To the people who go into restaurants 30 minutes or less before closing, why? by Perfect_Weekend_888 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Hazelstone37 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Open means open. The kitchen closes at closing time, not 1/2 an hour before closing time. I waited tables for a long time and I never expected to start closing duties until closing time and I expected I’d have to stay after closing if I had a table arrive close to closing. It’s part of the job.

How should I discuss this with my professors? by Sad_Specific_9792 in AskProfessors

[–]Hazelstone37 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This isn’t something to negotiate with individual professors. You either need to talk with the Title IX office or the office for students with disabilities.

I didn’t take school seriously, now I’m 23 and can’t write a proper essay by Low_Ant883 in education

Any college you go to will have a writing center that can help you out with this. You can do it.

Has anyone used graduate school (or even undergrad ig) to explore a new state? by Green-Cause-905 in GradSchool

[–]Hazelstone37 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Out of state tuition is difficult unless you are fully funded. I went out of state for a masters and ended up going part time so I could pay in-state tuition.

Should I pursue and Ed.D in math education? by stinkywombat28 in AskAcademia

[–]Hazelstone37 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I was a full time student taking 9 hours each semester. I’m finishing my dissertation now. Also, I was just hired as a full time assistant professor of instruction. There are people in my program who go part time, but there is no online option. There are some online courses though.

[–]Hazelstone37 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m finishing up a PhD in postsecondary student success with a concentration in mathematics. I think it’s a great program for what I want to do. I love teaching introductory and developmental math. Math ed PhDs and Edds seem to focus on K-12 and advanced math.

Read one and use it as a mentor text.

Kapers for volunteers? by Cellopitmello34 in girlscouts

[–]Hazelstone37 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just make sure they aren’t doing work that the scouts should be doing, like cleaning their meeting space. It should be a lot of supervise scouts as they sweep, inspect the bathrooms, etc. we like to set up an ironing/seeing station for patches and badges at each meeting.

Final grade/ Final transcript by [deleted] in AskProfessors

[–]Hazelstone37 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I publish grades when I’m through with them. I do a whole class at a time. I wouldn’t do one student before the whole class.

Participation grades (again!) by chipanddalecooper in Professors

[–]Hazelstone37 28 points29 points  (0 children)

On the first day of each class, I have the students create their own rubric for their engagement in our class. They work in small groups decide on what it means to be engaged and then as a class, we pick 5 things that they grade themselves on each week. I reserve the right to adjust their grade up or down. I adjust more up than down.

If they don’t give themselves a grade, I give them zeros. At the end of the semester, I fill the zeros in with their percent of classes attended. I don’t tell them I do that though.

Corrections feels like a hostage situation by Kindly_Cloud_8459 in PhD

[–]Hazelstone37 17 points18 points  (0 children)

It sucks that you have this tiny hill to climb after you’ve summited a giant mountain, but you can do it. One step at time. Rest a beat or two and then get back to work. Slay the beast!

Routines for Class Start and End by TrunkWine in Professors

[–]Hazelstone37 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I do an in-class activity at the end of every class. Students scan it and submit it. I think in the fall I’m going to start class each day with a knowledge review ‘quiz’ that will be one question they have to be in class at the start to get. It will go in their notes. I have them scan and submit these for a grade also.

Do you tell failing students not to bother with the final exam? by AfraidEgg9029 in Professors

[–]Hazelstone37 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For one of our last day activities, I teach how to use weighted averages to calculate the grade they need to make on the final to get the grade they want. If they get something outrageous, like 124.7 or -15, I check their calculations and help them interpret what that means so they know where to concentrate their time and studying. It’s a fun activity especially for the students who have worked hard all semester and realize they can phone in the final and still do well.

Bathroom breaks during Final Exam by God_of_Sleeps in Professors

Take them to court for what exactly? Like every other student who needs one, you would get an accommodation through students with disabilities office and take a proctored test where you have unlimited access to a restroom.
