My biggest academic secret is that whenever I work on a bibliography, I have to sing the alphabet song to figure out where my references go.

Academic Integrity Panel-Speech pathology grad school
This situation isn't my own but a friend brought it to my attention (names changed for confidentiality) So my friend Brynn was friends with a girl named Kelly. So Kelly isn't the best student, received two write ups for professionalism, and overall doesn't care about the program or being an SLP. She believes with her experience as a substitute teacher she should be the one teaching the class. Anyways Kelly contacted Brynn asking to reference her assignment since Kelly claimed to be undergoing a lot of stress. Brynn kindly sent her assignment to Kelly and Kelly ended up turning in Brynn's work as her own. The professor who is also the program director gave them both 0s on the assignment and Kelly is scheduled to meet with the academic integrity panel since the professor is worried she is faking competencies. What is likely to happen to Kelly? She hasn't been caught plagiarizing before but she's had disciplinary write ups in the past. Will she be removed from the program or just fail the assignment or course? Submitted October 01, 2021 at 05:00AM by teenagedirtbag109 via reddit https://ift.tt/39SmGwv
How to pick a journal
I am in high school right now, and I have seen other high school studnets publish in the following journals. 1) International Journal of Scientific Engineering and Research (IJSER) ( https://www.ijser.in ) 2) International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology ( https://www.ijraset.com) I want to attempt to submit mine to one of these- how do I choose?

I will be behind my cohort by a semester should I be worried?
Im a first-year MA student on an assistantship. I decided that I needed to take a step back to focus on my mental health. This resulted in me dropping most of my courses except for a direct study under my advisor. This was really a hard decision for me to make. I will still have my assistantship (TA- grader) next spring but I feel that my peers will know more since they had a full load in their first semester. Will I be ok later? I feel like I will be incompetent when it comes to class discussions, etc Submitted October 01, 2021 at 03:12AM by haloflower157 via reddit https://ift.tt/3mhBtqg My post-coursework portion of my doctorate has left me completely disinterested in higher education9/30/2021
My post-coursework portion of my doctorate has left me completely disinterested in higher education
I'm currently ABD in a music degree. I did three years of coursework and assistantship, followed by four written comprehensive exams, an oral exam, and the dissertation. This latter half will end up (if I'm lucky) taking as long as the coursework did. I absolutely loved my first three years. It was the most educational, fulfilling, supportive, inspiring, and meaningful part of my life in music. I loved my assistantship work very much. It was incredibly intensive and time consuming, as I'm sure some of you can imagine, and while I wouldn't trade it for anything it did prevent me from looking forward towards the other requirements I would need to complete. This doesn't bother me so much though because of how beneficial and fulfilling it was. The problem I ran into is that it seems like no one in the faculty or administration understood how the rest of the degree was supposed to work, and it seemed like no one including my primary advisor had any particular interest in me (or any doctoral student) graduating. I did my first written exam, and didn't hear back from the professor for months. The exam instructions were broad and vague and I realized after the first one that they were made out to be far more difficult than they actually were. I was also confused because my exams had little or nothing to do with my degree focus or the work I did in my coursework - no relationship to the classes I took, etc. It almost felt like I was being scared into over-preparing and then given an easy pass. One of the four exams I felt I truly didn't deserve to pass, but nonetheless I wasn't even given a stipulation. A lot of heartache over nothing. Music performance isn't a hard research degree, and I did no significant research of any kind during my time as a student. I'm not a bad writer or researcher (relatively), and have no problem putting in the time, but it seems like every time I bring something to my committee some previously unmentioned and not insignificant aspect or focus comes up that I need to work into the document. It almost feels like whatever passing thought they have in our meetings suddenly becomes a major concern. I have total respect for everyone on my committee but the manner and suddenness with which concerns are expressed doesn't seem constructive to me, and sometimes feels like hardship is being added for its own sake. And then things that result from mixed messages and miscommunications. One advisor has mentioned this extra written exam that I need to do, but not all advisors in the school of music adhere to it and the graduate office nor my course catalog has any indication of it. One tells me I need to be enrolled for this credit this semester, another says I don't need it. It seems like the requirements have more to do with who I'm talking to than some clear set of completion guidelines. This has killed my interest in college teaching. The backfighting, lack of clarity, and perceived lack of educational purpose has left me so confused and with a distaste for academia. Much of this process has seemed like some have decided it should be hard, and the difficulty is imposed whether necessary or not in a given task. I have every reason to believe I was a good student and graduate assistant for those first few years, and that now the educational purpose is to undergo a certain amount of suffering and a delay of moving on with life. I could never in good conscience teach a student to become a better musician and colleague and pretend that all these post-coursework requirements have anything to do with that. If I had better understood what I was going to have to do, I think I could have completed the degree less a year's time. I'm sure this isn't a unique experience, but I'm failing to understand the purpose of all this. I apologize for the long post and the ranty tone. Is/was anyone else's doctoral experience similar?

Are Verbal Commitments Meaningless from my Employer?
I recently moved across country for a non-tenured track position. I was told the position would last 3 years and then evolve into a tenure track search after Year 2.. After a month on the job, I found out the tenure track search is beginning NOW. Does the verbal assurance from my employer that the TT search would happen later mean nothing? I wouldn't have moved here for a 9 month job. I was told it would be 3 years and then the TT search would happen. Of course, I am going to apply for the TT job, but it is so incredibly stressful wondering if I moved here for a few months instead of a few years. I haven't even finished paying off the moving debt. They had to of known that it was possible the TT search would be approved this year. Submitted September 30, 2021 at 01:19AM by Away-Bend856 via reddit https://ift.tt/3AVn1uk
Has anyone run a longitudinal study over MTurk or Cloud Research?
Cloud Research has a guide for setting up a longitudinal study and I'm curious whether anyone has used the feature, or conducted any kind of longitudinal study over MTurk? Submitted September 30, 2021 at 12:04AM by theBatThumb via reddit https://ift.tt/3zTvYCY
emojis for emphasis in scientific literature?
Stumbled across this yesterday (link: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41377-021-00628-0/figures/1). This isn't some nonsense journal either (LSA, IF ~ 17), nor is it a review article. In my humble opinion, this is tastefully done. Though, I recognize that I may be biased - especially since I am a big fan of the work presented by the authors. I also understand this opens doors that might be best left closed for academia's sake. What do you guys think? Submitted September 30, 2021 at 12:13AM by quohr via reddit https://ift.tt/3uqUdri |
