[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This can’t be real. Are schools really going to use this in admissions? “ This fall, an expanding number of top schools — including Columbia, M.I.T., Northwestern, Johns Hopkins, Vanderbilt and the University of Chicago — will begin accepting “dialogues” portfolios from Schoolhouse.world, a platform co-founded by Sal Khan, the founder of Khan Academy, to help students with math skills and SAT prep. High-schoolers will log into a Zoom call with other students and a peer tutor, debate topics like immigration or Israel-Palestine, and rate one another on traits like empathy, curiosity or kindness. [b]The Schoolhouse.world site offers a scorecard: The more sessions you attend, and the more that your fellow participants recognize your virtues, the better you do.”[/b] https://www.nytimes.com/2025/07/15/opinion/college-admissions-essays.html?unlocked_article_code=1.Wk8.Q6mj.mdE1wwoF5Huh&smid=url-share [/quote] This was a Black Mirror episode, no?[/quote]
