"New and Improved" HES PIA

(That on the heels of a different TA giving me effusive praise and telling me I had a gift in all-caps the semester before. And I've always gotten the best scores on English courses throughout my academic career. So I don't think there was some shortcoming on my part.) Not happy that this person now also has the power to shred my Discussion Board score. Not happy that I have to post some long, argumentative expository mini-essay EVERY SINGLE WEEK. Not happy that I'm paying four times as much for the privilege either.

I FEEL YOUR PAIN! I've been in class four days and am very seriously thinking of bailing while I'm still able to get the full refund. The increased price seems to have opened the door to a massive increase in the course's workload...YIKES! Do you know what the "Diagnostic Essay" is all about? Mine is due Sept. 27th, and they have yet to enlighten anyone as to what the heck it is...They're also late in posting the topic for the first "mini essay"...

It hasn't helped that the increase in price evidently weeded out everyone but highly-experienced teachers with Master's Degrees. Twenty people in my group, yet only eight showed up to introduce themselves on the Discussion Board. Yup, that's my entire class..uhhhh, except for the very, very stressed-out me... Blush

Yup...Feeling kind of Sick .
