My Java teacher is pretty much learning Java with us. Last year, the AP class was taught in C++, so a lot of the concepts are the same while a lot of the syntax/keywords/etc. is different. So, what happens is those of us who took the class last year, help the ones that didn't and work out the differences between the two languages with our teacher. She either writes the programs with us or takes the first one finished to use as a key.

Read SILICON SNAKE OIL* for some anti-coder comments from a coder.

My favorite part is where he talks about how the monitor switches are on the back of the monitor. What was up with that sh!t?

i hate to say this about teachers, but i've noticed that in some particular subjects, it really is all to often a situation of those who can, do, and those who can't, teach.

particularly in music, computers/technology, general science...

Then what would you say about this other teacher we have had:

(In short): He has been teaching IT for at least 10 years, though I've yet to find someone who have actually learned something from this guy. He barely knows how the mouse works. He doesn't know the difference between the minimize button and the close button... and he has been fired from several schools, for not knowing the basics about computers...

Oh, and he hates people who know more than him. Even the smartest people doesn't get high grades...

quote: Originally posted by ADG Is this problem only existing in Denmark, or is this a problem all over the world? At present time I have a programming teacher, who only knows Java... He knows a lot of java, but not THAT much... The problem is he almost only knows how to code Java... He has a very hard time to even find around the directories in Windows. He doesn't even know keyboard-shortcuts. Every time he saves a document, he always use the mouse to goto the file-menu, then click save... he doesn't know ctrl+s (Can you even live without this shortcut ). Also whenever he's writing code, and makes a mistake (which he notices later), he uses the mouse to click where there's some wrong code, even though he's only 2 lines below that place Even if it's in the same line he does this... also if he's in the middle of the line, but have to go to the end of the line, he uses the mouse instead of END, even though the line is very long... ...and don't get me started talking about the IT teacher on my previous school

You think thats bad, back in year eleven the first half of the year we had a great teacher who knew more than most IT teachers but for the second half we had an idiot who was actually a sports teacher and knew less than the students!
