Just had a research plan published in Lifecycle Journal! An AI-assisted review of 10 years of research on how high-stakes tests affect students.

If you’re interested in assessment or student voices, I’d love to hear your thoughts. lifecycle-flax.fly.dev/journal/arti...

Worth checking out if you do statistical analysis in your research. statcheck.io

Just back from the annual conference of the Czech Association for History Education (ADD) in Pilsen 🇨🇿 (Sept 11–12).
Theme: Knowledge. Knowledge! Knowledge?

Just got my first paper published! 🥳 doi.org/10.14324/HER...

How Czech schools teach history:
1. 95% follow national themes
2. Textbooks shape content + order
3. Extra topics aren’t random - cluster around classic narratives

Thanks @histedresearch.bsky.social team for your very professional work!

Got a paper review that was clearly AI-generated… and not even a good one. Barely related to my work. Feeling pretty sad about it.

Got my first paper reviews back—turns out they’re not soul-crushing! How do academics celebrate a win like this? 😄

I haven’t lived through the collapse of a civilisation before

I study history so I have read the guidebooks, but they don’t quite capture the experience of being there

Analyzing Czech curricula is tough, but AI/LLMs can help. Our study used history curricula to explore:

1️⃣ Efficient data extraction
2️⃣ Clear topic division
3️⃣ Accurate historical labels

🔍 AI handled curricula well, matching human coders in organizing and labeling content.

Hey, I’m Juda Kaleta! PhD student in History Education, former teacher, now dabbling in software dev. I’ll be sharing my PhD journey, thoughts on assessing historical thinking, and how AI might change education. It's a weird mix, but isn't that the fun part?
