A way to give the less able students a chance at scoring at least over 10% in their final mark through a shitty piece they found on the internet.
'Thanks to Coursework i can get an extra 15 percent, but have no life besides the work.'

the single, most tedious waste of time ever because:

a it barely counts for anything
b it is stupidly long
c you are alwaya given one night less than you need to do it
and d if i was born one academic year later i wouldnt have to be not doing it now to write this defenition
i got my history coursework today, its due in two days

the most torturous thing you can ever be given!
it's given to young innocent teenagers, and builds up and up until you have no control of it, it ends up with a life of it's own, whilst ruining yours and OBLITERATES your free time.
teachers sadistically like to give it to students during the holidays (christmas, summer) and expect it to be done...
i already have 5 pieces due in for tomorow that i havent done!
kev: hey u wana come chill with us tomoro nyt??
tom: nah man, i cant, coursework to do.

something that doesn't really gain you any marks at all - teachers just enjoy laughing at you whilst you spend every waking hour frantically doing it, lose your sanity and then, inevitably, your hair.

solution: write copious ammounts of crap to punish the poor sod who has to mark it. mwah hah.
...I have chosen this hypothesis because it is now 3am and my brain has actually just given up, slipped out of my ear and run off with the cat.
