"CAIL is as an umbrella for all the prerequisite knowledge required to have an expert-level critical perspective, such as to tell apart nonsense hype from true theoretical computer scientific claims"

Ett förslag till lösning: Antal publikationer och publikationslista får inte längre inkluderas i ansökningar om anställningar, meriteringar eller anslag. Ange enbart de 3 publikationer som tydligast visar ditt bidrag till fältet. Då försvinner incitamentet till artikelfabrikerna.

Känner du någon doktorand inom pedagogik/didaktik som letar efter en kurs i kvantitativ metod? Vi ger i höst en kurs på avancerad nivå i kvantitativ metod. Kursen passar extra bra för den som har begränsade – eller inga – förkunskaper, men som ändå vill förstå kvantitativ metod på avancerad nivå.

Det är kanske läge för Sverige och Europa att satsa på universitetssektorn just nu. Alltid obehagligt att prata i egen sak men det framstår som guldläge.
I completely missed that Republicans introduced a bill to increase the endowment tax from 1.4% to 21%. If passed, Harvard would go from paying ~$35m to $525m/yr in federal taxes (that’s 8.2% of its current operating expenses)

Republicans have cancelled the heuristics-and-biases program.
7. The ban is so sweeping that "confirmation bias" — the tendency of people "to accept or notice information if it appears to support what they already believe or expect" — is included, even though it has nothing to do with race or gender.
