Завтра выступаю на вебинаре Инфра-М о том, какие теперь нужны учебники для среднего профессионального образования. В правильном контексте направления действия сами исправляются. Благодарен коллегам, что дали повод подумать о том, чем разные уровни образования различаются и чем различается чтение.

You’d think that, in the full knowledge that the business model is harmful and created incentives that generate harm, you’d try to then change, not perpetuate it, right?

All my notes from #WILU24📚 have "AI²" all over them, shorthand for "Academic Integrity and Artificial Intelligence" as a bundled concept. This should catch on, I think!

It's amazing we went from “We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard.” to "Let our dumb as shit wrong answer machines help you fail your homework and learn nothing for the zero effort" in just fifty years.

In an hour will speak about CREDIT taxonomy, AI-literacy and our efforts to explain what does it mean to be an author. I have big issues with first year bachelors. They don't understand what they are doing when they are writing. And for the first time in history theybdo can NOT write themselves. Ah!

Today had a small but joyful meeting with secondary school children. Talked about fun and importance of reading and how they can read more and better by themselves in reading clubs. Three cities and one village were present. I hope this is just a start.

Totally agree.

New from me: I wrote about how search algorithms have created a web full of content and words for Google, not humans. We made a fake lizard website to show you what has happened over 25 yrs.

Today a short course on GenAI and open knowledge for public and school librarians will come to an end. We will meet it Tyumen regional scientific library for questions and feedback. Wondering what is the main takeaway for audience.

Today I will talk in School of Education of Higher School of Economics (Moscow, Russia) about practice of using generative AI in education. Our part is about analytical/critical reading and how it could be improved in universities. We'll provide concrete advice, not ideas what AI will change all.

Today bachelors of bio-tech made a great presentation for students of other departments about their student lab where they build open hardware for research. I am happy that they met in our library and willing to help them find partners in Tyumen and abroad. Vets and medicine students are welcome.

My team will start an introductory course on information literacy for librarians of Tyumen region tomorrow. I hope that we can bring them the feeling that almost everything they need is at their fingertips. Never easy to speak to public librarians when you are from academy, but we'll try our best.

Very concrete analysis, but it happened at summer. I wonder if it is relevant for today. Technology is such a mess.

Today is a day when it is -34 C and is getting colder. I planned in the evening a small talk and master class on search of open access materials. If at least one student and university employee comes, then I will believe in open access more than ever.

Totally agree. We need experiments but before we need spaces for experiments. It's not easy to work with many resources and services we already have. Who will invest time and effort to imaginary advances?
#UKSGforum2023 Lingstadt: Discovery systems need a huge rethink in the era of AI; we need to move beyond list-making and find ways to provide more mapping/visulaizations for discover resources/& provide skills & literacies; need to experiment more; need to create labs for both users & ourselves
