Full recording of NORRAG-TISS-Western University panel on 'Private Sector Approaches to Education'.
I speak about the equity issues in the Global South, and a tendency to view education as a technical enterprise. I argue education is a complex and political process and systems are value-laden, requiring a critical examination of supposed resource scarcity and the roles of public and private actors.
The EU's common market is based on four freedoms: free movement of goods, services, labour and capital. We're still lacking the free movement of knowledge.
The next mandate should bring some news on the “Fifth Freedom”.
In this regard, this webinar by Knowledge Rights 21:
«Scientific Innovation and Growth—What should the EU do in its 2024-29 mandate to support research?»
"You know, SOMEONE should do a study on how people [behavior or interaction that has already been intensely scrutinized in dozens of studies with thousands of subjects for decades].
"My theory is [simplistic interpretation that was debunked in the 1960s]!
"Therefore we should all try to [personal or social intervention that was unsuccessfully implemented from 1947 to 1977 until it was finally shown to be useless and/or harmful]!"
After atoms, it's now the turn of molecules to form a Bose–Einstein condensate.
"Physicists have succeeded in cooling down molecules so much that hundreds of them lock in step, making a single gigantic quantum state. These systems could be used to explore exotic physics, such as by creating solid materials that can flow without resistance, or could form the basis of a new kind of quantum computer."
With #LLM applications more abundant, have researchers been using them to assist their writing? We know they have when writing peer reviews [1], but how about doing so in writing their published papers?
Liang et al comes back to answer this question in [3]. They applied the same corpus-based methodology proposed in [2] on 950k papers published between 2020 to 2024, and the answer is a resounding YES, esp. in CS (up to 17.5%) (screenshot 1).
