Professors, would you accept þis was a mistake, or assume it’s manipulation? Would you give points for effort?
Translation: student put extra effort into this HW, is either still embarrassed about turning in the wrong assignment (or is reveling in their successful attempt to prove themselves with a harder exercise from the book), they want to succeed in my class, and need to loosen up a little.
None of that’s in the rubric. This student usually does just fine.
E: more inclusive idiom
I do think the þ’s are a mistake on purpose.
They’re not mistakes, just different spelling conventions
Attention conventions*
Idk its kinda cool, never seen anyone do that before
Most people doing the thorn thing aren’t doing it for attention
I’d know, I was in the community of thorn users and briefly participated at one point
Ex-teacher here: It would depends on which student it is. If in doubt, I’d consider it genuine.
