Used to take photos with my phone and then type it in later

2019-08-22 23:49:51 UTC  

On top of regular writing it in

2019-08-22 23:49:51 UTC  

Was even more hell when the person doing the writing is an ancient maths professor who can barely stand and whose hands are shakey, yet still inexplicably can write on a chalkboard at a speed that far outstrips even the fastests of note takers

2019-08-22 23:49:59 UTC  

Online learning is more efficient if done properly, don't mistake that for laziness.

2019-08-22 23:50:18 UTC  

People are less efficient online

2019-08-22 23:50:23 UTC  

It wasn't a criticism, Medic, no need to get snarky

2019-08-22 23:50:46 UTC  

Second degree was all online-notes. It made me very lazy and I suggest it does others likewise

2019-08-22 23:51:03 UTC  

And where I live I have to deal with profs brought in from the middle east/asia and quickly taught english plagued with my local accent, the resulting professor cannot be understood

2019-08-22 23:51:17 UTC  

Online is only better for people who are very disciplined and can not get lazy

2019-08-22 23:51:32 UTC  

I have online only courses and normal courses with online notes

2019-08-22 23:51:54 UTC  

I've consistently done well with both, but I usually go online during the summer courses

2019-08-22 23:52:31 UTC  

Never did summer courses here - they're just not normal. I used my summers for working for money for the subsequent year

2019-08-22 23:52:43 UTC  

He doesn't live in the Midlands

2019-08-22 23:52:48 UTC  

He doesn't know my pain

2019-08-22 23:53:09 UTC  

I generally pick up extra shifts during summer and do online courses at my leisure

2019-08-22 23:53:14 UTC  

I had an Iranian maths professor who was impossible to understand. Didn't help that the material wasn't much better either

2019-08-22 23:53:28 UTC  

It's a danger in academic circles

2019-08-22 23:53:33 UTC  

Jeez, at least my unintelligible profs had good notes

2019-08-22 23:53:57 UTC  

You struggle with the 'natives', Weez?

2019-08-22 23:54:33 UTC  

The 'new Brits' are a little troublesome I will admit

2019-08-22 23:54:44 UTC  

The """asians"""

2019-08-22 23:54:53 UTC  

Oddly enough, there's been more and more seen in my local area

2019-08-22 23:55:06 UTC  

These kind of sightings would not have occurred 10 years ago

2019-08-22 23:55:10 UTC  

I mourn the loss of my local regional dialect/accent. TV/Films/INternet + the outflow of London to here has killed it within 2 generations

2019-08-22 23:55:30 UTC  

F

2019-08-22 23:55:55 UTC  

My region is still proud and strong

2019-08-22 23:56:24 UTC  

We built the chains and anchors for the Titanic!

2019-08-22 23:56:34 UTC  

Nice

2019-08-22 23:56:39 UTC  

You produced Black Sabbath

2019-08-22 23:56:41 UTC  

Take a bow

2019-08-22 23:56:53 UTC  

Ay

2019-08-22 23:56:57 UTC  

I'm no Brummy.

2019-08-22 23:57:13 UTC  

We differentiate ourselves from them. SMH.

2019-08-22 23:57:26 UTC  

I dunno, i'd take the glory for the wider region while you can

2019-08-22 23:57:39 UTC  

Nah nah nah

2019-08-22 23:57:44 UTC  

The East side lets us down

2019-08-22 23:58:16 UTC  

AHh, the famous Wolves/Brum animosity

2019-08-22 23:58:28 UTC  

Where does Solihull fit into this picture?

2019-08-22 23:58:45 UTC  

Wolves is out of the borders

2019-08-22 23:59:19 UTC  

I visited Dudley in 2003
