Excited for this webinar on social annotation and OER tomorrow! We have 96 registered, and it's still open. It will be recorded, and the recording will be shared.
Assigning social annotation of course readings is one way to encourage students to write in their own voices and not misuse AI. It can be a first step toward any essay that will build on the readings. It's a low-stakes setting where writing is informal conversation among peers.

I attended a meeting with Pearson reps to discuss new AI features. One is exactly that, an AI-generated snippet that summarizes every page of their own textbook. So we are expected to require students purchase the textbook so they read the snippet instead of the textbook... 🤦🏽‍♀️

Imagine using #AI to personalize your #education and interact with #textbooks. This is now becoming a reality thanks to the merging of @LibreTexts, an open education platform founded by a @UCDavis professor, and advanced AI from @SandboxAQ: youtube.com/watch?v=uGZJmP3k…

Just remember, jumping on a bison and yelling “yip yip” will not make it fly. But you will.

The ADAPT phone app will be released next month for public testing (both Android and iOS). As with the ADAPT web app, it integrates H5P, IMathAS (tech of MyOpenMath), WebWork and much more. This phone app doubles as a in-class polling system too. screenrec.com/share/XB987eA5…
