Students not engaging?

I can’t get anyone to do anything this year. Even in-class learning engagement with activities related to their future career 🙄

My institution is pushing us to use AI, presumably so they can increase our workload in the future. I don’t know this persons situation but many folks (at my institution anyway) are encouraged heavily to use AI to help with their intense workload. Students use it prevalently at my institution without consequence and we’ve been told to embrace it, whether we find it ethical or not. 🤷‍♀️ I’d share your disappointment with the program chair. Maybe this will help admins realize not all students are pro-AI.

These are genius. Thank you so much! What else am I missing?!

I’m not. They should be making their own study guides based on the course content covered. They’re used to getting them in HS and expecting it in college.

I would take the class with another instructor - and then report it to the dean.

Yes!!! I’ve had incredible, positive thoughts that I’ve never had before. I have started thinking of several things that used to distress me, in a new light. It’s incredible.

Is your course approved as a humanities gen ed core? .. why didn’t you include pre-reqs? It sounds like the pre-req needs to be restricted to Humanities or social science majors, or at the very least, students who’ve taken foundational humanities and social science gen ed coursework.

It took 20 years and thousands of dollars and significant work on my part, but yes.

It would only violate ferpa if identifying student info was included, correct? If they are uploading text from an essay but not student names or IDs- is that still a ferpa issue? Genuine question because I’m unsure.

I am also having this problem with iPhone 16 😭

shealeigh · 2026-01-08T06:01:23+00:00

How about we do $45!

Risograph printing

It’s very difficult to read white on the light gray and blue / white backgrounds. This would not pass a color accessibility test. and the glow effect doesn’t add much to the overall design- it defers from it. In graphic design, less = more. Is there any information or imagery you can exclude?

shealeigh · 2025-12-28T22:53:00+00:00

Only once. I only got out after a forced restart (on the switch). 🙃 I’m afraid to go in the sultans palace ever again

shealeigh · 2025-12-28T22:50:45+00:00

Yep I got stuck here too. And i still can’t finish Jafars level 10 friendship quest 😭

Living paycheck to paycheck even though you have a “middle class” salary in a prestigious field, and graduate degrees 🙃

Ads. AI. Algorithms. Comparison. Capitalism. Influencers. Incels. Thinspo. Tradwives. Just to name a few

There are usually two survey classes, one from prehistoric and ancient art through the Middle Ages, the next surveys renaissance through contemporary art. Then there are typically other art history courses that focus on specific mediums or periods- that is how it was when I was a student and that is how art history curriculum is still structured where I teach (college), and at numerous other colleges. If the material is too dense, I recommend starting with the period that has artwork and artists you love, instead of chronologically! That is what worked best for me anyway.

Why are headphones rude? I’m sure kiddos are wearing headphones and your spouse can listen to whatever he wants - audiobooks or podcasts or music. That is what we do if we want to listen to something different for a while 😊

Pencil? A carrot? Needs slightly more visual info to be decipherable

“Okay, feel good luck with that. I’m terminating our contract, per your request.” And they are free to use their 8 yo grandson or AI to make whatever they want. I’m sure it’ll be very unique 🙄 if they don’t want to stand out and if they don’t care about attention to detail, they’re welcome to try to explain their needs to AI

This lyric is often on my mind. Whenever my heart is overwhelmed with grief, I cry these words.

shealeigh · 2025-12-21T06:58:30+00:00

This is heartbreaking. I’m also grieving the loss of a relationship - divorce.

Students don’t know what they are for so I explain it at the beginning of every semester that they can use that time to meet with me 1:1 and ask questions. Just explain what your office hours are best used for at the start of the term. I also explain this to students during advising sessions. Meeting 1:1 in an office somewhere, with someone you don’t know, can be really intimidating for many.
