So I'm grading the last assignment of the term and still flagging kids for cheating.

Sigh.

I so do not have time for this.

Salvador Deli's Last Supper is definitely a great typo I need for a chuckle right now. #amgrading

I have put in all the grades!

*stares blearily into the rain*

*stares blearily at the to-do list*

Yay?

Turnitin is useless. I don't know why I bother. "Do you see these quotes from Paradise Lost? All plagiarism, I tell you!" #AcademicSky #AmGrading

#amGrading, very important step: replace initial reactions (“blah blah blah!”) with professional wording (“vague”) #academicChatter

Train to work was delayed. Meh.

Could finish grading one exam question because of the extra time. Yay.

Meeting was canceled. Meh.

More time for grading. Yay?

There's a really common mistake in this exam that I didn't anticipate. It's "integration by parts of wishful thinking":

The students integrate by parts, then "solve" the second integral (which can, in fact, be done by a second integration by parts) by wishful thinking.

TBF, I feel like this is the most authentic assignment I've received from a student in a while. Full credit. #AmGrading #AmTeaching

Best part of teaching a class on #emojis: Reading student term papers about emojis! 🤩 #linguistics #amGrading #academicChatter
