Current Events > tfw you're like 90% done with your homework assignment

(+) Yeah! (+)

but you're procrastinating until the absolute last minute to just finish and submit it even though you could have been done with it two days ago.

Also I paid the remainder of my bill today so that should count as my homework.

if this were a communist country it probably would have counted for the whole class lol

---

Biology homework or like literally writing a biography about yourself? Or someone else >_> Bio can mean a lot of things.

I did the bulk of this assignment on Monday and yesterday but I keep mentally tripping myself up because one of the prompt questions is like... self-evident and I don't know how to respond, it seems like a trick question.

---

idk I could imagine a writing class where you have to write a story about yourself. And I think everyone has an interesting story if only because it's different than my own :|

Good luck on your exam!!

My class doesn't have a big exam, it just has one giant ass term project that I've also not been doing enough work on -_-

---

Human-Environment Geography, I actually love all the material I've learned so far, it's really fascinating, but the term project is fudgin' killing me because this is my first college class... was really anticipating like... a midterm and final exam lol.

---

I found that getting my obligations done with early on rather than letting them fester in the back of my mind for months saved me a lot of stress. One time I just got buzzed and decided to do a paper for a class from like 11 PM to 3 AM (I believe over a month before it was due), and I had to write it in German even! But it was definitely a weight off my mind

---

I'm a transfer student but my stuff was 95% language oriented so I'm basically at square one to meet my school's credit requirements (they accepted like 75 of them but they almost all fell under general electives lol)

@sauceje I know delayed gratification is the way to go but I'm falling into bad habits

---

Finishing my post, the instructions say to upload one map but I wasn't sure how to do just one (it only lets you see one variable at a time...)... so instead I'm uploading three fml.

Lol homework

Lol homework

I kinda like it, my other class is just watching videos and reading articles and there's a lot of interesting shit in there (and scary shit).

Currently pretending a gigantic pile of writing and grading isn't waiting for me.

Are you a TA or something? Or an actual teacher and you have to write critiques?

I feel weird, someone's pictures weren't showing up so I messaged them to give them a heads up (don't want someone to get docked points if they did the work ya know?). The joys of online education in the 21st century.

---

Grad student. I do give feedback on their work too, just been slacking off on grading some quizzes for the past couple of weeks.

---

Lol don't do that, these people need to know what they're getting so they can adjust course man.

---

Oh trust me i'm still way more caught up than the instructor of record for the course and than my own professors lol.

---

I would lose my ish if I had to wait weeks for something like that lol.

I remember having to post my second discussion post without receiving feedback on the first one and I was like "Damn I don't know if I'm gonna just fail this twice in a row or not". Guess it was pressure to improve on what I did the first time around regardless >_>

@ImAMarvel @Phynaster Do either of you have experience with the Ellucian Degree Works program that's used to show your program requirements and progress on it, and then create a specific degree plan with specific courses?

Trying to download that specific plan and I'm not having any luck in any browser (tried Firefox, Vivaldi and Edge)... The "Print" button works fine for the program checklist but I'm like 90% certain I need the specific plan.

I can't do a six week project unless I only have three hours left.

lol I'm anxious that that's what's going to happen when it comes time to finish my term project, I'm already nervous af because the draft should be due in two weeks but the calendar says next week.

Also I just need to remember that it's literally just compiling information and sharing what I've learned so it shouldn't be so daunting.

Never heard of it unfortunately, sorry :/

thats when you just submit it and take that 10 points hit

---

I can maybe take a screenshot if you want. It's annoying lol I've tried printing the page and printing the frame and it's the same result every time - just the top portion comes out.

---

EDIT: Figured it out, had to change from "Edit" to "Audit" view, which puts it... into the Calendar view, but that's the best I can do I guess.

Here's what the Checklist View looks like - as you complete courses they get checked off so you can see what you still need to do/what you can still take. This isn't the best example since it just shows general requirements, but when you get into specific sections of required courses it will say "Must take a class with XXX designator" or "Can take any two of: XXX, YYY, ZZZ, ABC, CDE".

(This page prints 100% fine when I click the "Print" link).


Here's the specific planner tool. Since it's filled up there's not a lot to see, but when it's still blank you can see the full catalog of offered courses, it will tell you what you're still missing, and you can just drag-and-drop it over to the term you plan on taking it in and it'll automatically update everything.

(This is the one I can't print out)
