Hi/hola A colleague and I have different opinions about whether the following paragraph contains errors or not: "The Learning Analytics field is still criticised for the lack of much evidence that shows the improvements in teaching and learning (there is some, but it it rather limited; we are currently doing a relevant review in this regard). Many studies are measuring STILL, because there is data available." Can you identify any errors in the paragraph, especially the last sentence? Regards

"Can I please ask if John be removed from all of their subject classrooms?" Is it correct? I've just got an email with this question above, which made me frown. Since the author is undoubtedly literate, I am wondering if either the author simply missed "can" after "John" ("...if John can be...") or this is some polite way to ask things I'd never heard of yet.

My student Jamie Jamie has come back to his original behaviour. He acts like he's in a kindergarten. Once again, he sits wherever he wants, and immediately logs in the system to quickly look for his favourite online game and play. This is not extremely surprising in kids, but he would keep trying the second I lose control over him, even after my warnings. He often stands up, walks in the class as it was -again- a bar. Talks to anyone outloud, even from one side of the room to the other. Whatever the teacher tries to correct him about ("Go to your place", "Close the game", "Open MS Access", "Don't stand up", etc), he usually doesn't obey immediately, but instead asks "Why" repeatedly, which takes a precious amount of time and effort to make him follow instructions, and he knows it. All this behaviour can be understood (up to a point) giving his hyperactivity. However, lies and disrespect have nothing to do with hyperactivity, as it's explained next. About playing games in class, he actually lied 3 times on Thursday ("Ok, won't do it again"), for which he was sent out. Same thing on Friday. 3 warnings, and he was out. After 5-7 minutes I let him in and moved him close to me (right behind me, next to the screen). He continued interrupting the class when I was talking to the whole group. I turned around every time, staring at him in silence for 2 seconds, and he would say "What??", meaning "I did nothing". Then, after, meanwhile most of the students were already progressing with the assignment, he was doing little or none, plus I caught him playing games again and talking. Then I finally said "Ok, Jamie. Enough is enough. Stand up and step out of the classroom". He replied shouting "What? What did I do? Are you MENTAL?", which caused all the class go silent. He would've have a referral anyway (given that this behaviour is reincident, after three days out of class), but this crosses another red line. Disrespect, and in public. Furthermore, not only did he show this behaviour IN class, but also from the hallway. Once outside, he would enter the classroom anyway whenever he thought he needed to (twice). Every time, I had to stop class once again and ask him to leave. Or, instead, he would open the door and talk out loud from there as it were a pub. Overall, many minutes out of 50 we have were invested only in Jamie, and nothing was related to Computing Science.

"Enough internet to last you the month". Is this correct? I've just run into this piece of text and although I get what it tries to say, I struggled to recognise one of the structures in it ("to last you the month"). Here it is: "When organising your internet make sure you sign up for enough internet to last you the month as it's very expensive if you go over your allowance." I've never seen an expression like this, in 20 years. Is it good English?
