I did a thing this term where I told my students they were allowed to use ChatGPT. The catch was, they had to tell me about it in a reflection when they handed in their paper. This is a thread about how it all went.

Currently looking for an External Examiner for a student of ours who looked at Mindfulness and Post-traumatic growth during COVID for her Prof doc thesis in Counselling Psychology. Anyone got any recommendations?
The infuriating thing about language is that if you describe this as a "fun little red rubber ball" you're fine but if you call it a "rubber fun red little ball" you sound like you had a stroke, even though there is no official rule about order of adjectives.
If you're serious about grading reform & seek an in-depth understanding of the topic, you need to read (or reread) this lit review.
It is the most comprehensive review of grading lit ever conducted by a dream team of grading researchers.

I'm not sure about this. "Grade grubbing" is a systems problem and something faculty teach students to do (because they learn from doing it once that it works). Second, grading is subjective and students have the right to say, "you missed the boat here" and this is why. 1/x
I think it is fine to tell students that they don't get extra credit options. It's also fine to have a policy of not reviewing student work again just because the student asks. 2/x
The student has to put in legwork to get their papers re-reviewed, by providing detailed explainations of why their grade should be higher. The entitled ones that just expect their grade to be raised, can't do this. 3/3
I now have 4 papers sitting at journals in various stages of publication. Even I don't know how I did it. The first was submitted in July and the last just yesterday.
