and you have no judgement because you never had to work in a vaccum
you always had an answer at your finger tips
There is no challenge. There is my side and your side and those sides were formed by opinion. Backed by facts that alone are true but added to a bigger picture don’t clear up anything
No, I didn't. There was a time when the internet wasn't available to me, and I went around like a fucking idiot blindly believing what people told me because I had no way to check for myself.
Now I do, and I'm significantly less retarded as a result.
no, judgment is what allows you to listen to a narrative and pick up on the fact the person isn't being truthful
without having concrete evidence either way
think of it this way: what type of test is harder?
...and what if the TV presenter doesn't know they're being fed a bunch of bullshit?
The TV presenter could be presenting a made up story, while having a completely honest expression on their face and absolutely zero indication that they're lying, because they also think the story is true.
1) an open book test; 2) a closed book test
lol
which is harder?
If you've had the same professors that I've had, then you'd know an open book test is often a bad idea.
They take that as a license to make things super fucking difficult.
you aren't answering
ah, so you understand then
an open book test means they can OVERLOAD you with everythin and anything
and you only have so much time to complete the test
When you have access to information your capabilities are legitimately expanded.
follow the metaphor
because you are contradicting yourself
the open book test is harder because you dont know what to focus your studing on
My professors asked me to do more, because they knew we could if the book was in front of us.
For those of us who already knew the material well enough for a closed book test, it threw a wrench into everything.
with a close book, the professor is limited to the degree they can misdirect you
lol wtf
This was in fucking math class.
That makes it easier then
yes, the close book test is ALWAYS easier
The formulas are right there. If you get hows they work you're done
DONE I SAY
Open book tests in math are absolute bullshit, because while you might have access to the formulas the professors tend to make everything more complicated.
because the scope is known
lol, you really have no idea
but the open book test will easily overwhelm u
in college, differnetial equations, had a professor that said all tests were open book
The book isn't the overwhelming part. It really isn't.
It's the questions you're being asked to answer.
we could even bring in tests frrom the previous year if we wanted
The book is plus, either way you look at it.
It's the questions that you get fucked on.
and the tests were identical to the previous years
