Teaching

Writing about how AI is affecting education today, Simon Wilson writes

The worst part is that the evaluation loop is measured in multiple years! If you start trying some new education mechanism today you won’t get a robust idea of how well it works until your current cohort graduate in 3-6 years time. Students effectively all become guinea pigs for untested new ways of learning and teaching.

Yeah!

This is obvious, but I think it is something we that would be good to think about, in a serious way, more regularly and more rigorously than I do.
