Can an LLM-based teaching assistant increase teaching presence? In our new @LearningAtScale paper, we present an experimental study of the effect a virtual teaching assistant has on student perceptions of teaching, social, and cognitive presence. 1/8 #EdTech #generativeAI #LLMs

The social presence effect was a surprise though! It opens up questions about why Jill Watson has this effect and whether the effect leads to other benefits down the line. 7/8

PhD position in my lab to do science-of-science with me. We want to quantify rigor (and how our upcoming c4r center improves it). Prior experience with NLP and science of science necessary. DM me. I am trying hard to keep my group small (shrink it); but this is very important.

How do you go from an idea to an abstract? Ever seen a candid, unscripted video of how that could go? Watch as @j6m8 and I bring a neuroscience idea to @KordingLab and turn it into an abstract! 🔥See the magic happen on video!🔥 youtube.com/watch?v=ecp4ZnBT…
