Hace días nos reíamos de Trump porque alababa al presidente de Liberia por hablar bien inglés. Muchísimos españoles no saben que Guinea Ecuatorial -el país del padre del Chojín- fue colonia española hasta 1968, el español es su lengua oficial y todo el mundo lo habla.

Harvard hired a researcher to uncover its ties to slavery. He says the results cost him his job: ‘We found too many slaves’ When the extent of the university’s involvement with slavery was unearthed, a scholar tracking descendants of enslaved workers was suddenly fired

“At one point the fear was expressed that if we found too many descendants, it would bankrupt the university,” he said.

A figure in a late medieval manuscript drawn on a margin. They are pulling a missing piece of text on a rope and pointing to a place where it should be inserted.

Mistakes happen! If you forget to insert that one sentence in a paragraph the solution is easy. Just draw a dude in a hood and he will pull the missing text to the right place with a piece of rope!

A thesis that nobody's read, narrated by someone who isn't there, for an audience that doesn't exist. An AI programme has apparently made a podcast out of my PhD thesis, in what seems to be a Guinness World Record attempt for 'most pointless endeavour ever'.

A platform took my PhD thesis and used AI to turn it into a podcast, then emailed me expecting me to be grateful about it. I... am not.

la muy buena gente de @viruseditorial ya tienen a disposición del público (licencia cc) los ensayos de Meredith Whittaker @Mer__edith recogidos en el libro "La plantación y la computadora. Tres ensayos sobre IA, trabajo y esclavitud" […]

Por culpa de la película "Tesis" de pequeño pensaba que en una tesis doctoral siempre te intentaban matar.

Luego cuando fui mayor me di cuenta de que es verdad.

M'està començant a esgotar molt aquesta cosa de vendre la lectura des dels beneficis (pel cervell, per l'aprenentatge, perquè patates) i no per plaer. No és que els beneficis no siguin importants, però tu li dius a un crio que si llegeix serà més llest i fuig per potes

Que sí, que el fas per això el màster, però buscant la “significativitat” potser s’acaba perdent l’interès i el respecte per tots aquests camps de saber….

Evidentment és un màster professionalitzador, però se t’introdueixen un munt de camps teòrics (psicologia, sociologia i filosofia de l’educació, pedagogia, didàctica específica etc.) de manera extremadament dirigida a… treballar.

Crec que aquest, i no que l’alumnat del màster el vegi com un tràmit, és el principal problema del màster de secundària

En tiempos de lamentos por el pirateo de trabajos académicos mediante IA o por la baja implicación de nuestros estudiantes, voy a compartir una experiencia docente nueva de este curso que ha resultado muy enriquecedora: entrevistas a profesorado.

Everything old is new again. My first (class) paper on autism (2007) challenged RFK Jr’s already-disproven vaccine-autism claim. Ethics needed for autism’s biological basis too - new largest study found most autistic adults raised eugenics concerns re: genetic testing:

Ya se acerca la Selectividad 🎓 y, de nuevo (qué pesadumbre), la ofensiva reaccionaria en educación comienza con los discursos de siempre. Hoy os traigo un artículo que está haciendo las delicias de este sector del tuiter docente.

The Added Value of Epistemic Injustice

Today there is a new post on the #projectEPIC blog: what is the added value of applying the notion of #EpistemicInjustice to mental healthcare? epistemicinjusticeinhealthcareproject.blogspot.com/2025/04/the-... #philsky

New Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy article on George Eliot, who translated Spinoza's 'Ethics' and was also a significant philosopher in her own right - written by Clare Carlisle:

¿La nota final es la media de todo el curso? - Albano Alonso Recordemos que la evaluación en etapas obligatorias y en Bachillerato será continua. Esto significa que tendremos en cuenta siempre el progreso de nuestros

✍️Se acerca el final de curso y empezamos a pensar en cómo vamos a determinar la "nota" final, es decir, la valoración obtenida por cada estudiante según su grado de desempeño a lo largo del curso. Hoy escribo sobre ello en mi blog. albanoalonso.info/la-nota-fina...

Should College Graduates Be AI Literate? More institutions are saying yes. Persuading professors is only the first barrier they face.

I'm just getting started on this piece, but I see the AI maniacs have yet another argument to throw at the wall, which is essentially, *Skeptical educators need to learn a whole lot of AI tools or they won't be able to talk their students about why NOT to use them.*
