The whole concept of true vs fake is being reshaped. We need philosophers and ethicists advising on GenAI.

Did you know that in Italian we have a specific word to indicate "to bubble slowly like ragu" or "to make a bubbling noise like ragu"? It's "pippitiare".
Italian does not have a specific word for leadership.

Interaction tools (Kahoot, Mentimeter and similar) that allow for anonymous engagement during synchronous sessions. They are not always exactly what I need, but lowering the threshold for everyone to participate more is so important to my practice!

I see, okay, probably too quick a reading by me then - sorry. I hope the increased emphasis and expanded focus is what the "new" wants to remark on, encouraging for more submissions, rather than a self-indulgent note 😊

I am not sure then of your point in the original post... What's embarrassing about this? 🤔
10/10 to ANZAME for changing to ANZAHPE, but it's a different education context. It was 2011 when in med school I was told not to trust nurses, and nursing students were being taught not to trust doctors 😕

IIRC, interprofessional education has been an explicit submission theme since at least 2014 (my first of this conference). Also worth remembering that many countries struggle to implement IPE because of structural challenges (tbh we do too at my uni), plus the focus of this new track goes beyond IPE

Improving accessibility to Medical and Health Professions Education means stronger healthcare systems! 🏥🧑⚕️ Also, OERs reduce costs for institutions, reducing reliance on publishers and their extortionate pricing 🤑💰. Ask a Librarian how to find an OER to include in your course! #AcademicSky

Nara and I chose to publish Diagnosis as an Open Educational Resource. We know first-hand how hard it is to advocate for institutional access to quality educational resources for students. This creates inequities between learners, disadvantaging already underprivileged learners!

A wall? Or a Project Tracker? 😄

Sigh. One of the pieces of "feedback" that I got from my promotion application was that I don't do enough teaching. Apparently, I do "mostly coordinating and management of learning activities for students". Traditional norms, cultures, and structures die hard... (still salty)

skills are no longer required. However, epistemic skills are still required, and foundational to be citizens of an internet- and AI-enabled society. Higher Ed should not be the place where this happens, though. It should be part of compulsory education. /end

The shift "from publishing to participating" (Terry Flew, New Media) abated technical skills requirements and handheld devices meant the internet was no longer in a place (an internet café, or a desk with a PC at home) but everywhere. Similarly, GenAI has only become a topic now because technical 🧵

To join a conversation I wasn't in, it's not just the internet. Two things happened, simultaneously & connectedly, between 2005 and 2015, and changed the world: the advent of smart handheld devices and the rise of social media (This may be what Tim implied, but worth clarifying, perhaps?) 🧵/2 or 3

Thank you Karen ❤️ I know I am surrounded by great scholars and mentors who will help me work through this - including in this digital space. I won't let shame isolate me, and I trust the community 🥰

I know there will be a time for learning from failure and bouncing back better, but I am allowing myself time to feel anger, frustration, & disappointment: at how all our expertise and work on making higher education better for our learners aren't reflected in internal processes and policies. /end

I believe I met promotion criteria. My application might not have shown that, but I know my work does. I still haven't received good feedback on this: specific, dialogic, goal-oriented, etc. I am angry that criteria overwhelmingly hinge on what can be measured. Not all that counts can be counted. 🧵

I'm already overwhelmed by the number of publications (papers, articles, posts, substacks) I feel I should be reading every day. Productivity expectations are already too high, and academia and academics are suffering. www.timeshighereducation.com/opinion/are-...
