Eaton's Corrasable Bond - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Oh.....fancy stuff! I lived in the middle of a cornfield chuckster! LOL and yep, I remember when my teachers actually allowed us to submit an assignment using that paper!

michelemybell, you crack me up! I dread the quizzes big time...all that time pressure and knowing that each questions counts a bunch. I'm taking notes as I read cuz who in the heck can process all this ethical stuff without a lot of review. Did I say I hate this class??? I do however, love and appreciate the 5 week course schedule!

Does anybody know what they mean by (identify)"ethical concepts"? I got the theories and principle.....duh.

michelemybell, I assume you found your answer by now? Concepts refer to the philosophical basis for ethics; moral philosophy. Ethics relates to the application of moral philosopy. Clear as mud!

I am so thankful this $%#&*@ class is only 5 weeks long. I bombed on the mod 1 paper and have lost motivation. Thanks to the fabulous IT dept I didn't even get into the class until last Thur evening. I busted my hump and got a horrible grade...the worst grade I've received since majoring in "beer" in 1980. I can't believe it. I either need a tissue or a drink. This sucks. :crying2:

Thanks for letting me rant...my fingers feel better.

A little late on the vote, but I think I did both! Week 1 was better than week 2 though. Between feeling like a complete moron with statistics and having to use the OU library for all sources, this 5 weeks is draining me.

Good point. I went from a bleak 75% on the 335 paper to an 80%, which I still think is a raw deal. Anyhow, communication can be beneficial. What I find so disturbing is that it all seems to boil down to the TA and their particular idiosyncrasies. This makes it incredibly challenging when changing classes. :confused:

The TA's idiosyncrasies are the biggest issue with the online courses. One course requests one thing while the other requests something else and we need to keep it all straight. My TA for NRSE 330 is probably getting tired of hearing from me. I had issues with cutting and pasting from word...it submitted every time I went to my word document. I had to deal with tech support after 3 separate tries. Then, I get told you cited something but did not use it put it in your reference list...YES I DID!!! It was the first one listed. Ugh. TA's are human and so are we. However, it just does not seem to help when contacting the TA. The grades remain what they are.

Oh those TAs...no consistency anywhere in the program thus far. Oh well, 335 is half way over! I pulled my lousy grade up so it's time to gear up for the final stretch!:uhoh3:

Week 3 under our belts, so 60% complete. This course is slightly less painful than some of the others though.
