Pleased to receive a Growth award from the @ToolsCompete to "supercharge" our #opensource adaptive tutoring project in an age of #GenAI, building off of recently published research. tools-competition.org/winner/oatutor…

Impressive learning results for ChatGPT prompted the study authors to boldly predict that “completely autonomous generation” of an effective computerized tutoring system is “around the corner." hechingerreport.org/proof-points-c… via @jillbarshay

Hats off to Assoc Prof @zpardos and his OATutor. The field's first open-source intelligent tutoring system and creative commons content library is a finalist in @ToolsCompete "Engaging Adult Learners in Higher Education" - Growth Award category.

Very excited about our upcoming @jla_editorial panel discussion with @OlgaOvi @sbuckshum @zpardos @jeljov on "Generative AI and Learning Analytics" at #Lak24 in Kyoto, Japan. Join us is you are here at the conference :)

@markwarschauer Too clever for Twitter

@markwarschauer The mystique is that OpenAI possesses a singular talent for progressing AI past its current frontier. There's some credibility to that, but as you point out, the market forces in this space are great and it may not be a viable business plan to shift into low gear.

OpenAI is on the verge of failure due to alignment issues

@colorado_reed Congrats, Colorado

I've finished my PhD at UC Berkeley! It took 10 years total, a 5-year startup, and a lot of wonderful collaborations. Thanks everyone! I'm headed to Seattle next, to join a wonderful research team at Apple.

@GarronHillaire It took 5 minutes to "craft" the DALL-E prompt that generated the image? 🤔

Can someone explain to me how this is a 5-minute craft?

In the newest @UCBerkeley Data Science Undergraduate Studies podcast episode, @zpardos, @Berkeley_Educ associate professor, speaks about how to use AI to improve education. Listen here! #details" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">datascienceeducation.substack.com/p/leveraging-a…

The #las23ed Call for Submissions is up: learningatscale.acm.org/las2023/organi…. The conference will be in Continental Europe for the first time! Organized jointly by @KTHuniversity & @koebenhavns_uni, co-hosted w/@IC2S2 in #Copenhagen. W/opportunities for both great research & #hygge.

What indicates that a course is going to be a lot of work or stressful? Not credit hours (r² = 0.06) Course attributes like number of prerequisites and how much in advance assignments are posted explain 6x more Time for a new measure? sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Resilience or Loss? Dueling narratives on the response of students and instructors to the pandemic are explored in this @UCBerkeley senate report which draws from a novel analysis of 29K course LMS records.
