What can we learn about assessment and AI from doomscrolling socials?  https://t.co/aRCy7UzYbV

[Lydia Arnold @LydiaJArnold]

Sharing a few thoughts from my HE Professionals talk last week on AI & reimagining assessment. Themes? Compound wicked problems, legitimate concerns, right to opt out, authentic assessment, audience, joy & curiosity.

Latest article -A global systematic map of Pedagogic Action Research in higher education. PedAR is geographically concentrated; is often a one time thing for authors; appears dominated by mixed or unclear methods; is a barometer for sector concerns & more! https://t.co/guGPILU3Y1 #SoTL #Education #Pedagogy #Research

Interested in writing together with others? This book from Verity Aiken& the late Lin Norton, is a treasure trove of ideas on how to succeed in writing partnerships.
In our chapter we explore methods of technology that we have each used over years

As an L&T person I agree that we do need more critical voices in these central spaces, &we should think about our offer as politicised. I am both for evidence based practice & a good dose of criticality. Surely both can be hold? IMHO L&T people should engage with this critique.

AI: Would you like me to rewrite your introduction and models section into a smoother article-style draft while keeping your references?
Me: No, but I am switching my font to Times New Roman so I can feel accomplished at least.

Navigating AI in Higher Education: Six Principles - here's a summary from my @_AdvanceUK talk earlier today #AISymp26 https://t.co/IP211r1C7R

New research shows that fatigue from Teams, Zoom and other virtual meetings is a demonstrable neurological phenomenon. It differs from the fatigue experienced in face-to-face settings (brain images show that). Certain platform features, such as seeing our own faces, makes the fatigue worse.
Scientifically-based strategies to address "Teams fatigue":
1) Mix in some audio-only meetings (eg, phone calls/conference calls): this reduces the cognitive load and means people can move about during the meeting
2) Try to stick with one platform: switching between Teams, Zoom, Google Meet etc, makes the fatigue worse
3) Practice "IT mindfulness": actively explore & adapt the technology to better suit your needs
4) Switch off the "self-view" function (so others can see your face on screen but you cant): in virtual settings, maintaining a continuous self-view can unintentionally affect both individual performance & group dynamics

Really enjoyed this … a robust critique of learning outcomes, reminding us all that however long we’ve worked with an educational idea, we should keep a critical view. It’s made it on to our postgrad reading list & I’ve already referred to it in a talk about assessment.

Last week, in a panel discussion, I mentioned an approach to pedagogy that’s been in my mind for a while … so here’s The Pedagogy of Letting Go

My latest blog summarises my recent conference talk on AI issues in learning, teaching and assessment. It's a wide-ranging ramble, includes skills for the future, AI and SoTL, and ways to navigate AI uncertainty (and more ...) https://t.co/Qpg1PJSXrz

@hintondm @LTHEchat Nuts and bolts matter! The world changes around us (fast) and so revisiting key questions is often helpful A6 #LTHEChat

[Lydia Arnold @LydiaJArnold]

@LTHEchat A6 #LTHEChat more ways of supporting new colleagues, and maybe we need to look at platform (with a heavy heart as Twitter has been my favourite ❤️‍🩹 )

[Lydia Arnold @LydiaJArnold]

@hintondm @LTHEchat Q5 (tough Q) - information literacy as priority (please), and more diverse ways to access learning for diverse needs. #LTHEChat

[Lydia Arnold @LydiaJArnold]

@pawley_susan @LTHEchat @DrKristandl Agree this was fab #LTHEchat

[Lydia Arnold @LydiaJArnold]

@LTHEchat A3 welcoming, giving, wise #LTHEchat

I’d say creative but now I can’t find a gif!

@LTHEchat @santanuvasant @ProfSallyBrown @suebecks @SFaulknerPandO And I met @LJ_Rees who has been a consistent source of ideas, and a @PebblePad ally over the years!

[Lydia Arnold @LydiaJArnold]

Who ? So many @santanuvasant @ProfSallyBrown @suebecks @SFaulknerPandO and many more - there are people here for a reason, season or some for all events. For me - many moments of enlightenment, podcast links, so much modelling of social media scholarship (is that a thing … ) … oh and … learning that I’m slow to respond!

[Lydia Arnold @LydiaJArnold]

@LTHEchat A1 - for me this is community- keeping on top of emerging ideas, making links that translate to real life, and it’s a place of kindness where all are made welcome! #LTHEChat
