Teacher gets students to role play as examiners to understand assessment aims by alclin Teachers

[–]corkill 0 points1 point ago

We call it peer grading in the US. It works great and I've used it for the 10 years I've been teaching. It works esp well for preparing students for the essays on the AP exams, which have very specific rubrics.

Suicide blast kills more than 100 Yemeni troops at parade rehearsal - CNN.com by jimmies-sanin worldnews

I made an over-simplified, exaggerated statement to illustrate that the US alliance with Stalin (a VERY bad man) was necessary for the defeat of Hitler. Sorry if it seemed I was being literal. However, had Germany not had to use so many resources against the Soviets, they might have been able to make their plans to invade the US more realistic.

Bear Bryant's letter to a player on summer break in the early 1980s by 1000Stepsin CFB

Got my Master's at UAB and a Birmingham native. Had a friend who was an official football player tutor. I don't know about now, but 10ish years ago, there were plenty of NCAA rules being broken there, esp in regards to athletes' grades. I even had a professor who eventually left for another school due to pressure to pass football players. Get off your high horse.

What does it mean to eat like a king? by noveltieaccountin history

[–]corkill 1 point2 points ago

In ancient Sparta, one of the few privileges that the two kings had were receiving a double portion of food. However, from our descriptions of Spartan food, this wasn't necessarily a "privilege."

Of all of my good friends that are Auburn fans, less than half went to Auburn and the ones that did go are not the crazy, die hard fans of the group.

I'd imagine Peyton Manning or Bret Favre growing up in Wisconsin or Canada would turn out differently.

Yes. They would have been damn good hockey players. ;)
