I am a teacher and therefore not working for the summer and I have lots of time on my hands. So I'm able to finish a course in a couple of weeks, but I worry about being accused of using AI or paying someone to take the course, which of course I'd never do.

Thoughts?

Lots of work? Are they interesting? Practical? Etc.

Has anyone taken it? How are the assignments? Readings? Marking? Etc.

My take (in no particular order):

-Boston Rob bashing the Rotus after tribe swap.

-Pretty much everything Colton said about Bill, Christina and Leif

-Courtney saying Denise didn't deserve the million because she sucks at life. (I can't believe she didn't take more flack for that.)

-Boston Rob's "Naaasty" comment about Patricia

-Corrine's FTC speech to Sugar.

-Half of the reactions to Jenna M quitting (When Boston Rob is the most tactful, you know you've gone too far.)

-Everyone on Chapera's reaction to Sue quitting except Alicia and Amber. (Considering how cold Alicia had been a few days prior about Jenna's quit, the fact that she was the most tactful is telling.)

-Alicia's comment comparing her special ed students to a tribemate that she claimed had an IQ of zero. (Still not sure how she avoided getting fired over that.)

-Dan and Will's comments towards Shirin.

What did I miss?

Edit: Forgot "I'll hit her so hard that damn leg'll fly off."

It seems like a staple on almost every kid's show, so I always wondered why none of my teachers actually did it.

Is it something people actually do in schools, or only on TV? (Perhaps it's an easy way to advance the plot using child characters instead of the adults.)

Or perhaps it's something only popular in the USA since that's where most of put TV shows come from.

I'm considering doing it next year, but wonder if perhaps there's a reason people don't that I'm not aware of.

Thoughts?

How did you get in? What was it like? Was it what it seems to be in the media? Were you scared? Etc.

I know it's impossible to say for sure but what do you think? I have some financial decisions to make in the next year and I doubt the contracts will be settled by then but what kind of retro pay might come our way eventually?

I remember reading that Varner was but he's since said he's full on gay. So is it only those three?

Preps, gradebooks, etc?

I have both quals but still don't actually know what I would be doing all day.

I know guidance counsellors help with course selection snd college/uni applications, and arrange for postsecondairy institutions to make presentations, but what about the rest of the year?

As for coop, what's involved other than finding places for students to do them and arranging transportation? Safely presentations perhaps?

*I am not trying to imply that these teachers do nothing. I know they work. Just curious what that work actually involves.

How bad is the driving to/in London? I've been to Waterloo. Is it similar?

What kinds of criteria do you use, besides "Proper finger placement" and "Letters are neat"? How do you do KU, T, Comm, and Apllication?

Assuming that you don't have a schedule of all phys ed or something, which level is more work? I'm tempted to say elementary since high school teachers get way more prep time but curious what others think.

If you've taught high school, which subjects?

How does it compare to your pay at the end of your career?

Before you lose your perm status and your seniority?
