Here's a friendly reminder that "AI" is a broad term encompassing lots of things. Machine learning and "AI" have been around along time. I suspect, in many cases, when people express concerns about "AI" they really mean "Generative AI." www.forbes.com/sites/bernar...

Prompted by the recent destruction of data cables in the Baltic Sea, my new article for @rtebrainstorm.bsky.social considers why these cables are technologically critical and geopolitically sensistive. www.rte.ie/brainstorm/2...

Why Irish undersea cables are seen as potential military targets. As we grow more reliant on digital infrastructure, these cables will become increasingly attractive targets to hostile nations, writes @jason-power.bsky.social @unioflimerick.bsky.social www.rte.ie/brainstorm/2...

My latest @rtebrainstorm.bsky.social piece critically examines the shortcomings of education manifestos. It highlights how they often serve as voter-appealing tools rather than blueprints for systemic change and meaningful reform @dcuioe.bsky.social Link below 👇 www.rte.ie/brainstorm/2...

Those of us in Irish education used to have a civilised hour's Mon evening discussion each week 'over there' under the aegis of the excellent Fred Boss. This evening fire in comments with #edchatie too & let's see where we are. And wave if you're not in this: go.bsky.app/BqbTnC7 pls 'repost'.

I occasionally do some popsci writing for our national broadcaster. In this article I take a look at the technology and environmental impact related to disposable vapes www.rte.ie/brainstorm/2...

Not sure if I did this right or not, but here are scholars who study motivation in educational settings, mostly affiliated with @aera-motsig.bsky.social and @aeraedresearch.bsky.social go.bsky.app/3PuVgdT

In an attempt to restart the engineering community here after it fell apart overthere I have created a starterpack: go.bsky.app/LTv9bgL. Feel free to add/delete yourself (i think that’s how it works)

In this study we looked at peer and self assessment in engineering education. We identified design features that enhance effectiveness and student experience #STEM #Education #Research www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

This study looked at the development of student teacher self-efficacy across a school placement experience. We observed increases in self-efficacy and job satisfaction, and a negative correalation with stress #STEM #Education #Research doi.org/10.1080/0261...
