🧭 Wie lässt sich KI-Nutzung in Studium und Lehre gut orientieren?
Das aktuelle #OER des Monats bietet einen Selbstlernkurs rund um KI in der Hochschullehre. Über eine Moodle-Lernlandkarte führen sieben H5P-Präsentationen durch Themen wie wissenschaftliches Arbeiten, Kennzeichnung von KI, Prüfungen und rechtliche Grundlagen.

A doctoral student recently came with a weird question: their supervisor told them that "examiners would be reassured" by seeing many connections on LinkedIn.
I have many ethical issues with the framing and with LinkedIn itself (despite having an account there), but I'd love to know from experienced scholars (maybe examiners themselves): how and why would examiners be concerned with my LinkedIn account?

RE: https://mstdn.social/@junesim63/115849070993758165

I find appalling that West universities are so silent about this, and many still cooperating with Israeli universities, while schools of arts and humanities like the one I'm doing my PhD fill their mouth of "class struggle, decoloniality and [insert your favourite academic leftwing jargon].

#AcademicMastodon #AcademicFedi #Academia #HigherEd

Remember the academic dogma: decolonisation, politics, systemic analysis...all are for an intellectual entertainment to produce papers, not to be applied in real life.

Hey academic Fedi,
I'm regularly thinking that it would be useful to have a tool that helps me find articles that cite a paper to contradict (or at least "contrast") its result.

It seems that scite [1] does this but they requires a pretty steep subscription given that I'm not sure how reliable their tool is and that they also advertise a chatbot...

[1]: https://scite.ai

Does anyone know of something similar, or a workaround to achieve something similar using standard scientific search engines?

If you don't know, boosts are also appreciated to help the person who might know see this post 😉

I really enjoyed @Felienne's narrative about narratives about Computer Science yesterday. She applied some of the ideas presented in the Glaciers, Gender and Science paper (https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.1177/0309132515623368) to her experiences in the Computer Science / Programming Languages communities. She's also starting a reading club to brainstorm the meaning (and the name?) of the field of "Computer Science".

Yesterday at ICT.OPEN I also attended a panel discussion on "Bridging the Gap between Research and Industry through Application-Oriented AI Innovations"

It was mostly academics in the room, but I had an interesting chat with Dr. Floor Campfens and my colleague Dr. Anna Lukina afterwards, where we talked about the research done at RIWO, and of course our research at TU Delft.

TU Delft will join the relay strike on 24 April!

🟥

We are protesting the announced budget cuts of 1.2 billion euros on higher education in the Netherlands. This means that we have to cut about 10-20% of our budget.

Please join us in letting Eppo Bruins know that these budget cuts are unacceptable!

Hello #Fediverse @academicchatter
I need your help for a privacy-focused local-host (run offline from my computer) transcription software.

I am (luckily?) collecting more interviews than I planned and transcribing manually is becoming a giant task, so it would really be helpful to have an automatic assistance.

Any suggestions?

Tomorrow, the House of Representatives of the Netherlands will vote on the proposed budget, which includes dramatic budget cuts to higher education.

Today is the last opportunity for us to make our voices heard before tomorrow's vote. There will be protests throughout the country.

At Delft University of Technology, we will gather at 1pm in front of the Aula for a walk-out.

Morgen stemt de Tweede Kamer over de nieuwe begroting, inclusief de voorgestelde bezuinigingen op het hoger onderwijs.

Daarom zijn er vandaag demonstraties door het hele land. Dit is de laatste gelegenheid om onze stem te laten horen vóór de stemming van morgen.

Bij de TU Delft: om 13u verzamelen voor de Aula voor een walk-out tegen de aankomende Eppocalyps.

When I started my pre-Master in Computer Science, I had no experience with programming, command lines, git, Linux, ssh, ...

The pre-Master consisted of Bachelor-level courses from all three Bachelor years. Hence, from day 1, I had to be able to program at the level of a 3rd year Bachelor student, in multiple programming languages.

Unsurprisingly, this was a steep learning curve for me. Being surrounded by people who had been writing code since they were 8 years old contributed massively to my sense of insecurity and anxiety. Being surrounded by mostly men, who in some cases really felt the need to put me in my place whenever I showed any sign of competence, really didn't help me feel better.

This has kinda stayed with me. Even though I sometimes encountered people who were way more clumsy than I was in working with these tools, I still felt massive imposter syndrome.

Just now, a software developer sat next to me as I typed commands into my terminal. Afterwards, he remarked that I clearly know my way around the command line.

I wouldn't say that I'm healed now, but this for sure felt like a win.

"The real deficit that workers from lower social-class origins suffer in school is not intellectual but cultural: They know less than those from higher class origins about what the pathways to education are and how to make the most of them. Evidence from elite colleges indicates that cultural capital matters more than financial capital in predicting which students will succeed."

If you had to read a #CaseStudy on how academics (including #DoctoralWriters and #Supervisors) are actually using #ArtificialIntelligence writing tools, what would you like the case study to cover?

Asking as part of ongoing research.

The whole #AI thing is a moving target dictated by non-educational imperatives, so, I'm trying to design a case study that is, to some extent, future-proof.

I actually asked about the role that luck plays in an industry career vs an academic career. Prof. Hoda corrected me, and said that it was more appropriate to talk about "opportunities" than luck. I think she has a point there.

Still, I feel like part of our success comes down to luck, and particularly the part of being born with a certain gender/ethnicity/neurotype/(dis)ability/citizenship/etc.

#WomenInTech #WomenInComputing #WomenInSTEM #DEI #AcademicChatter #AcademicMastodon

Anyway: what I like about prof. Hoda's point is that academia can be a bit of an ivory tower bubble, and "real" questions from industry can really ground, guide and inform your research.

#WomenInTech #WomenInComputing #WomenInSTEM #AcademicChatter #AcademicMastodon #FSE2022 #ESEC2022

In almost each talk, the speaker reflects on what they like to do. I'm both surprised and relieved that none of them mention their actual field.

Prof. Rubin likes writing papers.
Prof. Chechik likes talking with and learning from others.
Prof. Suhendra likes creating good presentations.

#WomenInTech #WomenInComputing #WomenInSTEM #Career #AcademicChatter #AcademicMastodon

I love the title of the next talk: SE Career as a Function of Your Degree and Personality, by prof. Vivy Suhendra.

"CS is developing so fast, that what we study is less important than the skills you learn while you study it. However, there is overlap between what you learn in undergraduate studies and what we'll eventually do at work."

#WomenInTech #FSE2022 #FESE2022 #WomenInComputing #WomenInSTEM #AcademicMastodon #AcademicChatter

Prof. Chechik talked about the differences between academic research and industry research. She gave some examples of times where she collaborated with industry, while still being able to do academic research.

I loved her outlook on supervision. Her research directions are in large part informed by the curiosity of her students.

I'm (unexpectedly) going to get to talk to grad students about work life balance tomorrow. I am deeply dedicated to maintaining said balance. But I'd love to hear ideas, resources, strategies that you've found helpful in achieving your own version of academic work/life balance!
