Die New York Times beschäftigt sich in einem ausführlichen Bericht mit US-amerikanischen Bitcoin Minen. Die 34 Betriebe brauchen jeder mehr Strom als 40.000 durchschnittliche Haushalte. Dabei werden so viel Treibhausgase erzeugt wir von ungefähr 3,5 Millionen Fahrzeugen mit Verbrennermitor. Die Bitcoin-Minen entwickeln neue Geschäftsmodelle, die davon ausgehen, dass sie ihren Strombedarf wesentlich flexibler dosieren können als andere Unternehmen. Die öffentliche Hand muss zum Teil sogar Gewinnausfälle durch Stromabschaltungen finanzieren.

Some related ideas that are suggesting some sort of thesis for improving the idea of ungrading: - We measure the things we care about. - In Education, we care about learning and understanding, but measuring these outside of testing and evaluation is difficult at best (therefor ungrading). - No one cares about your GPA six months after you graduate. - Somehow we've tied up evaluations and grades into the toxic capitalism and competition within US culture. Some of this is tied into educational movements related to Frederick Winslow Taylor and Harvards Eliot. - Hierarchies instituted by the Great Chain of Being have confounded our educational process.

Open Pedagogy

This is a little hard to follow. Try to unpack and elaborate such complex relationships.

Interesting, but I suggest you outline Roberts-Miller's main claims and some key concepts before getting too far into discussion.

OK, but RM says that emotion isn't necessarily demagogic.

Good - but give RM's definition of scapegoating, then present evidence showing how it works in the target text.

Not sure this captures RM's claim. You could do more to explain her notion of a culture of demagoguery.

Yes, we seem to live in an age in which demagoguery is highly visible.

This establishes you understand the "gist" of both authors. But the response is very general, and does not delve deeply into either text. Try to quote the texts, use textual evidence to substantiate your analysis, and construct a more robust response.

This chapter suggests two ways to make the grading of writing easier,fairer, and more helpful for students: using minimal grades or fewerlevels of quality, and using criteria that spell out the features of goodwriting that we are looking for in the assignment.Grading Student Writing: MakingIt Simpler, Fairer, Clearer
