Every time I hear Doug Emhoff's last name I think of the Monsanto House of the Future (MHOF). Just me?

@BW_Jones "A biden"?

@azshutter Congratulations, i can't wait to read it!

[LeksaLee李可心 @Leksa_Lee]

@byeliseam Thank your for all your reviewing!! Curious if you have found that non-perfect articles also get R&Rs at top journals? My over-edited, super-careful articles always get rejected at top journals and accepted easily everywhere else. Curious if its just that my topic isn't sexy...

@kemi_aa Frankly, changing my rubric this way made me realize that all my professors coming up graded me wrong - they gave me A's cause i could write a good paper - a skill i didn't even learn in their class. Grade them for what they learned in YOUR class, that's good pedagogy anyway 🙂

[LeksaLee李可心 @Leksa_Lee]

@kemi_aa It's all about the rubric! Give more points for strong, specific uses of class materials, fewer for demonstrating general knowledge. Add new category: "writing style cohesion" - if they generate AI and then edit it, this score is low

[LeksaLee李可心 @Leksa_Lee]

@tsmullaney The learning science shows that summarizing what you learned by writing a short paragraph raises retention by 30% (Lang 2016). Reading responses were evidence-based (if a bitch to grade). But yeah, this was the semester many students gave over fully to AI, so what now?

[Charlie Eaton @CharlieEatonPhD]

Huh, my book is back on the Amazon best seller list. Are people suddenly interested in endowments for some reason?

[LeksaLee李可心 @Leksa_Lee]

Going through and grading everyone's AI drivel. Catching myself giving credit just when I can tell someone actually did the reading, even when the answer's wrong.

How's your finals week going?

@TiffanyKWayne I start by telling my students about the time i got a consulting job when Round 2 of the interview process was a mini research project - with cites! Many still do it wrong, but at least i had their attention for that moment.

[LeksaLee李可心 @Leksa_Lee]

@Cassie_Boness My assignment: 3 options, 1 is an interview. "Interview someone connected to China. Record if they are comfortable." Student decides to interview his Chinese prof. Forwards me Chinese prof's email: "Please ask Dr. Lee if it is ok if we don't record." New rule next year: no profs.

Me: Can I move this table?

Microsoft Word: Yes. I've also altered your margins, converted all "a" to $, printed page 4, and hidden one of your shoes. Is there anything else I can help you with?

Does anyone actually LIKE endnotes?

@kaitlinsm1th @AcademicChatter Love it! I want to try #2. Like, what happens if you say at work: "You're implying that "x." That hurts my feelings and I'm not sure it's true."

@thephdstory After 5 yrs on the job market, I served on my first committee. I learned so much (and had to do and re-do a lot of the work that I botched the first time). If you're not at a top-tier R-1, it's about fit, fit, and fit.

Writing an exam for a class that, if taught anytime in the 50 years leading up to 2022, would not have had an exam.

We all live in ChatGPTland now.
