This happened today. My class had a spanish test, which most kids got a F. My spanish teacher got angry because we didnt do a study guide THAT SHE NEVER ASSIGNED, and said we couldnt do a retake. 5 of the kids who got a F threw their study guide she had JUST ASSIGNED away and she let 4 kids retake it even though they hadnt done the study guide she HADNT ASSIGNED. The other kids who threw them away got confused they tried to clarify the situation with the teacher, only for her Dimentia to kick in and got into a screaming match with the other kids. It was pretty entertaining though.

The teacher gave us a rubric to follow to write an essay about planning to achieve success. Most of the class followed the rubric. The class after the paper was due, she tells us that most students did the paper wrong. The rubric told us to describe five character traits important to success and examples of using them. According to the teacher, there was another online rubric that told us the "examples" had to be how we (the writer) exhibited said traits. We also had to list three obstacles that could get in the way of success and how to overcome those.
As the teacher gave us the assignment she gave a lot more direction about how to write the five traits, so naturally those are what most people focused on. Come to find out the teacher wanted a paper mainly about how we exhibited those traits. As this was a serious assignment and most people were trying very hard on it, it was taken as a research paper by the majority of the class, reasonably so. She also accused many students of plagiarism when they just did research on character values (because, as said, it was a serious assignment).
Everyone who did not complete the paper to the teacher's satisfaction (instead doing it how the paper rubric she gave us directed us) had to redo it in a shorter two-paragraph version. Still afterward, more kids had to redo it. It was a very frustrating experience, given the amount of effort some of these students put in.
