    Um... I got my response.

    I SCORED! 10 out of 10. Also, my project will be posted next semester as an example of how to do the project. HA! Just Eat it!

    So, I assume I get a 100%!

    Monday night is the final! I hope I do well on that, its been tough though. Those damn Slovenians poking fun at me on the Spurs board. Ain't had time to go put them in their place. It's on hold for now.

    Recognize.


    Awesome!

    I got my final term paper for English finished. It was about music piracy on the internet. Now I just have two test to go...Bio and Math....with another paper due on wednesday for History.
    Speaking of music piracy on the internet....What are the best websites to download music from (legally). My husband is looking for some alternate sites to download songs for his mp3.

    no ! It feels like it now!

    even worse I had to do my first year of engineering (calculus, physics, engineering structures etc.) with a ing slide rule...deriving square roots manually, etc....

    TI had just come out with the basic calculator (+,-,X,divide/square root) for about $200 but those arrogant, pontificating, POS prick engineering professors claimed that using a calculator was cheating..

    For me it's amazing how weird things change in math mostly. In the first few grades...you had to find the answer...and that was all that mattered. Then later on in middle/high school....the main point was showing your work. Which is I guess a kinda sublimanal way of saying that it actually matters how you get the answer which I think is garbage. The answer is all the matters.

    That's because math gets a lot more complicated when you get out of grade school. What are you going to do? Give someone a zero on an exam for throwing in an incorrect negative sign or for messing up on a trig iden y?

    No dumbass, it's a way of saying you need to understand the process of solving the problem.

    Fine, you tell that to your first Calc professor and let he or she lecture you on it.

    Duff, you are short-sighted. Of course the answer is what matters; BUT, HOW you get the answer is ALL about the learning process. "Showing your work" is for the student's benefit, nothing more, nothing less.

    I promise you - once you leave the academic world, no one will give a how you solve an equation (unless perhaps you are an actuary).

    That's my point....if once you leave school nobody gives a crap how you solve the problem any problem just the result, why do they even tell you to show your work?

    For one to make sure that you're actually doing the work?

    Most of the crap you learn in college will never be used in real life, but that's part of being an educated person.
