Holy shit OP, you're a real asshole. I suggest you get that stick out of your ass and just teach a kid something awesome instead of being an autistic retard.

He shouldn't write that on an assignment.

>> No.7108362

>>7108326

example: your student wrote the following

A=B
B=C
C=D

therefore A=D

with your correction it looks like this:

B=A
C=D

therefore A=D

But it says to show two things are equal.

Thinking that you have to start with the left hand side and get to the right is a problem that a lot of people seem to have, especially when going from right to left can sometimes be so much quicker (look at the number of proofs that rely on something like "add and subtract x").

>> No.7108570

Your 2 looks like a 7, and "circular" looks like "ciirular"

That's my homework. OP is a shitty teacher. I tried to transfer to a different class but my advisor told me to just deal with it because they're firing him after this semester due to low student reviews.

Why don't you just talk to the kid instead?

>>7108780
The first OP said he was a TA. I don't know if this is the same guy though

>>7108782
The r lacks only a dot to make it an i. That second c is missing the only thing that distinguishes it from an r. Even if it did look like circular, you can't dispute the fact that the 2 looks like a 7, which is worse than any sloppiness on the student's part

>> No.7108833

>>7108783
That would be mean.

>> No.7108838

To be honest, all of those scribbles of different tactics to try and prove this, scrawled out, and followed by the sudden "light bulb" moment of "Oh, shit, THAT'S how you do this!" at the end with the short, neat proof, is kind of beautiful.

I wish my students were confident enough to turn in work that wasn't neatly erased and uniform. Let alone that cheeky "proven" and the "I love math :)" statement that put a smile on my face. That takes balls.

That assignment shows the mind of an incredibly bright student. Hope that kid gets his PhD in whatever at age 27 and gets tenure before OP does.

Ignore it, the scribbles clearly indicate what is meant to be read and what isn't. Homework isn't for you its for the students they should be able to go back and look at their homework and not only see what the correct answer is but what mistakes they might be prone to making.
