[Natalie White-Wall, PhD @nataliegwall]

A few weeks ago I finally #graduated from my #PhD in Psychiatry from the @Uni_Newcastle. I'm so proud of the work that I was a part of and how much I learnt along the way.

🚨 New research study🚨

We're recruiting tertiary educators who reside any where in the world to understand the perceptions of genAI use in tertiary education via a brief anon questionnaire.  See study info to participate or for more details: https://t.co/RaB1BQwxLU

So basically it will take minimum five years to produce a document that no one will read or cite?

@HermioneClone I absolutely agree with you. Normalising that it hurts to receive critical feedback is important. Thank you for being so vulnerable.

[Natalie White-Wall, PhD @nataliegwall]

My [minor] contribution was funded through a COVID-19 grant to work on a project outside my PhD while we were in lockdown in New South Wales, Aus. Thank you Grad Research @Uni_Newcastle 🥲.

[Natalie White-Wall, PhD @nataliegwall]

🚨New article out exploring the use of ERPs (MMN & P3b) as potential biomarkers for autism and adhd. It's open access in @EegClinical. I appreciated the opportunity to contribute to this work during my PhD.

[Dr Emma Beckett @DrEmmaBeckett]

Hello! Do you have a science degree (but not a PhD!)?I'm compiling a list of jobs people have in science WITHOUT doing PhDs for my first-year students want to make the list a little more diverse. Bonus points for adding details about what you do to go with the job title/industry!

[Natalie White-Wall, PhD @nataliegwall]

@stalman Wow! Stunning.

I think it's extremely important for all students to understand the ethics of using genAI. But, I also want to showcase the exciting ways they can use these tools to enhance their learning.

[Natalie White-Wall, PhD @nataliegwall]

With the recent AI developments from @Google (see #NotebookLM) and @ChatGPTapp/@OpenAI (see #GPT-4), I have been thinking about how to incorporate AI tools in my classes (see🧵 below). Interested to hear what others in #academia are doing too...

[Natalie White-Wall, PhD @nataliegwall]

A potential class idea might be: I teach pre-service teachers about growth mindset. Students read research and textbook chpt. on the topic. In groups they use a tool (e.g @canva) to generate a few pages of a children's book (pics & images) to apply knowledge + understanding.

For the final keynote session of #INSAR2024 we have @WennLawson. I always enjoy hearing him speak. First up, he showed this video developed by @AutismSA "If The World Were Built for Me" https://t.co/2dwonmkyms

[Natalie White-Wall, PhD @nataliegwall]

It's interesting to hear that there are the same challenges from presenters related to recruitment and time... Regardless if it's autistic or non-autistic research. Working with teachers and schools from the beginning seems to be a potential way forward.

[Natalie White-Wall, PhD @nataliegwall]

Day 2 of #INSAR2024 has begun! Did anyone else enjoy the lemon myrtle scones with jam and cream at morning tea? I might need to find a recipe...

[Natalie White-Wall, PhD @nataliegwall]

I'm attending the panel on intervention research in schools now. I think this has been one of the sessions I've been looking forward to most.
