    I've done 15 of them already. I search for 10 mins for stuff. I've found info for 12/15 of those and if I can't find it, I write a brief explanation in the comment box about how long I searched, where I looked and what I found, if anything. I know he won't reject me for putting in the effort, even if I didn't find it.

    I use this site first:

    http://www.slategroup.org/

    and see if the school in in that system. If it is, it gives me all the info I need right away. If not, then I google:

    "[school name]" lms and going from there.

    He reduced the pay from 0.30 down to 0.27. What are you doing if they don't have any objectionable material in them.

    I'm marking the closest thing to objectionable if they don't have anything in them. There's no option for the ones that are close or not, and you have to select one.

    ILU naisybee!

    I've got a handful in through Google, been explaining mainly who heads the department responsible for the LMS.

    But...

    ILU naisybee <3!

    Haha! :) Yea, he's a great requester and if I put the effort into it and still can't find it, I'm going to tell him what I did, where I went, and submit it. If I can't find it, no need to give it to someone else not to find! Good luck! :)

    Oh yea, I forgot to mention that. But usually in google when you search lms, both come up and then you can find the name of what they call theirs specifically and go from there.

    https://www.mturk.com/mturk/return?...rZBlc29cNnCecGnY=&externalHit=true&canAccept=

    This was interesting for those who don't mind their picture being taken.

    Description: In this HIT you are asked to mimic facial expressions. We need expressions of eight emotions, sometimes with additional snapshots for different head positions. *** This task requires that you have a flash player, a web camera and that you provide your consent for your picture to be taken, uploaded to our servers and shared with other workers to verify how well you have performed. *** Notice: You can only do four (4) HITs of this type. After that you will see a message urging you to return a HIT. *** We're just starting with our system and welcome your feedback.

    The TO is good and it pays 0.48 a Hit.

    Edit* Just noticed auto approval is 1 day. So we'll see.

    It says 1 day auto approval. If there is not an image are you marking the ones without the image also the blank boxes?

    Question if anyone on is approved for CS Top Tier... How much writing experience did you have professionally/turk related before you took it, do they provide you with any feedback/personalized help should you not qualify?

    Slategroup website helped, thanks naisy, but I'm definitely lacking all motivation now it seems, especially now that I'm worrying about not seeing any more Rubins for a while. This whole batch is for schools we've seen in the past course/instructor batches, making me wonder if we've run through the whole list...
