Today the vast majority of one of my classes let me know, in no uncertain terms, that they do not want to read their homework on a screen. They do not like reading on screens. They want print. They have a whole litany of good reasons. It was amazing. #amteaching

Telling a student that they’re a contrarian and them looking it up, eye bulging when they realize they fit the definition, really made my Friday.

Ah yes, logistic regression is another thing where all the examples seem to assume that gender is a binary variable 🙄🙄🙄

I'm officially on vacation, but it's so hot on the Croatian coast that you're stuck inside anyway for half a day so I am grading MA theses which I supervised this past year, in order to fill my days and make it easier for myself in late August. I am so proud of my students. #HigherEd #AmTeaching

Nice non-AI picture I made for my Dutch students.
They are all words that are easy to guess:
appels, pennen, bananen, auto's, brownies, katten, t-shirts, laptops, golfballen, aubergines, marshmallows.

Last Q & A session before exams.
This student, who has failed the last time they took this exam, might now have understood the chain rule. Too bad they'll have to do things like solve differential equations in the exam.
