Is this SCRIPTSpeak?

[AfterWind]

At university, today, the teacher complained about the number of students attending her classes and that she had to repeat herself many times because of it.

I rebutted this argument saying that she should hustle more because that is the purpose of a teacher, to teach others and make it interesting, make it stick and repeat as many times as needed.

Instead of agreeing with me she started saying: "Is it my job to repeat the same sentence to every and each of you individually?".

I replied to that with: "Yes, of course, 5, 10, 20, 100 times if necessary, that is your purpose as a teacher"

She started laughing... and then asked: "As a student, what are your responsibilities?" and I replied: "In the current day and age, minimum responsibility is to just pass the course. (get 50%)"

At that point she started defending her stance saying that why should she do so much work and we shouldn't. Most other students were saying that I don't know how hard it is to teach... at that point, I stopped arguing, realized there's no point.

Is this SCRIPTSpeak? Have you encountered this before?

No.

But it sounds like a bunch of people doing stuff they resent, the teacher and students alike. In other words, they are there because of the SCRIPT and would rather be doing other things. The teacher forgot she is there to educate, and the students forgot they are there to learn.

Sad.
