I just installed my #CleanAirTogether tube. Over the next few weeks this and nearly 400 other tubes will measure levels of air pollution across Galway City. There’s more info about the project at https://t.co/EqiS1f3iiY

A good read from #UNESCO but I'm not sure many will read past the 'When is it safe to use ChatGPT?' flowchart!? #ChatGPT #edtech

[UNESCO IESALC #EducaciónSuperior #HigherEducation @unesco_iesalc]

✅ The "Quick Start Guide: ChatGPT and #ArtificialIntelligence (AI) in #HigherEducation" raises some challenges and ethical implications of #AI in #HigherEd and offers practical steps that higher education institutions can take.

@skehillr I notice the frisbee is still stuck in it...

[Orla Skehill @orlske]

[Orla Skehill @orlske]

@skehillr Yeah, yeah... Heard that one before!

New word for me - skeuomorph.

e.g. the shutter-click sound emitted by most camera phones when taking a picture is an auditory skeuomorph.

What an intriguing little thread!

[The Cultural Tutor @culturaltutor]

Have you ever noticed that the save icon is a floppy disk, even though they became obsolete twenty years ago?

That's called a "skeuomorph" - when something new takes on the appearance of what it replaced.

And once you start to look, they're everywhere...
