      Improper formatting. No citations outside of indirect, incomplete citations of the Bible. No synthesis of thought from those passages. Heavily biased language throughout…

      Id say charitably its worth a 30/100?

      That was a great breakdown, watched it earlier today. I didn’t expect much but honestly if I’d been told it was a Reddit comment instead of a psychology essay, I would have believed it without question.

    Can confirm. People here play really stupid political games. At least we got rid of that ass hat Ryan Walters though…

        Last I heard, the replacement was way better if only because the bar was so low, what have I missed? Is it someone other than the temporary replacement or is the temporary replacement bad for reasons I may not have heard of? Genuine question because I haven’t heard anything about in a while.

          He fucking moron. First order of business was to remove the late start that kids had for Monday’s. Every study in the world has shown that kids who start later in the day do better at school. This fucking asshole says that kids were not getting enough school time.

          Fucking late start which was only on Monday’s was for 8.40 instead of the normal 8.20. Oh he also eliminated snow days, and no virtual learning.

          Swear didn’t think could get worse but Governor Shit found a way to appoint someone worse.

            That’s so disappointing to hear. But I guess it is on brand at this point to turn out that way unfortunately.

    Let me guess: That student was home-schooled by some overconfident religious nut parents and never saw a real school from the inside?

      https://www.ibtimes.co.uk/university-oklahoma-professor-says-failed-essay-does-not-answer-questions-this-assignment-1759504

      Student wrote a dogshit essay at university, professor marked it as a fail because it was dogshit, student uses right wing tactics of screaming like a baby about discrimination to appeal the grade, university suspends professor due to political pressure, other professors back up original professor saying the essay was just dogshit.

        Where can we read the initial paper? Im sure the girl trying to get gold in the victim olympics posted it somewhere to feel justified. Id love to see for myself.

        Edit: Muxika has posted the paper in this thread. Yeah its a dogshit F paper. Its a poorly formatted rant with no synthesis of new ideas, rehashing or contemplation of old ideas and somehow completely ignores history.

              I’ve not seen that specifically linked, but here’s a video by Forest Valkai going over it. Including the the response from the instructor explaining exactly why she got a zero. (this link will start right before that section.)

                I appreciate the video, but does he link the actual assignment or rubric? I know I can get a million opinions on it and I’ve seen the paper, but I want to know what the wording of the actual assignment is.

                  Again: I’ve not seen anywhere where that’s specifically linked.

                  the timestamp I linked the forest video is him reading a screen grab from the instructor’s response as to exactly why they got the grade they got. one reason was not addressing the article in an assignment that was to react to an article. Which- also as Forest had said elsewhere- is a fairly normal type of essay to write up for anything related to science.

                  there’s also a significant corpus of messaging board conversations with other students where the student was very offensive.

            It doesn’t read like a university standard work to me. The writer doesn’t even cite the Bible. I do better in my Lemmy arguments LOL

              Yeah, it’s not terribly surprising that the essay was failed. That’s barely high school level and even there it wouldn’t be a good effort.

        regarding this public free speech row

        It would be a free speech issue if she was, for example, suspended from the university for the opinion. It just seems like it’s a bad piece of work to me. The marker even says it had nothing to do with her opinion

    A person going through the trouble of making a comic really ought to know better than to write “wan’t”.
