiots. If you're in a class like mine where you learn ActionScript 3.0 and some computer hardware, you'll tend to get someone a little more qualified.

We just do bullshit, I am starting to regret taking it

[QUOTE=codenamecueball;20684027]We just do bullshit, I am starting to regret taking it[/QUOTE] My computing teacher is exactly the same, the subject seems to draw the moron teachers.

I've spent 16 weeks learning the Intricacies of Microsoft word, such as Mail Merge and Macro's everyone already knew about. :frown: I know your pain.

[QUOTE=angrykid8;20684191]My computing teacher is exactly the same, the subject seems to draw the moron teachers.[/QUOTE] I had a great teacher in S1, but he left, he was great, he saw I wasn't a drone, and let me do coding and stuff 3 years early. Sigh

Prove to her that she is wrong and knows nothing about shit.

Both my computing teachers are so clever

our tafes unix lecturer wants to have his final exam to be to setup a network and play quake. No shit, nothing gets students to setup a network in less than 4 minutes than a chance to play games for a couple hours AND pass the class doing so. Hell, I finished a lab early so instead of leaving I played Tiberian Sun for a while, he comes over, watches notices I've only got 4 harvesters and he's like WTF'S WRONG WITH YOU!? Young computer lecturers are awesome.

[QUOTE=codenamecueball;20684362]'Oh hi miss, look at this thread' [IMG]http://img211.imageshack.us/img211/1226/permaban.gif[/IMG][/QUOTE] Source on gif? Teacher is just dumb. Make her say, "Why don't you go and teach the whole class?", and do just that.

Our teacher don't know even how to change fucking Windows theme , I put it black and purple and she cried for help from me , then I changed the monitor contrast theme and she didn't know how to change that either

Arrogant teachers irritate me. I worked in a high school for awhile (I actually have my teaching license, but decided not to become a classroom teacher) and I helped kids with homework and studying. One girl came in with a study guide for her upcoming biology test (I majored in biology, so it was pretty easy stuff) and one of the questions had no correct answer (it was something about how much ATP is produced in one step of the Calvin cycle, I think). I showed her in her book where it had the correct answer and marked the page number down for her so that she could show her teacher. However, even with the book as evidence, he refused to admit his answer was wrong and proceeded to put it on the test. That's why I don't like arrogance - teachers refuse to admit they're wrong and make sure all the students have the wrong knowledge too.

we had a substitute for math once...I changed the theme for the XP PC I was on, because blue is a piece of shit and Silver is sexy as hell. He saw me do this and being the computer savvy gentleman he is, he told me off for changing the colour scheme. He tells me to change it back, so I do before he has an aneurysm or something. I select Blue than slam on the OK button. Him(read in a REARRY CHINESE ACCENT, replace L's to R's where appropriate): nonono that doesn't work, you have to click apply. Me: It doesnt matter! Him: you have to click apply to make it change back Me: ugh, FINE..*proceeds to have an aneurysm out of sheer stupidity*

Our Computer Science teacher gave us the lesson in about 10 minutes, then we all, including the teacher, started playing Call of Duty 1 on LAN.. Damn, he pwnd everyone...

One time my History teacher misspelled a bunch of stuff on his PowerPoint show, so I said "Sir you spelled [whatever it was] wrong". He came back with "Oh so I guess your GCSE coursework will be perfect then?" and I said "Well it'll be spelled right" He proceeded to rage in front of the whole class.
