apparently this year is the very very first year that something very in particular is going to happen.
usually... students would submit a piece of work for internal assessment... and the teachers could say that this or that bit needed some work to be tidied up. so they could redo it. and get it back to them. and in that way they could get an excellence grade for that piece of assessment. and of course in actual physical schools the kids would do the work as a group. or the kids would get a kid who handed their work in and received their excellence grade and use that as a check before they submitted their own work to ensure that they would get that grade to.
but the year that i enrol is the very very very very first year ever that apparently you only get to submit something once for excellence. otherwise it's only pass- or fail.
and apparently there are lots and lots and lots of students enrolled in the correspondance school of new zealand. lots of them. and not just primary kids. adults too.
so... uh... where are they, then?
why won't we have (at least one) actual class per week? that is to say why haven't i had the opportunity to meet so much as ONE other student enrolled in my level course in physics or chemistry or....
occasionally there is an online thing... but only 1 or 2 other studnets...
they aren't well advertised.
they appear to be 'invitation only' sort of events. actually...
i suppose if they don't isolate me from others then we would check each other's work... and that wouldn't work for the whole
teaching her a lesson.
it's all about sucking up to us. sucking up to us. sucking up to us. from a position of helplessness. sucking up to us. sucking up to us...
so apparently i need to hand in once piece of work per month or they will remove me from the roll.
that is to say they will prevent me from sitting external examinations.
handing in pieces of work to them...
is the work helping me prepare for the external examinations?
or is it busy-work they have created in order to...
well...
sucking up to them sucking up to them sucking up to them
a hoop to jump through
to be paid
so i can say they pay me they pay me they pay me
to ensure my job is never done. not by me and not by anyone.
new zealand: it's not working
