Last day of exam

Yesterday was the last day of the exam for our faculty ...and so happens that my own paper was scheduled on this very last day ....so, I came to the office to see my students taking their exam .....they all looked busy ...too busy writing their answers hehehehe ....nobody was smiling, everybody had their head down ...

Now that the exam are over and done with, it is now our turn to mark the exam scripts ....i had 38 students this semester, and they are supposed to 3 essays each ...meaning I have a total of 114 essays to read and mark ...all in a space of less than 2 weeks .....sounds stressful? hehehe I had had worst than that ...when I first started  teaching, I made the mistakes of asking the students to do 4 essays ...choosing from a list of 6 titles ...for a group of 70++ students ...hahaha that was a stressful time ...trying to mark so many essays ....in a short time given ....and i also asked that same group of students to do online forum and discussions for their assignments ...and that TOOK TIME to mark as well ....

after their last class - 20th Dec 2011 ....

so, comparatively, 38 students with 3 essays each is not too bad ... i just need to concentrate on my marking ...the momentum must be there ....with lots of patience, and a good eyes to read their miserable handwriting!
