I've heard repeatedly that my input is good, I just don't do it enough. To be honest, when my 2F12 TA said that to me, I had initially assumed she was just taking pity on me since being a first-year student taking mostly second- and third-year classes, I am at a huge disadvantage. However, a TA would only be harming me in the long run by lying, so. The problem isn't what I say, it's that half the time I don't say it.
I am not great at talking! Especially in such a structured setting that literally determines my grades. I've always been much better at writing than verbal communication, but I know full well that I'm going to need to learn how to articulate myself without tripping over my words or talking too fast or thinking I sound like the town idiot and discouraging myself into shutting up. If all my seminars were first-year seminars, I'd have some leeway. In the seminars I am in now, it's expected that the students have overcome their seminar shyness and can contribute.
Have mercy on me, TAs. :(
UPDATE ON PAPERGATE
My film assignment for Labour 1F90 is finished! I only went a little above the recommended page count and didn't really go out of my way to edit it. I doubt my TA for the class will be so much reading what I write as reading her perception of what I write, so whatever!
...I suppose I should finally look at my mark for my film assignment last semester.
STATE OF THE PAPERGATE
Good night.
