werdna's essay-writing initiative - TIMETABLE on pg 1

LOL, I think he/she meant it as a joke, as in, because every 'student' must critique and 'mark' work first before submitting their own essay, then if every student has to 'mark' work first, then no one would ever have the chance to hand in an essay?

Oh come on.. it wouldn't take THAT long to critique an essay?

You don't get my point... T_T

Well this is my interpretation, (as a joke), but if everyone MUST mark an essay before submitting essays, then the implication assumed would be that no one would be able to submit an essay

[funkyducky]

It's a paradox

[werdna]

^ I still don't get it ....

Of course you'd be able to submit an essay... just mark someone else's essay and you can submit your own.

YOUR essays will be located in YOUR personal thread... hence, you won't be waiting for someone's essay to be marked before you can post it up. Everyone's essays will NOT be located in the same thread. I've already had this thought out.

If I want to submit my essay, I first have to mark someone else's essay. But the other participants can't post their essays until they mark another person's. Hence, I will never be able to post my essay unless someone breaks this rule and posts their essay without having first marked another person's essay.

NEVERMIND LOL
but yeah it's a paradox
>_>

it was a joke LOL

[lexitu]

LMAO.

As in because the requirement is that you must have marked an essay to be able to post one, no one will be able to meet the requirement hence no essays can be possibly posted for marking so others fulfil that requirement.

[funkyducky]

The first person to post an essay has to break the rule, because there aren't any other essays up for them to critique

Even if i am not a marker or poster of essays, will i still have access to view the essays? I think many posters like myself would be assisted greatly through just reading these essays

Yep, pretty sure you'll be able to. It'd be against the spirit of AN to ban others from viewing them really. Not to mention that it'd be a permissions nightmare for Nina to set it up like that.

Yes, you will have full access to all the essays... I just hope you respect this access and use the essays as a resource only - not a centre from which you can plagiarise.

To Andiio and funkyducky... I'll be the one who breaks the rule first then.. geez.

I'm dobbing on you.

[gossamer]

Given that you guys are marking your own work, why does there need to be a cap? The more people that are involved, the more markers there are. Or is it just because it would be too difficult in terms of administration for you to chase up 50 people? If so that's fair enough.

The latter. Do any of the members want to join me and take care of overdue work and ensuring that members are helping each other out? If this is possible.. then sure, of course we could take up more members!

If no one else volunteers, I don't mind helping out

Ofcourse. It will be a foundation for me and others. I learn the best by reading some of the best
