It was to see some many friends in Philadelphia for the @comm4rigor.bsky.social meeting a couple of weeks ago. Together we are developing free online materials for researchers interested in doing rigorous science.

The first units are coming soon at c4r.io.

Trump administration to add $100,000 fee for H-1B visas The Trump administration is targeting a visa widely used by tech companies and other employers to hire foreign workers.

Of all the stupid things that this regime has done, this is right up near the top. Postdoctoral researchers come to the US on H-1B visas. This will further destroy the US science enterprise. Stupid stupid stupid.

US Reading decline is dramatic over the last 20 years, but no decline among teens...because they never read much in the first place, a point I've been harping on for years, as people often focus on social media & teens re: ⬇️ in reading.

At risk of being a broken-ass record about this:

If you don't like writing -- and these "mechanics" are an invaluable AND ENJOYABLE piece of the process for those of us who do -- then maybe just like don't be a writer?

Enjoyed writing this piece for national media in Ireland on EdTech in schools.

In a nutshell:

The harms of datafication and platformisation of schools are not abstract because sooner or later your school is going to be hacked and your child's data put up for sale on the dark web...

Fascinating #LongRead on the future of human labour in a world of increasingly productive #AI. One early nugget that kinda shocked me is that we have apparently spent most than 10x the total cost of the Manhattan Project on #GenerativeAI (or possibly AI more broadly).

Be careful with who you share information with and your plans. Some people will actively try to harm you and your career behind your back. I wish philosophy had a venue to warn others of some really bad people. #philsky #philtech

We have to rethink academic integrity in a β€˜post-plagiarism era’ What is the future of plagiarism as a concept in the AI age and what are the implications for assessment? This resource seeks to answer these questions, among others

So many are still dragging their feet on updating academic integrity for #AIedu integration. Stop creating unclear and unrealistic blanket #academicintegrity statements that don’t address the nuances of AI use in education. www.timeshighereducation.com/campus/we-ha...
