    Yes. On word.

    He recorded, and scrolled the screen down every minute or so, rather than send me the actual document.

    I just saw this. I cannot stop laughing. I may be over tired and hysterical but wow. Like did they sit there and read it so that they scrolled at the right time?

    Tell him you can't play his video so he needs to scan every frame into powerpoint so when you scroll through the slides it'll appear like a movie.

    Yep. He did. 8 minute video. Not something I'm going to forget.

    I had two today

    One with a ‘I couldn’t find the test’. Google doc history? He not only had been in the document, he had personally deleted all of the images.....

    Second ‘my paper didn’t have a 3c’. But then uploaded an image of 3b with the edge of their answer to 3c visible....

    Student returned an English exam to me in the subject bar of their email. God bless them. I obviously only ended up receiving half the first sentence before replying and asking them to resend in the body.

    Another never sent the exam, yet when I got in touch to query it, he was offended and sent me a screenshot of it in his sent items, dated the day the exam was on. Slight problem - he had sent it to himself and not me.

    Another returned theirs in photos. One of each in every orientation except for the right way up!!

    It's funny now because it's over. It wasn't funny at the time.

    Even though it is in the states, everything he said applies to my school aswell! (we have a separate room where we can slam down the phone though)

    We are using Seesaw . A child tried something similar - she moved her phone rapidly over 3 pages . And every bit totally out of focus .

    I'm using Google Classroom, I had a student having a great time, cancelling all the comments I made and resubmitting the work. I'm not doing it again! God love these kids, they can use TikTok but can't press the 'Turn in' button :)
    I was distributing the homework on OneNote, but if anyone didn't feel like doing it, they could just delete the task from their section :mad:
