  9. Who are the people you are talking too?

  10. Uniformity? Good morning class!

  11. “Some people are different than the rest of us … … and so are the rest of us!” Clive James

  12. Diversity (level & ability) Good morning class!

  13. I am a nice person. I really like you and the course and I am getting a lot out of it! Typical Ideal Participant

  14. I already know everything you are going to talk about – in fact, I am going to correct every mistake you make just to demonstrate how good I am and just how bad you are!

  15. I know I only paid £30 to be on the course today but I expect it to be like any £1,000 commercial day-course. Printed Materials Well-Structured Something I can Use Professional Delivery

  16. I don’t know how to do this! I should be able to do this! It can’t be my fault! It must be that this is a bad course.

  17. Are all academics good at this?

  18. I know you want me to give them a beginners guide to Microsoft Word … … but in the afternoon we can get onto multiple mail merges and VBA scripting! Over-ambition

  19. I don’t really want to do this and I am going to teach this class exactly as I do all of my other classes to full-time students – and if they don’t like it … tough! Wrong Attitude

  20. I don’t really want to do this because it is even worse than sub-degree level … I’m going to show them how smart I am and just how dumb they are. Wrong Attitude

  21. Sorry I forgot about the course and I’m working at home today! Just send them home and reschedule. Wrong Priority

  22. Wrong Person Here is a textbook. Spend the next two hours reading it and then we will talk about it. Schh..

  23. I’m not very well so I can’t come in today – sorry!
