50% of the errors I've had students complain about have been issues with rendering the math markup, at which point "disable any script blockers" fixes at least 80% of those student issues. The OP included both looking at additional websites and error messages, so it seems on topic.Īlso, you'd be amazed at how much you can debug from just having a screenshot of the page and a good idea of how the content is being served up. Sometimes it's transparent that they're just trying to get a do-over now that they've seen the answers other times it's obvious that there really was an issue. Thus far, I've only had people whining and asking for do-overs because of technical issues like this. As this is a discussion forum, authors should provide some starting discussion on the article in question that introduces the article and establishes context and relevance for the readers of the sub.

We will try not to penalize politically challenging speech (we mods are only human, after all), but it is essential that it be delivered thoughtfully and with circumspection. For IRB approved surveys, you can message the Mods with a pitch and we will consider allowing it.Ħ No Bigotry: Racism, bigotry, sexism, or homophobia, or any other similar despicable type behavior will get your comment(s)/post(s) removed and you muted or banned.

Disagree, challenge, vent, express frustration, but don’t cross that line. For that matter, attacks IN GENERAL are not tolerated. Any posts of this type will most likely to be removed without question, explanation, or hesitation.ģ No Incivility: No personal attacks, racism, or any other diatribes against students, or each other, that cross the line of civility.

This community is a place for professors to BS with each other, share professional concerns, get advice and encouragement, vent (oh yes, especially that), and share memes. While students may lurk and occasionally comment, they should identify themselves as students, and comments are subject to removal at mods’ discretion. Whether you are tenured, tenure-stream, a lecturer, adjunct faculty, or grad TA, if you are instructional faculty or work with college students in a similar capacity, this forum is for you to talk with colleagues. This sub is BY professors FOR professors.
