[Year 12 SofDev] Thanks to all

[Vera Cook]

Hi Andrew

Really sorry to lose you these lists are amazing but I understand why you are leaving things are different not sure how long I will survive now. So working on my Masters in Artificial Intelligence and then Phd.

Hope you are ok yes it is becoming less popular and just about had enough of teaching with the behaviour of some students now and the increase in work load.

Don’t blame people leaving I used to love teaching and was happy to have knocked back a double degree in electrical engineering but lately things have changed and workload has increased. There is no longer a life balance so I admit getting close to give it up as well.


All the best in your new work.

Vera

Hi All

Thanks to Kevork for these lists - they have been invaluable to me

There are only a few people left who have been teaching in these subjects since Kevork started these email lists (and now one less).

I know how useful to me these emails have been including the material shared, the peer review, the general camaraderie and the knowledge that I am not alone in the sea.


Thanks also to everyone who has ever contributed - you are all part of the community. Sadly email is no longer trendy and so there are fewer regular contributors and in fact there are fewer teachers of these subjects

It has been more than a year since I have even been in a classroom and I really cannot face going back to how classrooms are nowadays (not like the olden days in the mid 1980’s)

So farewell

Andrew Shortell

(old and retired)
