Probs should rephrase this for my syllabus? 🤔 #AI #highered
Screenshot of word.doc: 	This class is a generative AI-free space. Let’s make our own mistakes and learn from them rather than have a machine (which is draining our resources to infringe on copyright, regurgitate biases, and make billionaires richer) do them for us, while we only imitate learning.

whether "estimating" undermines the paper's conclusions ? 🤷‍♀️ (It might undermine their argument about the assumed superior objectivity of their approach.)
My issue was with the simplification of "numbers = science," "everything else = speculation"–is *that* necessary for the paper's conclusions?

teachers!

excited to share a new website at this late date of Aug 15 to try to help us collectively prepare for back to school in the interpretative humanities classroom assaulted by the AI grift, so we don't have to go it alone.

take a look, share, + most importantly: CONTRIBUTE

“Gender studies as a discipline…is defined by a set of debates and problematics.” In this 10-Minute Talk, Judith Butler FBA discusses gender as a field of study and its interdisciplinary contributions to research, social analysis and social movements.

welche Relativierung? Hab ich gesagt, es gibt keinen Rassismus? Oder keinen Rassismus in MV? Oder die Schüler*innen sollen sich mal nicht so haben? Nichts davon.
Ich glaube nur nicht, dass man Rassismuss sinnvoll begegnet, wenn man Fakten falsch oder missverständlich darstellt.

Macht der Hinweis auf einen anderen Vorfall von vor einem Jahr in einer anderen Stadt die hier konkret kritisierte Beschreibung korrekter?

"Ostsee lieber meiden," wenn die rassistischen Anfeindungen von aus Brandenburg angereisten Klassen ausgingen und mit Greifswald als Ort gar nichts zu tun hatten?
Für alle, die den Artikel nicht lesen, wäre eine korrekte Einordnung/Zusammenfassung hilfreich

darüber hinaus haben sie ihre Entwürfe gegenseitig peer-reviewed, die Gesamtwebsite gestaltet und Überblickstexte geschrieben.
Great team work combined with original research --> super happy teacer

basierend auf #TownTopics (1. Klatschmagazin der USA), haben sie eigene Themen recherchiert - #mentalhealth, #WWI, #fashion, #suffragettes, #advertising, #etiquette etc; Texte editiert; interaktive Komponenten designed, die das historische Thema für interessierte Öffentlichkeit zugänglich machen
