Excited for my 1st time at #AERA as an official PhD! Find me & @nataliebmilman at 10:50am today talking feminist pedagogy with a panel of amazing online education researchers. #AERA24
Also, this week's announcements includes our location for our #AERA23 Civics of Tech Meet-up. If you're in Chicago, join us at D4 Irish Pub & Cafe (345 E Ohio St, Chicago, IL 60611, USA) on Friday, April 14th from 5-7pm CST. Check back here for updates. See you there!
🤖NEW BLOG🤖 @mariekheath @DrSumreen_STEM@nataliebmilman@JessaEdTech discuss their recent article which aims to draw attention to forms of coded inequity in teacher and technology education. https://t.co/paPZyfeez9
Attention #secondary#STEM teachers: Have time to spare? Of course not, but I'd be thankful for 20-30 minutes of your time for a virtual simulation on using algorithmic advice in decisions. Sign up to participate in this dissertation research at https://t.co/ugmSAczYPx
In a new report, @annelies_goger, @JessaEdTech, @nataliebmilman & others consider how education technologies are creating new opportunities & challenges in achieving #SDG4.

Seeking #STEM secondary #teachers & undergrad #sciencefaculty to participate in #PhD#dissertation research on how you use algorithmic advice for professional decisions. Must be in the US to participate. Sign up for the virtual simulation at https://t.co/smBsBkSMEX
Had a wonderful time sharing some takeaways from my case study research on the innovative work of @IUAMicroCreds. Thanks for allowing me to join the conversation @BrookingsGlobal!
Our last panel of the day bringing focus to real-life examples of verifiable credentials, blockchain for education, skills-based employment, and micro-credentials domestic and abroad, with reps from @LEGOfoundation@USCCFoundation@gwGSEHD. #WorkforceDevelopment
These are elementary school children who woke up this morning. Who ate their favorite cereal. Who tied their shoes in double knots. Who laughed with friends on the bus. Now more than a dozen are dead. This isn’t normal. It doesn’t have to be this way. It can’t keep being this way
I love this. I also wonder if there's a middle ground: use the term "AI" AND define what you mean as precisely as possible so readers build up a critical understanding of what the term could mean when they inevitably encounter it elsewhere.
The Center on Privacy & Technology at Georgetown Law is removing “artificial intelligence,” “AI,” and “machine learning” from its institutional vocabulary. Read why in this piece from its Executive Director, Emily Tucker: https://t.co/3Fe4T3Ctq7
I’m not jumping the Twitter-ship (currently) but what other digital spaces exist (& are good) for academic collaboration/networking/learning/research sharing? I’m interested in spaces that are multi- or inter-disciplinary. Something other than LinkedIn? #AcademicTwitter
“Who benefits from pushing these decisions off to a supposedly objective computer? How would this system further concentrate power and what systems of governance should we demand to oppose that?” EdTech & learning analytics can benefit from these discussions as well. (2/2).
Her key questions are so good: “What patterns in the training data will lead the systems to replicate and perpetuate past harms against marginalized groups? What will happen to people subjected to the system’s decisions, if the system operators believe them to be accurate?” (1/2)
@emilymbender Love the key questions & relevant to more than just journalists. Policy makers & system users should also be asking themselves those questions.
