Hogwash...

"Our db queries are problematic. Need to be of higher order thinking. Will try to get help tmr." sms msg from my project mate.

Yah... right... considering that I wrote those queries for the database... i am obviously from the lower order thinking group. Ok, don't even comment on that particular statement. Uh! Zip! Shush!

Before you continue about how I am actually of a lower order thinking group:

Quality of written queries


4 - Queries interrelate information in several fields and call for inferences or higher order


thinking


3 - Queries interrelate number of fields, do not always require inferences or higher order


thinking skills


2 - Queries interrelate only two fields, call for classification learning


1 - Queries related to single field, require only "looking up" skills

[Extract from my lecturer's set of rubrics.]

It pains me to admit that I was only targetting 3. But noo... she's not allowing me to get away with it. But, my queries did interrelate a number of fields. Seriously, I don't know why she's doing this to me. And, I feel really bad about being such an idiot that she ends up having to do most of the work.

But, like my mum said, she's ALMOST old enough to be my mum... eat salt more than I eat rice. Just because we're taking the course together, does not make me any smarter, or wiser. I shdn't complain when someone wants to help me get an A.

Crap... and frankly, I don't understand why I am feeling bad. It's good that she's forever targetting the 4s in the rubric system. It's just me... "turn cow's horn tip"

It's been quite some time since I have decided to blog twice in a day. Ratings would probably go up since I am going to be stationed back in office again. Wahahaha....
