@DrRossPerkins @friesennorm @lesliemb I think there are some really valid points here.

[Leif Nelson @leifnelson]

@RMoeJo The concern would be a symptom of an educational system with misplaced values/priorities.

Among black families, the average financial benefit of a college degree fell to zero for those born in the ’70s and 80's. https://t.co/e6L9qWHwo1

Why do financial companies like Tyton Partners want to have so much influence on U.S. education?

Let me protest against the common method of estimating intellectual work by numerical standards alone. If such a standard were allowable, the largest number of scholars taught by the cheapest teacher would be
the greatest success. . . this is wrong, absolutely wrong. Gilman, 1885

Higher education is often framed as serving the needs of "industry" or "the economy" with special attention to making the poor and people of color "employable." I wonder if this rhetoric is helping to solve inequality or if it is reinforcing it? e.g., @UIAinnovation @c3lresearch

The language of adaptive learning & analytics, as in this Educause video, advances a neo-Fordist ideology and instrumental rationalism (i.e., "efficiency") while distorting individuality and equity https://t.co/b1jsGlhwf2 #preparingformydissertationdefense

@1KrishnaPakala Thank you, @1KrishnaPakala

@blacktimelord Is there a risk that mastery and competency prioritizes individualistic over social aspects of education the latter of which courses and classes may support?

[Leif Nelson @leifnelson]

@KavuBob Have presented a time or two and there's an old article in Educause Review, though my ideas have evolved since then. https://t.co/VoNhffNLEP

@14prinsp Presumably, higher education creates self-empowered, creative, free citizens. Every word of "our models predicting student success" should be problematized.

[Leif Nelson @leifnelson]

Anyone know of "history of AI and machine learning in education" type summaries or taxonomies? #edtech #ai #edresearch #education
