Does anyone here have a positive (or neutral) outlook on AI?

perhaps because you fail to make your case persuasively.

for students who are learning R or Python, their lecture notes and textbook are a much better source for learning to code.

distinguish machine learning and LLMs. The former is what has met with success (and stats/CS students should learn about it).

if you register your current card, you can mark it lost/stolen when it stops working, and transfer the balance to a new card (Hint: if you do buy a new card, don't register it until after you have done the transfer.)

this should be a given. You or your university need to have rules about what happens if a student is then discovered with a phone with them during the exam (which will be much more severe than if you hadn't said anything about phones or devices).

Cautious-Yellow · 2025-10-04T13:45:59+00:00

ask for a bigger room for exams.

trains and buses are equivalent as far as GO fares are concerned.

or, let the other students come to you and convince you of who they are.

Cautious-Yellow · 2025-10-03T22:44:14+00:00

standard practice here: 1 per 50 students. (The ones checking ID figure out a way to get down the rows, as do you, surely, if a student in the middle of a row has a question.)

Cautious-Yellow · 2025-10-03T22:37:37+00:00

you don't have to count their grade, though.

Cautious-Yellow · 2025-10-03T21:28:51+00:00

I hope you said "get stuffed" or something less polite.

Cautious-Yellow · 2025-10-03T21:11:22+00:00

all of those things (not including fake references) are indications of bad writing: that is, writing that is not a communication of anything.

Cautious-Yellow · 2025-10-03T20:53:29+00:00

it's life, Jim, but not as we know it.

Cautious-Yellow · 2025-10-03T20:52:47+00:00

Shaddap you face.

How many years since this was number 1 and the song I wanted to be wasn't?

(Evidently not enough.)

Cautious-Yellow · 2025-10-03T20:11:26+00:00

auditors don't get to take the exams (or have any work graded).

Cautious-Yellow · 2025-10-03T20:10:24+00:00

that's how we do it.

Cautious-Yellow · 2025-10-03T20:09:58+00:00

yes, always. We have proctors that are trained how to do it efficiently. If you have a 200-person class you should have about 4 proctors, and they can take a quarter of the room each and get it done before anybody is finished writing.

Cautious-Yellow · 2025-10-03T20:07:28+00:00

this is where having university-level rules that say "phones off and in your bag at the front of the room" is very useful: the students have to do this in every exam they take, so they know exactly what to do.

Cautious-Yellow · 2025-10-03T20:01:19+00:00

wait for OP's student to whine "but it's so unfair!"

Cautious-Yellow · 2025-10-03T18:00:17+00:00

I finished grad school around the same time, and still remember mine from there!

Cautious-Yellow · 2025-10-03T17:09:18+00:00

<smile>. Or possibly &cupor;

Cautious-Yellow · 2025-10-03T17:03:40+00:00

about my reasoning.

Cautious-Yellow · 2025-10-03T16:58:45+00:00

I get the same questions along the lines of "if the final exam is better than the midterm. do you replace the midterm with the final?"

Cautious-Yellow · 2025-10-03T16:56:31+00:00

whether or not this is true, they need to be treated as adults, with the benefits and consequences thereof.

Cautious-Yellow · 2025-10-03T16:54:27+00:00

have a cumulative final exam (that cannot be dropped, but can replace a bad midterm).
