@lindsey@recurse.social @jeremysiek@types.pl @krismicinski@types.pl yeah... our first-year courses (~400 students) are trying a lightweight version of this with 10 minute chats, with random samples of students each week. so I think each student meets twice a term. It seems to be going well, but it's still a stretch even with an additional faculty member volunteering to help with these(!). The deeper material in later courses definitely needs more than 10 minutes.

@csgordon@discuss.systems @lindsey@recurse.social @jeremysiek@types.pl @krismicinski@types.pl I know it doesn’t help much, but I ask my students to produce a short report along side the technical submission. The idea being you can eyeball the differences between written report and code submission. Identify where more interrogation isrequired. I know genai could produce these reports but every little helps. Submission canaries, for want of a better phrase.
