Love this poem! I posted it recently, too. It’s so revealing and relevant. 😀

Thinking about AI refusal & resisting the heavy push for its use in academia (especially for students who may not be able to refuse), I keep returning to this fabulous, thoughtful poem from @josephfasano.bsky.social.

Heute vor 90 Jahren verstarb der britische Schriftsteller Rudyard Kipling (* 30. Dezember 1865 - † 18. Januar 1936). Er schuf sich einen Namen mit seinem im Jahre 1894 veröffentlichten und mehrfach verfilmten "Dschungelbuch". www.projekt-gutenberg.org/kipling/dbuc...

Love the Unessay, another example (like Ungrading) of UN— strategies to disrupt traditional schooling/education and place the agency in students’ hands!

Claire provides a great example of an UNessay assignment and the wonderful way for Ss to demonstrate their learning!

UNessays are just one of the many UNs— that can disrupt traditional education. 💪🏻

There’s a starter pack for ungrading and alternative assessment: bsky.app/profile/dbuc...
Based on a wonderful suggestion from @jaustinedu.bsky.social, I've created a rough Starter Pack for those involved with #ungrading & alternative #assessment.

If I forgot someone (I'm sure I have!), please forgive me & let me know if you want to be added to the list. Thanks!

For me, something that *always* appears in these articles is this idea of “repurposed” time, where the AI deals w/ the supposed laborious work of teaching—like assessment. But if we do assessment in good-faith, we’re building those very relationships lauded in these types of pro-AI articles.

Can’t stop thinking about this

The "land of the free" was never truly free—just expertly packaged.

There is some overlap between the “populist working class” and the “dirtbag uncle cohort,” but DBUC would have us believe that Venn Diagram is a circle

I shared this post in my AI-Refusal presentation today. Spot on! The same FOMO phenomenon as the MOOC craze. Higher Ed throws money at the first shiny tech object that crosses its path. bsky.app/profile/dbuc...
"The university of everywhere" was the vision attached to MOOCs, a very similar prediction which had some suggesting that higher ed would shrink to something like 50 institutions. That didn't happen, and the reason that didn't happen is the same as to why this kind of AI U. won't happen.

Can anyone explain the fascination that #OER and #OpenPedagogy folks have w/ Generative AI tools? How does an entire academic community of creators standing on the Creative Commons permissions rationalize using AI tools built on plagiarized copyrighted content stolen from authors w/o their consent?
