Excited for my 1st time at #AERA as an official PhD! Find me & @nataliebmilman at 10:50am today talking feminist pedagogy with a panel of amazing online education researchers. #AERA24
Also, this week's announcements includes our location for our #AERA23 Civics of Tech Meet-up. If you're in Chicago, join us at D4 Irish Pub & Cafe (345 E Ohio St, Chicago, IL 60611, USA) on Friday, April 14th from 5-7pm CST. Check back here for updates. See you there!

Attention #secondary#STEM teachers: Have time to spare? Of course not, but I'd be thankful for 20-30 minutes of your time for a virtual simulation on using algorithmic advice in decisions. Sign up to participate in this dissertation research at bit.ly/Simulation_PreSurvey
In a new report, @annelies_goger, @JessaEdTech, @nataliebmilman & others consider how education technologies are creating new opportunities & challenges in achieving #SDG4.

In this Q&A, @gwGSEHD Prof. @nataliebmilman explains why it’s important to view educational technology through a more critical lens, what it will take to do that, and the role of teacher preparation programs in using technology more thoughtfully in schools.
Had a wonderful time sharing some takeaways from my case study research on the innovative work of @IUAMicroCreds. Thanks for allowing me to join the conversation @BrookingsGlobal!
Our last panel of the day bringing focus to real-life examples of verifiable credentials, blockchain for education, skills-based employment, and micro-credentials domestic and abroad, with reps from @LEGOfoundation@USCCFoundation@gwGSEHD. #WorkforceDevelopment
These are elementary school children who woke up this morning. Who ate their favorite cereal. Who tied their shoes in double knots. Who laughed with friends on the bus. Now more than a dozen are dead. This isn’t normal. It doesn’t have to be this way. It can’t keep being this way
I love this. I also wonder if there's a middle ground: use the term "AI" AND define what you mean as precisely as possible so readers build up a critical understanding of what the term could mean when they inevitably encounter it elsewhere.
The Center on Privacy & Technology at Georgetown Law is removing “artificial intelligence,” “AI,” and “machine learning” from its institutional vocabulary. Read why in this piece from its Executive Director, Emily Tucker: techpolicy.press/artifice-an…

I’m not jumping the Twitter-ship (currently) but what other digital spaces exist (& are good) for academic collaboration/networking/learning/research sharing? I’m interested in spaces that are multi- or inter-disciplinary. Something other than LinkedIn? #AcademicTwitter
Her key questions are so good: “What patterns in the training data will lead the systems to replicate and perpetuate past harms against marginalized groups? What will happen to people subjected to the system’s decisions, if the system operators believe them to be accurate?” (1/2)
“Who benefits from pushing these decisions off to a supposedly objective computer? How would this system further concentrate power and what systems of governance should we demand to oppose that?” EdTech & learning analytics can benefit from these discussions as well. (2/2).
Beyond excited to share our #FAccT2022 paper "Sensible AI: Re-imagining Interpretability and Explainability using Sensemaking Theory" arxiv.org/abs/2205.05057
Building on incredible recent work in this space, this paper is about *who* interpretability and XAI are intended for. 🧵
