We have a new pre-print out! I have been spending a long time thinking about how to scale up qualitative data analysis. In this paper, we introduce a method I call EECS - extract, embed, cluster, and summarize. Check it out! arxiv.org/abs/2403.11984

Happy to be able to share work with Yasir - one of my grad student’s about to defend soon! - and @profjennicase comparing results from using generative AI in qualitative research with traditional approaches! Preprint: papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.…

Our new pre-print on using generative AI (e.g., GPT-4) and large language models for education research is out! In it we demonstrate how one can use these models to identify themes in large-scale qualitative data arxiv.org/abs/2305.18125

Time for the biennial return to Twitter

I wonder what the ratio is of 'reticent users questioning whether each tweet is really worth typing' to 'unflinching users who assume every tweet is obviously worth typing'.

After a three-year hiatus, I'm back. This feels like a "tree in the forest with nobody around to hear it" kind of moment.

Tweets emanate from birds. Felicitously, my last name is Katz. In homage to heritage and heresy, do my posts constitute a "meow"?
