Here's the paper - the abstract suggests that students who outsource their homework to AI later do worse on exams (which makes sense!) papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....

SPONSORED SEATS AVAILABLE I have 3 gifted seats for the Syllabus Workshop (2 PhD student, 1 new faculty member) this summer. 12 weeks guided backwards design experience to create or substantially revise a US or Canadian style syllabus. Gentle, paced approach prevents an end-of-summer scramble.

'it is the very nature of that struggle that builds durable understanding.. students grow intellectually through doing the work of drafting, revising, failing, trying again, grappling with confusion and revising..This is the work of learning how to learn' theconversation.com/the-greatest...

The greatest risk of AI in higher education isn’t cheating – it’s the erosion of learning itself

Automating knowledge production and teaching weakens the ecosystem of students and scholars that sustains universities, raising existential questions about their mission.

Chart of cumulative protests reported from Jan 22 - Feb 28, 2017 vs 2025:

Erica Chenoweth@chenoweth.bsky.social · 2y ago

@djpressman.bsky.social, Soha Hammam, and I draw on our research through the Crowd Counting Consortium to show that there is far more protest happening in the US than is commonly understood, and that the shift to economic noncooperation shows powerful potential for future collective action.

credible reports of Istanbul mayor @ekrem-imamoglu.bsky.social being arrested at the moment, in early hours of Wednesday in Turkey. another sad twist in Turkish politics.
