I've been writing a lot on substack lately. Not quite at 2015-longform-twitter-thread levels of prolific but more than nothing. If you're on that orange side of the internet, hit me up ❤️ Some non fic. Some higher ed. Some memoirs. See you there. @hpstorian/note/p-172390110?r=43vxiu" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">substack.com/@hpstorian/not…

High stakes exams might make it harder for students to get genAI to write their essays, but they make it easier for genAI to mark them. Exams were already a way that academics made their courses more efficient (no feedback). That's going to bite.

Invigilation is not a specialist skill, and while there might be a little delay as AI cheating tech like wearables catch up to exams, it is a skill easily automated. That applies to marking too.

AI isn't a threat to academics because it can do our jobs (it can't) its danger comes from the harm it does to our institutions' primary way of making money: the certification of degrees. This is not "the value of a degree goes down", it is in the costs of invigilation.

When you talk to your students about citation and authorship, about critical thinking and analysis, you're also talking to them about modes of relating to sources and tools. I made this scale to aid those conversations. The high res version is here 😃 bit.ly/4fpteUv

Ibises clean up after us, eating ciggy butts, only to be called 'bin chickens' by the ungrageful. We, humans, are the real bin chickens.

This may be futile given where I ask this but has anyone attempted to scrub their online presence - FB, Insta and Twitter - and yet wanted to keep everything they can archived somewhere? How did you go about it? What tools did you use?
