[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think part of the problem is the testing. My dad is math professor and whenever he creates a problem on the test that wasn't explicitly covered in his undergraduate class, the majority of students will fail that problem and complain that it wasn't covered in the class. The students who took the time to learn will be able to figure the problem out, but very few students do that.[/quote] Would like to add that he's a professor at a top 15 school, so there's really no excuse for this.[/quote] I teach finance at the undergrad level. I have the same experience. Kids want plug and play. When they have to apply critical thinking, they can't do it and complain the material wasn't covered in class.[/quote]
