Grading is automatic I think, bonus was received within 10 minutes for me.

Hey Guys,
I'm working with the guy from Impactstory for the Unpaywall test . Trying to figure out what is confusing everyone. What did you need more clarification of or what did you find really confusing in the examples? Tag me and I will create a work on list for him. These are super nice guys and want to make the examples as clear as possible. Lets help them set the standard


For those needing a reminder for examples here is the instruction link to reference

I actually thought they were all really clear examples and explicitly outlined in the doc that they provided as well, in fact some of the questions were directly from the document. Then again I also have background in looking for research articles and things like that so maybe for workers who don't have that background add an explanation of what an abstract is and why it is there in the first place? That's the only thing I can think of.

Yea if they make it easier they are just going to get shit work again.

You are correct. They were VERY clear in the instructions.

[mod edit] . gotta remember the instructions need to be based off someone who really has no experience in this stuff. they want everyone to be able to work on their hits so it has to be clear as possible.

 

[ecko]

The instructions are laid out the way the wanted them, we do not need to be discussing how to pass a qual. it is hard for a reason.

Well they are still gonna make people pass the test for the qual. so its not so much about making it easier, but making sure its clear what is actually needed. Project has kinda shifted so what they need is more specific.
