Mags is arguing for critical realism, as it allows for a mind independent reality, but also fallible knowledge about reality and the role of the scientists in science

Turnitin locking in AI detection (giving institutions no choice to turn it off) seems to me like a last ditch, all-in effort to remain relevant. How about you?

Alternative @jordanbpeterson - "People who factcheck the copious rubbish and hateful fictions I spew forth to my gullible fan base are meanies" Peterson's entire empire pivots on "pseudo-profound bullshit" - let's look at that - a short thread..🧵

Take a look at this new infographic for a 2021 article by @DrKateThomson & Simon Barrie: 'Conversations as a source of professional learning: exploring the dynamics of camaraderie and common ground amongst university teachers' - doi.org/10.1080/1360144X.202…
Infographic for a 2021 article by Kate Thomson and Simon Barrie. The infographic has an overview, results and implications section. It also has figure that consists of 3 intertwined circles: camaraderie, similarity and proximity. It ends with a box that explains "How can proximity, similarity and camaraderie help to grow academic networks and enhance learning"

Academics "riding their fear carousel"(@Anda19) can't think about innovative ways to use #ChatGTP. So I asked ChatGTP: "If AI is part of future professional workflows how can academics get students to use it ethically as part of an assessment" Their reply: #highered #assessment

New theory*: those who write off online teaching / learning as inherently inferior have probably not yet had a really good online learning experience. Implication: they may be less qualified to comment on the issue than others. * actually an old theory

COVID didn't wreck the economy. Science deniers wrecked the economy. The poor aren't struggling. The ultra rich are profiting off the backs of the poor. The planet isn't burning. The fossil fuel industry is burning the planet.

When asked, the Treasurer couldn't give even one justification for Labor's Stage 3 tax cuts. Not one. Scrap Labor's Stage 3 tax cuts now.

Hey Jim Chalmers. You can save $247 million over the next 4 years by defunding Christian Chaplains in State schools. The diversity of the new Govt should show how exclusive and discriminatory that is. Trained Counsellors please.
