The desire for people to be in a space to answer the big questions and, yet, we as a society are threatening/eliminating the very institutions that make this type of engagement possible….🤔

Mimetic isomorphism, do your thing

Here’s a random thought: How many just willfully ‘trust’ A.I. models without questioning how it was trained, yet DEMAND every educator to justify EVERY SINGLE decision we make in pedagogy, assessment, or general practice? #EducationSky #HigherEdSky

Sobering but a reflection of many convos I've had in the last year:

"I used to joke with colleagues that higher education is besieged on two fronts: by fascists on one side and neoliberals on the other. As we look ahead to a second Trump administration, these two threads appear ready to converge."
