      1. I tire of this take. When I worked in academia I saw that students show up to good classes, if they don't it's usually due to serious reasons that they, as adults, should be given leeway to handle. The other reason students don't show up is because the class is badly taught. jhrubin/1210191840978329600

      It's not a coincidence that the courses most interested in... 'creative attendance taking' are enormous lecture hall courses that, by necessity of their >100 size, are boring, badly constructed, classes that teach from existing materials.

    You want to lower the drop out rate, use that money to hire more teachers who are better at their jobs & shrink the size of classes. It's fked up students are forced to pay hundreds of thousands of dollars for a less personalized and less attentive experience than grade school.

      Also, relieve the debt burden that stresses students out and requires more of them to work multiple jobs and, in some cases, starve on campus. washingtonpost.com/news/wonk/wp/2018/04/03/the-hidden-crisis-on-college-campuses-36-percent-of-students-dont-have-enough-to-eat/?outputType=amp

        The problem with this type of a/b testing with analytics is it doesn't account for c. Chronotope/1210573962771599366?s=19

            It's not difficult to look at this sort of technologic approach and see it connecting up to the same style of kleptocracy that impacts the rest of our society, a way to use technology to extract more wealth to fewer people, who sit at the top using remote control.

                Also: any argument for a tracking program justified with 'well we have nothing to hide' will always end up being inherently discriminatory because systems that work on the basis of assuming that people have something to hide will end up broken on the bias of their creators.

                  Anyway, in one of my classes I enjoyed attending in college we learned that you can jam Bluetooth by binding a bunch of 2.4 GHz cordless house phones together and taping down their on buttons, or even better, channel change buttons. Wonder what that would do for Bluetooth beacons
