#STEM coursework

[thats-cantorintuitive]

i'm thinking of starting a productivity challenge, to hold myself accountable in a way. but it would be a small one, as in like a 10/15 day thing - more like a personal deadline for a to-do list

also! i love abbot and spivak.

does anyone want to inject knowledge about the february revolution into my bloodstream

Any time I see someone defending GenAI in academics I'm reminded of a video Oz Media made a bit ago about a guy studying to be a nutritionist who realized they fucked up once he got to having to do labs. The TL;DR of it is the person used ChatGPT to cruise through foundation courses and through nutrition coursework, but realized as labs were looming they didn't actually *know* jack-shit. Direct Quote from their post: "LABS START NEXT MONTH. AI CANT PIPETTE LIQUIDS. i have to measure nutrient densities IN PERSON. what happens when i blank out and cant explain the krebs cycle to my professor's face???" Even the basics made no sense to them; tried to brush up on chemistry but couldn't understand page 1. And it was a couple of years worth of STEM they needed to learn.

And the whole time I laughed at their suffering because they put themselves in this boat. They didn't study, they didn't learn, and now they have to deal with the consequences.

That's the fundamental problem with cheating on your courses as a whole. Eventually you will have to actually do stuff and you're either going to be prepared for that or you aren't.

[mangionebabymama]

being the girl who signed up for a computer science class at upenn….you’re the only girl in the class, which you hate and makes you want to drop the course because, men, but your classmate college lu never makes you feel uncomfortable or less than :(((((

🥺

When you’d be ultimately looking forward to that one class, since it would be the only non-general education course on your schedule that you’d have to take for graduation requirements, and if you’d have any prerequisites to take before moving on to your actual coursework. That first day of class, though, would change everything.

You’d start to second-guess yourself, wondering if you should drop the class and save your tuition, no less, save your time and self-worth. You’d wonder if you should even give yourself the thought of ever diving into the study of computer science, and protect yourself from the long traumatic history of facing double standards within gender and/or racial/ethnicity representation of STEM-related fields that is awaiting you.

It’s not until one class, the same day where it’s the last day of the deadline to drop a class and get your full refund. Before class, you find yourself talking to this Luigi, this one guy, out of the many, who doesn’t make you hate the class and remember that you’re going to drop it, because of how personable, sweet, and just humanely genuine he is as a person.

After class ends, you two carry on with your conservation from where it left off. Just because, he would ask what your plans for the rest of day consist of, and for some reason, you’d confide in him about your present feelings about the class as a whole and how, altogether, you feel like an imposter, a fraud.

There, he’d tell you to not drop the class, because you want to be there, and that you shouldn’t let nothing—no one—tell you differently. He’d encourage to stay in the class, and that he believes in you, if no one hadn’t told you that yet.

Mate mate, it’s fine. Trust me this is a lot more fun than revision.

ANGOSTURA (TEASER) | PJS

PAIRING. Park Jongseong x female reader. GENRE. contemporary romance, drama and angst, University romance WORD COUNT. pendingg WARNINGS. brief mentions of overdose and heavy substance abuse, it's not graphic, I just thought I would mention it. cursing, and alcohol consumption. DISCLAIMER. This was inspired by keshi's song Angostura. I take credit for this story because it I wrote it with my imagination. characters used are just for the story and may not be how they are in irl. SUMMARY. Y/N never expected her junior year of college to be anything but routine—long nights in the research lab, endless pre-med coursework, and keeping her social circle small. But after an unplanned encounter with Jay, a reserved yet enigmatic student stuck in General Chemistry to fulfill a lab requirement, her carefully structured world starts to shift.

DATE RELEASED. ...PENDING...

The late afternoon sun cast long shadows across the campus courtyard, where different student organizations had set up their fundraising tables, calling out to passing students in an attempt to secure donations.

Faaiya adjusted the sign at her table for what felt like the hundredth time.

“Build-A-Bouquet – $8”

Underneath, in smaller text: All proceeds go toward funding STEM outreach programs for local elementary schools.

She exhaled, rubbing her hands together to warm them. It had been a long day, and she barely had the energy to keep up her usual fundraising pitch.

Still, she forced a polite smile as a pair of students approached, quickly helping them pick out a bouquet of white daisies and sunflowers.

Then she heard them.

A familiar trio.

“Why are flowers so expensive?”

Jake’s voice—loud, confused, and clearly not meant for discretion.

Faaiya closed her eyes briefly before forcing herself to look up.

Jake, Sunghoon, and Jay stood a few feet away, unmistakable in their presence. They weren’t the type to blend into a crowd, whether they wanted to or not. Dressed in varying degrees of casual disarray—Jake in a hoodie and joggers, Sunghoon looking effortlessly put together despite wearing the same black jacket he always did, and Jay, hands in his pockets, posture loose but observant.

Faaiya sighed. “Are you actually here to buy something, or are you just here to stand around and question the economy?”

Sunghoon smirked. “Little bit of both.”

Jake, ever the instigator, grinned. “We were just walking by, and Jay was so interested in your fundraiser that we had to stop.”

Jay didn’t react to the comment, but his gaze flickered briefly to Faaiya, as she crossed her arms. “Uh-huh. Sure.”

Jake drummed his fingers against the table. “So, how does this work? We pick, or do you?”

“You pick,” Faaiya said flatly.

Jake immediately turned to Sunghoon. “Dude, we should build one for you.”

Sunghoon scoffed, stepping back. “Absolutely not.”

Faaiya exhaled. “It’s for charity, not matchmaking.”

“Charity?” Sunghoon repeated, raising a brow. “Sure.”

Jake ignored him, turning back to the table with exaggerated interest. “So, what flowers would Sunghoon like?”

Sunghoon sighed. “I don’t want flowers.”

Jake grinned. “Yeah, yeah. That’s what they all say until they receive some, and suddenly, they have feelings.”

Faaiya rolled her eyes and turned her attention to Jay, who had yet to say anything.

“Are you just here for the show?” she asked.

Jay’s lips quirked slightly. “Maybe.”

Jake finally made his selection—a chaotic mix of marigolds, baby’s breath, and a single red rose. Sunghoon looked like he was physically restraining himself from making a comment.

Jay, meanwhile, reached into his pocket and pulled out a bill. He placed it on the table without hesitation.

A twenty.

Faaiya frowned. “I don’t have change.”

Jay tilted his head slightly, like he was amused by her response. “That’s fine.”

Jake let out a dramatic gasp, clutching his chest. “He’s donating?” Sunghoon shook his head in mock disbelief. “Didn’t think I’d see the day.”

Jay ignored them, instead gesturing lazily toward the flowers. “Pick for me.”

“Okay, demanding,” Faaiya mumbled. She hesitated before pulling together a bouquet—deep orange chrysanthemums, sprigs of rosemary, and white carnations. She wrapped them quickly, tying them off with a thin ribbon.

Jay accepted it without question, turning it over in his hands. Sunghoon eyed the arrangement. “You pick those on purpose?”

Faaiya shrugged. “It’s fall. Seemed fitting.”

Jake leaned in, still grinning. “And what do they mean?”

Faaiya adjusted the remaining flowers in her bin. “This is a fundraiser, Jake. not a show and tell of the meaning of flowers–.”

Jake groaned, cutting her off. “C’mon, Yunjin talks all the time about you geeking out on flower meanings so—”

Jay interrupted. “Chrysanthemums for resilience, rosemary for remembrance, and carnations…” He glanced at Faaiya, as if waiting for her to fill in the rest.

She crossed her arms looking away. “Purity.”

Sunghoon let out a low whistle. “Damn. Thought you weren’t thinking too hard about it?”

“I wasn’t,” Faaiya said evenly. “It just makes sense.”

Jay hummed, still turning the bouquet between his fingers, his expression unreadable, then tucked the bouquet under his arm, stepping back.

Jake pouted. “That’s it? No sentimental speech? No grand gesture?”

Jay ignored him. “You done?”

Sunghoon sighed, already walking away. “Yes. Please.”

Jake huffed but followed, tossing Faaiya a quick wink as he did. “See you around, flower girl.”

Faaiya rolled her eyes, watching as they disappeared into the crowd.

hello! i remembered you took a course in library sciences if i recall correctly, and i've always loved reading your essays. i was wondering who to ask for tips on academic research and i felt you were the perfect person to ask!

strangely my instructor is encouraging us to use scholar GPT, saying that if we didn't use AI for searching for literature, writing, etc then we would fall behind. let me just say, i did, convincing myself i'd only use it that one time on a time crunch. i then got lazy, and i felt extremely unproductive.

i would love any advice or anything really that you could give! i'm in STEM, i don't think that is particularly relevant but just in case it is. although it doesn't have to be exclusive to that, only supplementary. thank you

Warning! Long entry alert!

Thank you for the ask! You remember correctly, I studied library sciences, which included some research training. I'm also in the early part of degree #2 (IT with - long story - a history component).

Firstly, I should ask: is this for searching for literature, or a literature search? To a non-student, those will sound identical. However, there's a big difference at university/college level. Searching for literature is simply getting sources to understand a topic. Most university/college coursework requires this to some extent. A literature search seeks to obtain every significiant item of knowledge about a very narrow question. It is typically not needed until the third year of undergraduate level.

Most of my advice is focused on the first question. However,

Some of the departments have given different ideas for how to research (which makes sense - library science is a social science, IT is a pure science and history is an art). However, most of it is applicable across disciplines.

AI is not ready to do literature searching of either type. It has too many hallucinations and mistakes to be useful. However, I can see why an instructor might ask people to use it anyway:

Part 1 – Providing Alternative Viewpoints

University and college are partly there to provide contrary opinions and challenge received wisdom. Academia in general is aware that AI is a hot topic and most universities and colleges have strong anti-AI-in-academia opinions. Thus, any of several pro-AI positions might be posited by other academics to ensure that students think about their use of AI instead of reflexively taking a position and never reconsidering it.

You may be being asked to consider multiple takes on the subject, as this is good training for the official course material in upper levels of degree courses. If you have no insight into your instructor's motives, this is the safest reason to assume, because it doesn't assume anything about their actual opinion (for example, it's possible to be anti-AI, still advocate thinking about AI through multiple lenses and thus be willing to take an opinion one does not actually believe for the benefit of students' developing a thoughtful approach to AI).

The proper answer to this is to make a sensible decision about AI and be prepared to revise it. You've used the tools currently on offer and found them inadequate, so different techniques are appropriate. You have, therefore, done your honest best as a student to thoughtfully consider the matter.

The sensible move in 2025 is to avoid using AI for literature search. However, colleges and universities want students to think about this and not simply assume the position they had entering university is or will continue to be the case. That applies to AI and almost every other topic the university/college teaches.

reading abt stem majors’ coursework is always so funny like they deal with lasers and shit meanwhile i almost wrote a paper called “gay catholicism and its impact on poulenc’s a cappella sacred motets”

Someone mentioned about Akai Shuichi being a TA/ Akai being someone from engineering degree.

Yes. 100% Akai must've been from the STEM degree but he does not have to be in the engineering degree to pursue a doctoral degree in Japan. You just have to have a relevant master's degree for doctoral degree. (I am sure by orders of magnitude) because in Japan for you to get into doctoral/ masters studies you have to pass the entrance exam. Yes, they make you sit on an exam that is notoriously harder than PhD qualifying exam (an exam grad students need to pass before them becoming officially a PhD candidate) and then decide if you are worthy for their program or not. So he doesn't really have to come from engineering background. I have a friend who got admitted to Earth Science for their graduate school despite doing Physics for their undergrad and only took one or two geology classes. I know someone from a top Japan univ who had an engineering background and did masters in Physics -- that pure physics.

What you need to apply for doctoral program in Japan is a master degree mostly. That's because doctoral students are expected to do research therefore they are not covering courseworks anymore. Unlike US PhD program where you spend initial 1-2 year to complete courseworks needed for qualification exams and then continue the next 3-5 years researching, Japanese program makes you take that master courses, do 1 year master research, defend your thesis then you can apply for a PhD program.

Also for TA job it is not really a requirement since Japanese students pay for their tuition (except some universities -- but most universities require you to pay for that). Fundings can come from your Principal Investigator (PI) aka the faculty member that you are working for who is willing to make sure that you don't fork your own money to pay for your education or university offering a TAship but it is really optional (in my uni I only know one or two doctorate students who choose this TAship and they still have to pay for tuition).

That's why Gosho can easily make him to be a doctorate student. Afaik (again this depends on universities) doctorate students do not really attend taught classes in Japan. He can easily skip those classes.

I had signed up for a local CAD program thru our rez college. this is the first STEM program they've ever had so ppl have been nervous about getting into it; everyone they've interviewed for have wanted x2 what they're able to offer for salary. They've finally gotten an instructor (yay!) but they had to push the program back from July until (maybe??) this month - or December (idek). I got an email that the instructor is working on the coursework finally 🫠

big props to them for pursuing this! I'm just frustrated bc IDK how it being pushed back is gonna affect my financial aide; I signed up for two more classes bc I wanted to be able to get Pell grant monies like I'm able to while doing school

hhhh I need to go into the school tomorrow to ask but I hate to put stuff off more 🫠🫠🫠 or maybe I'll have to take another class then take the CAD one while doing the others ?

tldr - I'm feeling like this image rn

[transmutationisms]

hi! i was just wondering if you had any tips on how to like survive university ;-; i already have stimulants and they help most of the time, with the boring bits. but yeah, it's been pretty tough and overwhelming. im a stem major if that helps. as always, thank you for answering all of my questions~

btw, your cat is so, so adorable! love how she just fits into the box sfdhsjkaadgha

she's actually my boyfriend's and she is so gorgeous and also such a menace.... anyway i don't know how helpful i can be here; i actually went to an undergrad that specifically did not teach by lectures because i find them so intolerable and unhelpful lol, and also i had several active chemical addictions and grad school is kind of its own can of worms. i tend to do best when i can go away and read / write about something on my own time, with an instructor and classmates as kind of consultants or people to bounce ideas off of. i don't think it's unusual at all to struggle with the way that most universities structure their coursework; it's not friendly or navigable for most people, and there are also really high barriers to getting any sort of accomodation. i guess my best general advice here would be to just do as much as you need to do to get the degree you need, and any additional work is basically only valuable to the extent that you're deriving some kind of intrinsic reward from it. like, if you want to apply to grad school then your grades matter, but besides that, basically nobody will ever know or care. you don't get an asterisk beside your name for the rest of your life that says how hard you worked in university, yknow? just do what you gotta do, let yourself off the hook for the rest, and remember the institution is not your friend and you don't owe it shit

[historical-fashion-polls]

As someone who's starting their final year of their PhD (in stem though), let me say you can do it! I'm so excited for you to be on this journey and one day I think you'll make a great professor (take some TA opportunities to help you figure out how you'll want to teach)

hi dear anon! 💕

omg huge congrats on being in the final year of your phd!! 🥳🥳 and in stem no less!! that's so impressive and cool!! ☺️☺️

and thank you so much for your super sweet words!! 🥰🥰 luckily I was able to have the fantastic opportunity to teach during my MA which only cemented my desire to teach, since I absolutely loved it! I'm also lucky enough to be on a fellowship my first year (so I don't need to hold another position and can work on getting some of my coursework requirements done), but I'm hoping I'll be able to teach starting in my second year! ☺️💕

thank you so much again for your incredibly kind message, and best of luck with finishing up your phd! 🥰🥰

Advanced Placement (AP) Exam Results: A Comprehensive Reflection

The outcomes of the Advanced Placement (AP) assessments represent the fruits of rigorous academic attempt, intellectual increase, and strategic education. Each 12 months, high school students throughout america and round the sector take AP tests in hopes of earning university credit, status out in university admissions, and validating their mastery of university-degree coursework. For college students, colleges, and educators alike, AP results are greater than simply numbers—they mirror challenges triumph over, teaching effectiveness, and readiness for higher schooling.

AP Score Report For Educators

This 12 months’s AP exam outcomes provided a wealth of insights. After months of in depth look at and instruction, I acquired my scores in early July. I had taken five AP checks: AP English Literature and Composition, AP Calculus AB, AP U.S. History, AP Biology, and AP Psychology. The anticipation leading up to attain release day was palpable, and while the rankings were eventually published, the variety of emotions I experienced became significant.

My effects have been as follows:

AP English Literature and Composition: 4

AP Calculus AB: 5

AP U.S. History: 4

AP Biology: three

AP Psychology: 5

Each rating carried with it a wonderful narrative—a mirrored image no longer best of the check itself however of the journey for the duration of the college 12 months.

AP Calculus AB changed into, in many approaches, the examination I felt maximum organized for. My instructor had a structured approach, making sure we blanketed every unit with exercise troubles, quizzes, and weekly evaluations. I additionally applied supplementary assets like Khan Academy, practice checks from College Board, and peer observe corporations. Scoring a 5 became deeply rewarding—it affirmed my information of differential and crucial calculus and gave me self belief in pursuing STEM publications in college.

AP Psychology, another subject wherein I scored a 5, turned into a marvel success. While the direction turned into content material-heavy, the standards have been intuitive and regularly linked to actual-lifestyles reviews. The combination of day by day flashcards, mock tests, and attractive school room discussions made the getting to know method exciting. The high score became a testament to constant have a look at and a true hobby in the cloth.

On the opposite hand, AP Biology posed a big venture. The sheer volume of records, from cellular respiration to ecological systems, become daunting. While I had a solid hold close on many topics, time constraints and the pressure of the check affected my performance. A score of three, while nevertheless passing, was slightly disappointing. However, it was a valuable gaining knowledge of enjoy—it taught me the significance of pacing, balancing breadth with depth, and spotting while greater targeted observe is wanted.

AP U.S. History and AP English Literature had been each annoying in terms of analytical questioning and writing. In AP U.S. History, the emphasis on crafting proof-primarily based essays and interpreting primary assets helped sharpen my crucial thinking abilities. The course supplied a nuanced view of American history, transferring past dates and occasions to explore themes and contradictions. Scoring a 4 pondered my effort and growth in ancient analysis.

AP English Literature, a direction centered around deep textual analysis and literary interpretation, become both tough and enriching. I evolved a extra appreciation for literature—from Shakespearean tragedy to present day poetry. My rating of four turned into the result of regular essay practice, feedback sessions with my trainer, and peer reviews. While I had was hoping for a five, I identified that the interpretive nature of the examination made it inherently subjective.

These outcomes, taken collectively, provided a holistic view of my educational abilities. They highlighted my strengths in quantitative reasoning and mental standards, as well as regions for improvement in scientific literacy and analytical writing. More importantly, they found out patterns approximately how I research excellent. For instance, in publications in which I hired active recollect, institution discussions, and constant evaluation, my rankings tended to be better.

Beyond character performance, AP examination results are big at a broader level. They function a benchmark for high school academic standards and university readiness. In my faculty, the collective overall performance of college students in AP courses changed into a point of satisfaction. Teachers analyzed trends, figuring out which units or question kinds posed challenges for almost all. This information knowledgeable curriculum modifications, centered interventions, and expert development classes.

For educators, the effects additionally replicate instructional effectiveness. In topics like AP Psychology and AP Calculus, wherein the majority of students scored 4s and 5s, instructors were commended for their readability, engagement, and use of differentiated preparation. In publications with lower average rankings, school participants collaborated to identify instructional gaps, redesign lesson plans, and growth possibilities for practice and feedback.

On a country wide stage, AP rankings make a contribution to ongoing conversations approximately instructional fairness. While get admission to to AP guides has multiplied drastically in latest years, disparities in rankings nevertheless persist based totally on geography, socioeconomic reputation, and school sources. Some college students have get right of entry to to AP labs, exam prep workshops, and experienced teachers, while others depend entirely on textbook gaining knowledge of or self-observe. Understanding those disparities is vital for making the AP application more inclusive and powerful for all students.

Reflecting by myself AP journey, I apprehend that the tests have been not simply checks of knowledge—they had been catalysts for boom. The rigor of AP publications taught me time control, vital thinking, and highbrow curiosity. They driven me past memorization, encouraging synthesis, evaluation, and argumentation. Whether in building a thesis-pushed essay or fixing a multistep calculus trouble, the talents I obtained had been transferable and enduring.

Moreover, the AP experience prepared me for college-stage expectancies. The fast-paced curriculum, common assessments, and emphasis on independent gaining knowledge of reflected what I will come upon in better schooling. Having already earned university credit score in Calculus and Psychology, I additionally have the flexibility to explore superior electives earlier in my university career.

Do you still have that chart of, like, average standardized test scores to college major?

I think you're talking about this one.

To be clear, it is the average GRE quantitative and verbal reasoning scores by college major. So it's not how the average of each college major performs, it's the average of each college major conditional on the individual taking the GRE to apply to grad school. We would expect most groups to be positively selected relative to their overall undergrad population. The extent may vary by major, but the rankings and clusterings feel right for similar topics.

The original post points out some interesting findings and is worth a read.

For me the most notable one is that Economics clusters with the engineering and hard sciences, so maybe grad-level econ has some claim to STEM status, and I can personally say that undergraduate and graduate level econ coursework is worlds apart.

Sometimes I miss the facility. 

I know, that sounds weird, but that was normal for me. An entire era of my life, just living and breathing science and horror, all mixed together into a mush of experience. I try to ignore it though. Push back the memories, try and move on.

Kind of ironic considering what I’m doing.

See, there’s a reason why everybody studying STEM– yes, even the more passive parts of it– takes an ethics course. Before that, the push for innovation– something I think I ended up getting swept into– fuelled most of not all of the coursework and theory we were working on. Always bigger, always better, always fresh and new and original, some reverberation of futurism. Doesn’t matter what it is, just make sure you’re not copying some 10’s or 20’s sci-fi thriller (or do, if you have a permit).

That was the backbone of most of Project PENCIL. (except the copying stuff. That was surprisingly more achievable than we thought; AI generated toons didn’t work out very well for us though)

Ethics can only get you so far in reasonable, level-headed, absolutely sane science. Hence why we left it at the door not long before we gunned it down and kicked it open. But you still have to ensure a reasonable degree of safety and reliability so you can get your results without anything going wrong.

I remember during my first couple weeks, the labs had just finished being built. In one of them, I was on observation duty for an RS test; Rapid Shake. Think of the way you’d open a Coke can if you wanted to ruin somebody’s day. The test chambers are made up of a dome of soft wall panels (I can’t find the CAD file right now so just use your imagination). One of the panels inside the chamber hadn’t been fully attached to the ceiling. They’re made of cushy faux leather stuff, floor to ceiling; good for a wide open space if a toon starts bouncing off the walls. It was hanging right above the Grabber; something we’d retire later for something more multipurpose than a flailing mechanical arm.

I knew it was dangerous. I knew it could hurt someone, staff or toon. But I didn’t say anything. I don’t get personal. I shouldn’t, not here. But you need to understand how deep-seated this whole attitude to PENCIL was, even before LEAD.

I was looking at that risk, that potential for harm… and I was excited. Excited like a little kid hearing an ice cream truck a block away, excited for everything that could cause a catastrophe. Didn’t matter about the consequences, I just wanted to see it happen. I wanted blood on the floor.

We got our toon– a little dog from a pet insurance commercial– and set her in the machine. I didn’t pay attention to the test. All I could think about was that panel; I could have sworn it leaned down a few inches while the Grabber’s hydraulics made the floor buzz.

Here’s what the thoughts of a crazy person sounds like: Fall. Fall. Fall. Fuck it up. Do it. It’s gonna happen. I know it will. Just fall. Fall! Instead of flying birds or stars, we ended up with spiral eyes from all the shaking; something we expected from an anime toon. We swapped her for her best friend– a tabby cat with a company logo stitched to her chest– and we did it all over again.

And I just kept staring.

I pointed out the loose panel, and they sent maintenance to fix it. Heard them muttering something about how good it was someone saw it before something went wrong.

Objectively, I think it’s likely that might have been one of the more tame accidents if it did happen.

There’s a word for that feeling, actually: schadenfreude.

“the experience of pleasure, joy, or self-satisfaction that comes from learning of or witnessing the troubles, failures, pain, or humiliation of another.”

Soon enough, it was baked into the core of our work. Pride in creating suffering, and suffering yourself. Without either… what was your work without it?

I suppose it’s that drive that I miss. That verve, that persistence. LEAD was a pretty good work ethic at the end of the day, helping you keep a rapid pace despite the burnout. Now, I work at my own pace on this.

I’m happy to have that grace at least.
