Estelle Platini<p>"The pedagogical value of a writing assignment doesn’t lie in the tangible product of the work — the paper that gets handed in at the assignment’s end. It lies in the work itself: the critical reading of source materials, the synthesis of evidence and ideas, the formulation of a thesis and an argument, and the expression of thought in a coherent piece of writing. The paper is a proxy that the instructor uses to evaluate the success of the work the student has done — the work of learning. Once graded and returned to the student, the paper can be thrown away."</p><p>by Nicholas Carr: <a href="https://www.newcartographies.com/p/the-myth-of-automated-learning" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">newcartographies.com/p/the-myt</span><span class="invisible">h-of-automated-learning</span></a> via <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@riotnrrd" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>riotnrrd</span></a></span> </p><p><a href="https://techhub.social/tags/education" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>education</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/AIRisks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AIRisks</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/LLM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LLM</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/chatbots" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>chatbots</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/highSchool" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>highSchool</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/university" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>university</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/higherEd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>higherEd</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/college" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>college</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/teaching" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>teaching</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/learning" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>learning</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/merit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>merit</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/personalDevelopment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>personalDevelopment</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/school" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>school</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/assignments" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>assignments</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/assessments" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>assessments</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/imagination" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>imagination</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/performance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>performance</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/ranking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ranking</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/training" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>training</span></a></p>
