I need a take-home exam/paper option for my Campaigns & Elections students. I'm having them do a podcast project assignment that I'd be happy to share w anyone, & luckily, it survives to online transition. But I have NEVER assigned a paper/take home test for a very imp reason.
Nowadays students can pay people online just $10 a page to do the work for them & as an expert on human behavior, trust me, that's what many of them are doing. I have no choice now though. The most prone to this type of cheating are the "generic research paper" assignments
so I am seeking some type of writing assignment/take home test assignment that can be adapted into my course topic that would make it hard for students to pay some rando online to do it for them.

Thanks!

Here is how Trump's particular leadership, how his particular control of the federal government instead of someone else, is costing America lives and treasure. 1st, and most imp, he bungled the early response, by refusing the international tests at least in part bc he wanted to
maintain an illusion, in an effect to prevent a politically damaging downturn in the stock market, that the U.S. was going to somehow avoid infection bc of shutting down travel to and from China. But even worse, even after it became clear it was here, Trump, as the sole decider,
refused to take decisive action to ramp up U.S. testing capacity. Even after it became clear that was the ONLY way to prevent massive spread and massive economic disruptions, bc that's what the experts were telling him, but since Trump considers himself an expert on everything,

Def someone childless OR someone with a stay-at-home wife said this!

I can work from home bc I already trained by kid & my dog for it & have a system but I can promise you if they weren't already trained, I wouldn't be able to get anything done bc I am the primary caregiver.
AND, I feel compelled to add this to. The other reason I can work from home REASONABLY productively w a little kid is bc I have the ability to rationalize trade off between work & childcare that other people may not be able to justify. IE: I am heavily reliant on video/computer
games & Youtube & willing to train my children towards independence. Many people approach parenting VERY differently, and frankly, I would assume other parenting models make work from home near impossible.

Yesterday, my Little & I biked around @CNUcaptains campus as we have often done over the past fews years, esp early in the spring, w the flowers in bloom & no heat to make me miserable. It was, at it always has been, beautiful, bc the campus, almost all of it, is younger than me
Not "ghost tree" (which is what my Little calls this tree- my personal fav thing on campus) but most everything else. And though he & I have biked an empty campus many times, through spring breaks, etc, yesterday was diff, bc it was a Tues at the peak of spring semester, & the
absence of the campus community was literally palatable. Of course, I was feeling esp sensitive to it, knowing I'll be departing this summer when for a long time I thought I'd spend a career there. But even beyond that, there was an undeniable sense of loss that was well beyond

THREAD 2: Pivoting in a Pandemic

In this thread I will offer some tips on making this transition. It builds on my general concepts thread, and will be augmented by a third tech and teaching thread Image
If you missed it, here is my first thread

This first thing to remember is that this are truly exceptional circumstances, and we are trying to do in days what normally takes months. With that in mind, I am framing everything in this pivot by reference to this hierarchy: Image

Disney is suspending the Disney College Program, telling students they need to leave by Wednesday (March 18). Many don't have the means to arrange travel and alternate housing so suddenly. Here's some info that might help. A thread:
If you need somewhere to store your stuff, @uhaul is offering college students 30 days of free self-storage: uhaul.com/Articles/About…
If you need a car to get back home, @Enterprise is making it easier for college students to rent a car by reducing the age minimum and waiving young driver rental fees:

☠️ Patriarchy’s Worst Nightmare ☠️
@SciSwany
Final panelist, Andrea Blanch from the Campaign for Trauma-Informed Policy and Practice is talking about the science of trauma- how much does trauma cost society? Putting a dollar sign on it catches eyes.
She wants to focus on talking about structural changes that need to happen rather than putting all the burden on individuals, as western cultures like to do. Also focused on updating info that policy is formed on so we're not creating laws around 50 yr old data.
Her campaign wants people to understand that trauma affects every aspect of life.

& she honors the work of the late Elijiah Cummings in bringing these topics to policy.

hey high schoolers, instead of taking AP classes, take community college classes instead !

they’re:

- free for high schoolers
(pay books only)

- guaranteed college credit
(don’t need to take AP exam for them to count)

- more easily transferred & accepted than AP / IB
- Also, CC classes have a space reserved for HS students (super handy bc it’s hard to get spots in classes :( )

- if you don’t like the teachers or classes at your school, know it’s an option come to these classes instead for the credits needed

(my friend did this w/ Spanish)
HOW TO DO THIS?

1. Go to your local community college’s website

2. Look for the tab with the HS students in the admissions section (sometimes called concurrent enrollment or dual enrollment )

3. Finish all the requirements listed

1/8 My favorite #quote by #JosephStalin, which explains the scientific, #DialecticalMaterialist explanation of true freedom in material reality, not just as an abstract ideal. #StalinIsBack #StalinLives #JVStalin #Stalin #StalinQuote #StalinQuotes #Truth #MELS #MarxismLeninism
2/8 Having an #objective, #rational, #ScientificSocialist, #Dialectical, & #Materialist viewpoint allows us to accurately see & evaluate & analyze #Truth & #Reality as they truly materially exist in this universe.
3/8 An idealistic, dogmatic viewpoint, which capitalists have, however, makes one irrational enough to 'see' freedom where freedom stays trapped on a piece of paper while people are oppressed in their actual lived lives.
