Remarkable to hear Braverman say multiculturalism has failed. She's a British Home Secretary descended from Goan Indians from Mauritius and Kenya, married to a Jewish husband, in a government headed by Britain's first Hindu PM. What would successful multiculturalism look like?

Utrecht University Utrecht University in the Netherlands has withdrawn itself from the World University ranking World University Rankings provided by Times Higher Education. As this has generated quite some reactions - praise, questions, some doubts, I want to provide some context. Hence a thread 🧵1/16

A 10 minute video with examples of content generated by OpenAI’s text-to-video model SORA. Not open to the public (thankfully) and while technically exciting, its also unnerving when considered in the context of its potential for disinformation and harm. youtube.com/watch?v=HK6y8D…

Student uses Grammarly which was flagged by TurnItIn AI detector so gets a 0. If she used MS Word grammar tool would outcome be the same? I've seen too many academics alow tech to govern their integrity decisions while not understanding how the tech works fox5atlanta.com/news/grammarly…

Concerning attacks on arts education in UK higher ed. Meanwhile Irish universities continue to face increasing financial pressures with an increased emphasis on the economic contribution of programmes and discipline areas. How long before it happens here? theguardian.com/education/2024…

A superb initiative by CDM academics Niamh O'Hora and Mark Shiels. CDM students from TU Dublin’s Blanchardstown campus tackled an enterprise challenge with ESB. Their mission was clear: to develop solutions aligned with ESB’s Net Zero by 2040 strategy. creativedigitalmedia.ie/creative-digit…

independent.ie/irish-news/wit… Im all for examining AI though critical lenses, but harking back to 'the good old days' before computers? "Another asked if delegates remembered a grade of typist in the public service that no longer exists because of the introduction of computers."

Spare a thought for our English friends watching hurling on BBC2 and seeing the referee with a blood injury. #Allirelandhuringfinal

rte.ie/news/ireland/2… Ireland invests less in education than any other OECD country. We are however quickly becoming world leaders in investments in bike shelters.

Of the 166 TD's in the Dail, 19 are from a teaching background, 12% of elected reps. Having attended my kids parent teacher meetings last week, its a pity more of them are not in the Dail. CEO's and billionaires aren't exactly improving our democratic freedoms of late...#teachers
