Lost all desire to learn

Hey all. I've been a university student for a few years and I've honestly lost my desire to learn, or at least in that setting. I find that my uni focuses greatly on teaching syntax while leaving out semantics. The name that I've given their java assignments are "fill in the methods." The reason for this is that the professors type up an outline of a class and you, the student, fills in the blanks. It is a form of teaching that rapes creativity. I hate it.

I'm working on a homework assignment meant to teach recursion. Its just another fill in the methods assignment. I don't understand why the class can't be given a problem to solve like the tower of hanoi. This would give the student the freedom to code as he sees fit.

Even though I say I've lost my desire to learn I like downloading from MIT's opencourseware. I'm watching a lecture on SICP that's from the 80s. Its pretty sad that a lecture from the 80s can capture my attention better than my professor can. I don't know, maybe its me. I enjoy programming and solving problems in general but the way I'm being taught just sucks.

I don't know where I'm going this but long story short I'm thinking of going to a different university. I've heard good things about Western Governor's University. All online so I'll have more freedom. Although I can't guarantee that I'll be filling in the methods there too. I'm still waiting to talk to a guy that is actually enrolled in their computer science program.

Your and moran. I hope you drop out, then spend the rest of your life coding web-sights in PHP.

In case you refuse to drop out: you should be able to complete the "fill-in the blanks" assignments in under fifteen minutes each, then study the things that interest you, on your own.

1) Since it bothers you, obviously you are not able to complete the fill-in-the blanks assignments in under fifteen minutes, which means that your technique sucks and you should do dumb fill-in the blanks assignments until it improves. Maybe, just maybe your professors know better than you think, and will begin to give you more interesting assignments after that. Until then your complaints are ridiculous, you're like a wannabe painter who can't properly mix colors and complains that training to mix colors is boring and "rapes creativity". You know what else rapes creativity? Being an entitled inept dumbfuck, that's what.

2) In fact it's impossible to "teach creativity". So the farther your assignments will deviate from the fill-in the blanks kind, the less they will look like assignments, e.g. the less tightly your progress will be controlled, monitored and graded, up until the point where you only have to make a program that produces the right answer and everything else is up to you. It's called fucking creativity for a reason, retard. Also, you're expected to be progressively more self-taught as time goes, with your Uni providing convenient housing and maybe some advice. Again, your complaints are ridiculous, "why don't you spoonfeed me creativity?", lol.
