Boring lecture

Fall break is here! It's kinda cool to have such break in the middle of the semester besides thanksgiving. JSU doesn't have fall break so this is something unique for me. A semester is shorter at JSU but still good to have a little break.

As I'm writing this post, I just got out of class. This particular class is so boring. And I don't know for sure the reason of boredom.

The professor, she knows stuff she is talking about. Her lecture is well organized. It's not a simple summary of the chapter from the textbook.

Another class, where an adjunct teacher gives a lecture, is also lecture-based, but more interesting. The both classes use Power Point. The slideshow is prepared well too.

Maybe because nature of the class subject itself is boring. But the other class has some theory too. Actually last week, the stuff we learned was very theoretical.

Maybe because this boring class lacks real examples. The instructor of the other class actually works with a nonprofit. But, even a theory-centered lecture class can be interesting, and I have taken such classes when I was undergrad.

Maybe because of her way of speaking? Her voice is relatively small and I sometimes have hard time to understand her.

Well, sometimes she just read through things on the slideshow. The lecture is not as concise as the other class.

That's right, conciseness is the key I think. If not concise, there is no point of lecture.

Now, how do I stay focus on this class...
