Issues with procurement have come up in several conversations today at #reclaimopen (I am now a Chip Germain #bigFan) so here’s a shameless plug for a talk I did at #OTESSA23 recently and which I’ll reprise at #ALTC later this year (and which @brennacgray and I also have a book chapter on coming soon).

One thing my mentors told me: You have to stop and celebrate your wins.

So, I received the #OTESSA #OTESSA23 graduate award for my work on peace education in the platform society! I am deeply honoured by this award.

I can see why people were raving about Sarah Eaton's #OTESSA23 keynote "Academic Integrity in the
Age of Artificial Intelligence" -- it packs a lot of sense in (tech panics, academic integrity arms race, Ethical Principles for Detecting AI-Generated Text in Student Work).... plus what ChatGPT has in common with Kleenex and a case made for using the term "confabulation"

Heard recording is in process of being YouTubed, but here's slides

big day. two presentations down at #OTESSA23, one #CSSE talk left to give. proud of my grad RA team & happy to be here with them.

here are the slides from my OTESSA invited talk, Digital Ed in an Age of Data: What Do We Do NOW?

it's built on my #OER23 talk from April but includes AI - & the hype cycle & gold rush it has generated - in its literacies lens. SPOILER: it has zero answers. but i think it raises a call for change & offers some paths i'm taking :)

key point: the context of crisis produces variables that exceed what can be captured by standardized measures. while there's a push for research into what happened in hybrid learning, this is a cautionary lesson to Boards considering experiments

the ways Boards enacted policy/training around hybrid learning are a core element of
Farhadi's #otessa23 presentation on the #ONTEd hybrid experience: diff attendance policies, diff training levels, etc.

+ unions' capacity to resist was overridden by crisis mode.

additional tension that emerged in @BBFarhadi's work: hybrid created barriers & challenges for communities most impacted by societal inequity, yet at the same time racialized students were, in some districts, more likely to stay online longer

finding: hybrid learning really challenged teachers' assessment practices, & focus groups brought out how teachers are often engaged in conversations related to practice & assessment

appreciate @BBFarhadi highlighting the tension between media presentation of idealized middle classness - with space, quiet & digital resources for students learning at home - & the reality of students, during hybrid's early days

Tuesday at #otessa23! very excited to hear Beyhan Farhadi's
work on crisis education policy & hybrid learning in Ontario.

she makes a clear distinction between hybrid (PP memorandum 164 - Aug 13/20) & Ontario's mandatory elearning policy

#otessa23 keynote with @DrSarahEaton closes with clear reference to the AI tools she used and how. great & thoughtful talk :)
