‘Al could end scarcity, end humanity - or boost trend growth by 0.2 percentage points’ Well that’s the best chart of the year in this @johnthornhill.bsky.social column and basically sums up where we are on.ft.com/4qMMkJd

Honoured to give the keynote at School Leaders’ Day 25 (University of Oslo) alongside the Norwegian Minister for Education.

Wonderfully knowledgeable & provocative contribution from Gustavo Fischman on global histories & practices of open access pointing out that Latin America has been a world leader in this area for decades & yet this is little recognised internationally @weraedresearch.bsky.social

I have a lot of sympathy for the challenges faced by the Irish language & Irish speakers but its presentation as a plucky insurgent language is absurd given,for example,its official status & mandatory presence in the school curriculum.Perhaps an honest review of why it isn’t used might be timely?

Really delighted to have been involved in the evaluation of this critically important programme. It shows how meaningful partnerships between employers and universities can result in genuine benefits for students and the entire community. #educationalresearch

As a big literature shows, this is quite normal, and dealing with it is not that easy either.

@dcuioe.bsky.social looking good tonight

I've been telling people for years that there is a difference between *reducing cost* and *moving cost around* - and LLMs are only doing the latter. Maybe now that there is a study, they will listen...oh, who am I kidding.

Always nice to be back in Brussels

Prof Margarita Markoviti reminds us that a key foundation of the @scirearly.bsky.social project was the understanding that we needed to shift the focus from why children struggle to how schools succeed . #educationalresearch

Delighted to be at the European Parliament to present the results of the extraordinary @scirearly.bsky.social project which seeks to understand & address early school leaving & underachievement in education. A wonderful end to a wonderful project #educationalresearch

Great to see such a positive story about my alma mater www.irishtimes.com/ireland/educ... #educationalresearch

Aggghhhhhh, teacher on @rteone.rte.ie discussing the '7 different learning styles' and the necessity to address all of them. I think learning styles is the rhodedendron of fake educational theories - once it takes root, it is virtually impossible to eradicate #educationalresearch

Horrifying and a warning that the owners of social media sites really don't really have a moral compass. Depressingly, the simple joy of sharing return-to-school photos with family and friends will now have to be a thing of the past. www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

Just gently again reminding anyone newly interested in critical social science and humanities research on AI in education that the resources for your lit review are available from education researchers to be built upon - a partial but still long and updating selection going back a while ⬇️
