Students addressing the professor as Miss or Mrs. instead of Doctor or professor Pulling out the newspaper in class. Using offensive language during computer chat exercises. Refusing to work in groups with unpopular students. Submitting work written by other UCF students or taken directly from published works Lying when confronted with evidence of cheating. Open book cheating in very large classes Counterfeiting ring to students using photocopiers and scanners to reproduce stamp proving attendance.
Some students harass others.
Failing to read assignments and having nothing to contribute to class discussion. Students not knowing basic information provided in syllabus and other handouts. Students not taking notes, when it is obvious they should Lack of shame in not doing assigned work Lack of critical thinking skills and reluctance to acquire those skills Students not having a clue about how to write a research paper. I do enjoy, however teaching them this. It is well worth it.
