@dansup @pfefferle I’m pretty sure that’s how my partner primarily uses instagram. It’s carousels of headlines and infographics with a long-ish discussion in the description. That’s medicine instagram though, not sure how much that applies to other bubbles

@futurebird there are two reasonable applications I’ve seen:

1) Automarking of qualitative assignments to save teachers some time, but obviously at the risk that they won’t double check the marking

2) “homework assistance” for students to ask about an assignment without getting an answer to the task but rather some Socratic method type questions

Neither of them are foolproof but they seem to get largely positive feedback

@futurebird increasing students per teacher based off either of these is full on insane though. Education has a quality problem because of low teacher numbers to begin with 🙈

@Infoseepage @GossiTheDog yeah just buy a new car, anyone can do that, right? And let's just send all Teslas to the landfill why don't we. Most responsible behaviour 😂

@dansup what's this? A sensible take on a social medium? I'll buy a lottery ticket today

@masek the German government just stated there would be "consequences", which is German government speak for "we might replace the reception computer in the Bundestag within the next 10 years and call it digitalisation"
