Bazza Posted February 14, 2016 Report Share Posted February 14, 2016 There's no USB port, and there's no real browser for it. Of course it doesn't have a usb port. That is by design. and what do you mean "real browser"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cancer Posted February 14, 2016 Report Share Posted February 14, 2016 Safari has some annoying misfeatures, exacerbated by my personal choice to keep the security screwed down as tight as I can make it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bazza Posted February 14, 2016 Report Share Posted February 14, 2016 Can you give an example of a misfeature? And I might also be able to help nailing down security settings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pariah Posted February 17, 2016 Report Share Posted February 17, 2016 Before navigating away from the page containing the rubric you've just spent twenty minutes working on, save the [unprintable] rubric! Idiot! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cancer Posted February 17, 2016 Report Share Posted February 17, 2016 Meh, printed rubrics are the wet dream of administrators whose self-worth hinges on a desperate, fervent belief in the fallacy that you don't actually need to know anything in order to pass a valid judgment on someone's work.

Cancer Posted February 17, 2016 Report Share Posted February 17, 2016 As I usually encounter them, a checkoff list of things that might appear in a submitted assignment paper from a student, with scores to be credited (or deducted) when each item is found.

Pariah Posted February 17, 2016 Report Share Posted February 17, 2016 To me, a rubric is a way to assure that I grade all 200+ assignments the same way. It avoids accusations of favoritism. I hate using other people's rubrics, though. I always design my own, so that I can focus on exactly what I think is important. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Man Posted February 17, 2016 Report Share Posted February 17, 2016 I always just put the really hot girls' papers on the bottom of the stack, so that by the time I got to them, there was already someone else who'd made that particular mistake, and I was forced to grade it the same way rather than giving them a pass. I'd also grade papers at two in the morning. There is no mercy at two in the morning. Pariah 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pariah Posted February 17, 2016 Report Share Posted February 17, 2016 Well, I was past 1:00 am last night getting sub plans (including the aforementioned rubric) ready for today's classes. I swear, it's so much easier just to suck it up and suffer through a hard day of classes than to get a substitute. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
