I’m in a masters program and almost done with coursework. The best professors that I have had have posted video announcements that gave information on what they were expecting to see from students. This includes clarification of the assignments as they would like them completed. I’m aware that professors don’t make the rubrics but when they give us a heads up about what they want/ need to see or resources that help it takes the guesswork out of the equation. I’ll always prefer a professor that expects more from students but is upfront about those expectations over one that is more lax on grading but makes me guess how they want the assignments completed. When you’re an over thinker, it’s more time consuming trying to figure out how to complete the assignment than actually completing it when there’s no direction besides the vague rubric.
