How can the Hepler-Leavitt Model of Project-Based Learning be integrated into an intervention framework for improving search behaviors among undergraduate students at two-year institutions... through SIFT instruction?

This is the specialized (for AI training) model/process for Project-Based Learning that Cathy Leavitt and I designed for use in the NATO-AECT D&D Competition. This can be generalizable if one replaces the header with "Project-Based Learning' and replaces "LLM" with "technology," or just removes it.

"When I read 'delve' in yet another paper a student has submitted this semester:"

Ooh, you know, you really need to stop saying that.

Instruction is the transmission of information from one person to another, without the constraint, real or implied, of a school-like structure or a generational difference. Instruction happens in professional development, workforce training, etc. #edutech

Just this week, someone said that my email announcements for a course were "an example of AI gone wrong," as though I hadn't spent my precious time creating them lol

TOMORROW is "Research and AI" 2025, with a new section on "Deep Research" and its "reasoning" aspects. Come learn about how to use AI for research (which, to be clear, includes thoroughly assessing EVERYTHING it gives you), and how capabilities and features of AI can enhance and hinder researchers.

One more day (24 hours exactly!) until the "Creating an Ethical AI Framework" webinar!

www.library20.com/creating-an-...

I hope that we all have a productive and engaging conversation about the ethical issues surrounding AI and how we can respond to them in our practice!

The horrors never cease...

NEVER give a frontier model your child's medical data! This is a fascinating use case but very susceptible to all kinds of problems.

An excellent use case for #BoodleBox. But really, just ask a medical professional familiar with your patient's case.

Wagner isn't even a good composer for a CD like that.

In learning how to play piano, either through music theory or through learning a piece to a higher level of mastery, a pianist or musician of any kind typically internalizes the chord progressions, dynamics, and similarities to other pieces.

Some pictures from an LI thread started by Ben Torben-Nielsen and edited in a comment by Johan Cedmar-Brandstedt.

Ben was saying that "bias in AI tools comes from the biases in the data that was used to train it."

Johan was saying that "bias in AI tools comes from the tool providers themselves."
