Some people never learn
May. 14th, 2013 12:50 pmGrading is hard. I hate grading. It takes me two days to grade a stack of 5 page papers. It's awful!
Last week I realized that, at the pace I normally grade, there was no way I would ever finish all the grading I needed to do by the end of the semester. So I sat down, stopped procrastinating and checking my email and checking my webcomics, and started grading.
You know what? It's going much faster than usual, and I'm less miserable. I suddenly feel deep empathy for whiny teenagers.
