Unfortunately my senior colleagues are arrogant, lazy and stupid. Rather than beta testing and finding solutions (like the one you suggest) they just sign things off. When I teach I use words and pictures. Some of the pictures can easily be recapitulated in an exam and used to save time...

As academic sub-board chair, I have to deal with two cases of exam cheating next week. In one, a student has sat an in-person exam and created a whole page of verbatim text from an online source. They claim to have a good memory. I am going to ask them to recreate the answer again for me, on...

Did you have anyone in mind? There are already some massive dicks on NSC, and it is reassuring that AI thinks they can't be enlarged.

??? :wink:

Let me know how it goes. I had an essay recently that was in English, but was quire extraordinary bollocks. I gave it a generous 15%. If that was the product of cash for AI.....then....crumbs!

Is that gluten free? If not, I may have to report you for breaching my dietary requirements. You varmint. ???

I'm toying with going. It will take only a few more shoves of stupidity from my more gormless colleagues. The latest wheeze (this is in the interests of 'fairness', of course) is when you have a student doing a research project, neither the first nor second marker are allowed to be the...

We have 'turnitin' which checks global data bases and published literature for 'cut and paste'. It will be interesting to see if it can bot spot. Our Chinese national students are always getting done because they prep essays by cut and paste and edit, and often forget to do the latter bit...

I will log on and try to get it to write a couple of essays - one of the sort I set and one of the sort my lazier colleages set ('write an essay on' type of shit). Site is down now but I have triggered an alert.

Bing, you say? I only ever used it twice. The second time was to search for google (now in my toolbar)
