Knowledge, Learning, Community

This is the first post in a series of posts (I won't link to all ten, but I love the photo of sparrows in the last part) which together comprise an unpublished paper. Me, I would have just published one long post, not ten parts. But each to their own. The article is focused on actual teacher experiences of "three applications of machine learning in higher education: plagiarism-detection systems such as Turnitin.com, automated grading, and teacher bots, and two others, speech recognition and automated translation," based on interviews with ten academic developers. It's interesting reading, but it's hard not to treat an interview with ten people as anything other than a (not always informed) opinion article. Hint: when blogging a multi-part article, it's really important to make sure each post has links to the 'previous' and 'next' page, and perhaps to an 'index', as I do here and here.
