This goes for people on their laptops and using facebook and -blam!-[/quote]To be fair, if I'm going to goof off on my Laptop (which is all of the time, in fact I'm on my laptop in lecture at the moment), I go to the back of the Lecture Hall and minimize my exposure to other students.[/quote]
That is respectable and considerate to the students. But as a teacher/professor it's nonetheless insulting.
I ask myself why people like you decide to even come to class if you aren't going to go for its purpose. If I were you, if I didn't feel like (or didn't need to) going to class, I just wouldn't go. It's easier on you, too. There's no time in a class where you can divert your attention to a screen. If the class is so slow/easy/boring, don't go to class.
:([/quote]The fact of the matter is that I don't have to type down every single word that the professor says to pass the class. I type down the main ideas, and I type down that which I'll have problems remembering, but a lot of the elaboration and such isn't essential or is easily memorized. I understand it's quite useful for some people, but I'm the sort of guy who hates having his hands idle, so when I'm not taking notes I'm discussing stuff on Bnet or looking at other things on the internet or I program.
I'm a Senior Computer Science student, and this is what works for me. Skipping class is definitely a terrible idea, and is either a sign of lazyness or overconfidence.[/quote]
Don't take your laptop. Take a pen/pencil and write down the notes. Your hands won't be idle. And then there's infamous doodling when you're not paying attention.
