Just a quick thing. When you give feedback, make sure you actually say the person's name up top. Like "Hey Sarah…" or "For David…". It makes it feel less like a form letter and more like you're actually talking to them.
I just received this email. Honestly not sure what to make of it.
I'm hooked on Katie Price at the moment. One minute 'my Lee is missing' then 'why not buy a £10 lucky bag and maybe get this gorgeous jumpsuit' followed by
'Lee has been kidnapped and bundled into a van' finished with 'my anxiety is through the roof this week, but with the cobs oil I'm managing to relax!' Great time for a bit of marketing
Whilst enrolling for classes last week, I found myself rather bemused. As a Business undergraduate, I was presented with options ranging from Computer Science programming to Biology under the Health Science umbrella. These are not required for my degree, nor do they appear on my course map. One can't help but wonder what logic the registry is operating on by including them in the selection pool.
Why were unrelated Computer Science and Biology electives listed for a Business major during course registration?
Getting used to all these new changes has really shown me how flexible we humans need to be. I try to focus on the positives and make the best of things. With Rosalyn AI taking off, everyone has been sharing their concerns and so on. But one thing I want to add is that I really hope they create an online proctoring solution for students using Chromebooks. After all, most students rely on them for their studies.
I’m so glad peer grading is almost over. And huge thanks to our instructors for actually grading every single assignment, no matter what some students turned in. Don’t even get me started. Most people still don’t know basic things like adding a separate title page or putting references on their own page in APA format. And where are the URLs? Honestly!
Had a quick browse of Rosalyn AI proctoring and saw there are various pricing plans. Just wondering, will the one we’re planning to use be free? I’ve emailed my advisor and also spoken to Michelle, the chatbot, but neither was able to confirm or deny anything.
This update makes little sense to me. Apparently there are proctoring conflicts. So the university simply drops the required number of courses. But here is the kicker. We still have to sit the exams. We still have to be supervised. We just get a “non-proctored” description in our DAR. It feels like extra stress with no real benefit. Also, HIST 1421 is proctored, yet the system claims it is not. Another admin error that they try to justify. I appreciate clear communication. I do not appreciate added hassle.
Has anyone else had similar issues?
Typing the name “Rosalyn AI” into Reddit leads down a rather disappointing and alarming path. One post bluntly asked the question... What happened to upholding academic integrity and honesty??????
There's been a fair bit of noise about a petition against the Rosalyn Ai proctor. Someone noticed that, elsewhere on Reddit, a person allegedly connected to that petition had been asking for advice on how to bypass the system. Make of that what you will. Now a lot of people are crying foul over a data breach. But in my view, some are using that as an excuse. What they really don't want is for “you know what” to become harder. Passing a proctored exam honestly isn't all that difficult. The trouble is, some folks just don't seem willing to put the study time in. It's disappointing to see.
That said, this change will genuinely hurt students who are limited by poor technology, unreliable WiFi, or lack of social access. Those students work hard and play by the rules. They're now being forced into a new system that might actually stop them from continuing their studies altogether. As a relatively privileged student myself, that part genuinely saddens me.
Alright, I’m done being subtle. From here on out, every single paragraph is getting a subheading. It’s not because I suddenly love formatting; it’s because I clearly can’t trust some of these instructors to actually read what they’re grading. If they’re just gonna skim, I might as well make it impossible for them to miss the point.
I’ve been doing water culture for the past two years and I’m extremely excited!
So get this. Greek and Roman Civilization (HIST 1421), College Algebra (MATH 1201), and Statistics (MATH 1280) are supposed to be PROCTORED courses. But then UoPeople turns around and lists them as NON-PROCTORED on our DAR. That is just ridiculous and completely unacceptable!
A few courses I took that were proctored are now showing up as non-proctored on my degree audit report. That's crazy. At first I thought I was hallucinating or something, coz I couldn’t understand why I keep lacking fulfillment. Has anyone else run into something like this before? PLEASE CHECK YOUR DEGREE AUDIT REPORT!
