Mar23Moris Dragi prijateliProcitav i mi se bsenidue sto bi reklo zargonski. Inaku sakam da vi napisam edna molba da se pozanimavate so makata na studentite na Praven a i drugite kolku sum informiran ne se nesto ponapred. Eve pocna vtor semestar i internet starnicite na praven moze da gi otvorite i da gi vidite SILABUSite za predmetite. So cest na isklucoci nema SIlabus po sekoj predmet, nema internet adresa na profesorot ili barem asistent, pa nema ni priemni denovi koga se na profesorite nekoja osnovna informacija. Ete na primer vo silabusite na nekoi profesori pisuva primen den vtornik a vo silabusot sreda i moze da se sluci da bacite vrata. Znaci edna inicijativa da se azuriraat stranite so dokumentite tamu, isto taka vo EKTS studenstkoto dosie figuriraat penzionirani profesori po predmeti koi gi predavaat drugi profesori . Nekoj treba da seden i da go sraboti toa sto se veli eden presek i azuriranje i tolku.Inaku nakgolem problem so ova imaat vonrednite studenti i onie vonrednite od Proekt 45. Zemes sloboden den i doagjas na univerzitet no se izmenila rabotata ne e kako vo silabusot, a informaciite se crpat od internet stranata. Dobro vonrednite studenti se soocuvaat i so drugi problemi na neinformiranost iako toa se kompenzira so druzenjeto so redovni studenti i so samoinicijativno otvoranje na Facebook na koj se adnuvaat site i se razmenuvaat informacii no toa e samoinicijativno i neorganizirano. Nekako na Praven , a ne e iskluceno i na drugite univerziteti koi imaat svoi stranici neseriozno se gleda na internet stranata za istata treba da se odredi nekoj postojano da ja azurira so informacii korisni za studentite pa makar bile od tipot deneska ke nema struja na Fakultetot. Studentite se gladni za informacii, a ne internet stranica koja e suvoparna i zavisi od voljata na asistentot i profesorot dali ke napise do EKTS za da objavat. Sepak treba toa da bide edno aktivno mesto na koe eden student bi mozel da se informira duri i za brojot na kabinetot na profesorot. Pa cenam deka ke go razgledate mojot komentar i mozebi od nekoj vas agol ke go iskoristite da se mrdne malku internet stranata napred so poveke informacii od korist za site i voedno nema da doagja do nepotrebni nedorazbiranja i dopolnitelni i dopolnitelni prasanja do profesorite i iasistentite po hodnici i kabineti. So ova sakam da vi kazam da posvetite edna strana na nekoi mali i sitni glavobolki so koi se soocuvaat vonredni i redovni studenti na univerzitetot se zaradi neorganiziranosta na fakultetot koj so malku poveke volja ke si ovozmozi poefektno i pofunkcionalno studiranje. Ete pozdrav i so zadovolstvo ve citam.
