Today I had to send this email because the ridiculousness finally broke me. Give an inch, they take a mile. I know they went through a panini, we all do. @AcademicChatter #AcademicTwitter @OpenAcademics @BlkInEngineerng Image
There are several problems with this, it puts an affair imposition on not just me but my TA who is also an undergraduate student and has to keep going back to do more grading. Also, things get lost in email and students complain their late homework grades never got posted.
It also fosters bad habits, delays learning, and hurts them more than it helps them when getting ready for exams, quizzes and the final. I absolutely work with people with extenuating circumstances but this school year I'm dealing with everything from sports to I forgot.
We all do = We all DID
What finally broke me!

Over under on how many late and extension requests I got on this homework assignment this morning. #PurposefulProfessor
👩🏽‍🏫👩🏾‍🎓🤦🏾‍♀️
I am sitting here being prayerful about what I will do about them. I may sit on that for the next 5 weeks. Let’s see how it all shakes out in the end. There is no deadline on me making a decision. The irony right? 😉#PurposefulProfessor 👩🏽‍🏫👩🏾‍🎓🤦🏾‍♀️

Let me just say this I am an engineer. I operate in facts, evidence, analysis, observation, and data. I am not a kook or conspiracy theorist, but when my guts does not feel right, I’m going to trust it
For folks who keep asking and want to know my thoughts. I know it is anecdotal and not enough but this is what lead me here. Believe it or not your choice. Not here to debate. Argue with your mama!

I have never seen so many anti-homework people in my life. I understand there should be some constraints around it and special cases but walking into a college campus with no preparation for how to manage your time, study on your own, organize, reflect,...🧵
is a disaster waiting to happen. Some of these students are the ones I teach and they are so lost that it breaks my heart. They are running underwater while some of their classmates run circles around them. Starting out behind the eight ball. #PurposefulProfessor #NoireSTEMinist
I feel that the main people saying this have never seen the other end and will blame the school and the professor when their "No having homework in high school kid" is failing out after their freshman year. 🧵#PurposefulProfessor
