Can #OER be engaging?
In the last 30 days 18,000 students have interacted over 1,000,000 times with OER built with H5P.
(Interactions = click somewhere on the activity, and doesn't include things like submitting a quiz)
Based on pageviews, that's a ~68% engagement rate.

Hey #OER #CreativeCommons #OpenSource & #OpenEducation folks, how would you answer the following:
"Why not use GPL, MIT, or other licenses instead of CC? A webpage's content can't be abstracted from it's code, so it's technically all software"

Students will definitely use AI to automate note taking. This means your in-person lecture is defintely being 'sent' to some AI endpoint.
It would be much better if schools made this a part of the learner experience, no?

Students, this for you.
A real-time AI powered note taker (@StudyFetch).
Instantly get your lecture notes live during sessions.
Don't worry if you zone out, just ask the AI what the professor just said and it got your back.
The future is augmented. Links below.

If you are looking for the 'ah-ha' moment of how #Teaching will merge with #AI, well... here it is:
AI will be the 'over the shoulder' instructor for students, providing them much needed scaffolding as they learn new systems.
Teaching will become more about technical writing.
🤯 with @openai Whisper TTS GPT4V, you can just permanently share your screen with an AI and talk to it to get help on anything on screen.
a generally intelligent assistant for your digital life.
with a bit more engineering you could probably feed it extra docs and context based on the currently active tab/app.

I know the answer to this question, but I'll ask anyway:
how would you feel about ads being shown on your #OER to students? e.g. if ads were used as a way to make the OER authoring platform 100% free forever for everyone.

Madness, @sama builds a custom GPT using private knowledge in just under 4 minutes.
Then he goes on to share it.
There will be millions of GPTs.

Noticing a trend in Students using #AI to completely bypass quizzes:
Steps:
1. Download the content the quiz is based on (e.g. Modules 1-4)
2. Train one of many readily available AI engines on this content
3. Copy/paste the quiz question into the AI app
4. Get the answer from AI

Students can use free/affordable no/low-code AI chatbot engines like dante-ai.com to create an AI Cheat Engine in a few minutes.
More tech savvy students can build AI-enabled pipelines directly on their laptops/phones.

Bottom line:
1. Students will be feeding your content/IP into AI.
2. Quizzes alone are probably not enough to gauge learner comprehension.
3. You can't fix this with procotoring either.

If you teach language, in any way and especially creative writing, you should definitely think about teaching your students #TextFX:

Building interesting #AI at work: an Instructional Chatbot that aims to help educators & #InstructionalDesigners with #EdTech, Design, TechSupport. It's a conversational #chatbot and, yes, it's kind of freaky how good it is.
More on this soon.

GPT-4 is the new data scientist 🤯
With the new OpenAI code interpreter model, you just have to upload the data and provide instructions in simple english.
The model does everything from cleaning data to generating insightful visualizations on autopilot!!

300,000 textbook downloads per month is a crazy stat. Clearly demonstrates the need and efficacy of #OER.
25 Apr 2023
Data rocks! I significantly underestimated the number of PDF downloads we shared each month. Now that we are tracking them more carefully, I can see that my estimate was 10x too low. LibreTexts distributes 300,000 PDFs of #OER monthly now. Nice!

The @internetarchive is perhaps the world's most important web service for open education and research. It is under attack by publishers who are twisting copyright law to prevent a fair internet.

Don't use ChatGPT for academic research. It creates fake citations to papers that don't even exist.
Instead, use Scite Assistant — an AI-powered app designed for researchers.
It answers your questions with citations to (real) published papers.
Here's how to use it:

I've yet to review/verify the quality/accuracy of the content, but it looks really good.
And, it bears repeating: This is all AI generated interactive resources built using GPT and H5P and includes auto-generated metadata.
It took the app ~10mins to generate all of this.

@nolej_app is in the early stages. They just kicked off their beta test a few weeks ago. I'm floored by their progress and very impressed with the app so far.
