We need to also rethink our grading approach as well. Do they only get one shot at something or do we give them room to fail and keep working at the concept until they master it? More time consuming for all, and not always possible per discipline maybe, but arguably better for education.

Students are under (or feel they are) such pressure to maintain perfection that I will often see them in tears over a 92 vs a 100. Many use AI out of laziness/time/etc., and many out of misplaced idea that it will perfect their work. That they aren’t capable and that there is no room for failure.

I know, I get that. Same here. Strange how these big corps don’t have any money to spend on local news anymore. Or is it they’re too busy building national propaganda scripts? Come to think of it, maybe we’re lucky this slipped through at all.

I’m here for the turnout and outrage, but abc can miss me with its serious lack of in depth reporting. Dang.

I was *just* on a rant about this yesterday! Whole system is unethical, unsustainable, predatory, and inequitable.

Who the heck microwaves onions??? I’m sorry, that ain’t right. Madness indeed!

The only meaningful connection with students is in a discussion board or a once a week curated video lecture. Students can punt their way all the way through that. Unless they really try, they aren’t learning - they’re completing. You see the results in their classrooms.

While convenient for many professionals, the online degree programs became an obvious money maker to higher ed and turned into a whole thing. Now they can pump out designed and canned content, pay an adjunct pennies to babysit, and rake in $300-900/crh to boot.

Notice how you could argue this refers to either side here because it totally doesn’t even fucking matter.

Translation: they want their planes back so they can go home for the holidays and fundraise off the “fact” that they made a deal to reopen the government and blame the other side. Nothing meaningful will change and folks will still starve, suffer, and (try to) fund their own healthcare. It’s BS.

Wait. Which is it? They have enough votes to reopen on this garbage ir t most of them will vote against it? That’s confusing.
Also, BS.
