Was looking into what Cognitive Scientists mean by ‘domain-general’ cognition, and then hit upon this. This is definitely NOT how we use that term.

Tip: read the last sentence to understand what went wrong here.

Sigh.

Highly recommend this insightful paper exploring the deep connections between the histories of artificial intelligence and education. A fascinating read for anyone interested in the evolution of technology in learning! doi.org/10.1007/s405...
The Intertwined Histories of Artificial Intelligence and Education - International Journal of Artificial Intelligence in Education
In this paper, I argue that the fields of artificial intelligence (AI) and education have been deeply intertwined since the early days of AI. Specifically, I show that many of the early pioneers of AI...

How systematic are systematic literature searches 🔍 ? ERIC: solid (watch those quotation marks!). PsycINFO via platforms ≠ direct searches. Web of Science: Highly variable results. Reporting full search hits is necessary. Read more about our little study here: doi.org/10.33683/did...

Excited to share findings from a collaborative, long-term effort on testing the idea of a spiral curriculum (with a team from ETHZ, PH-FHNW, and PHSZ)! 🪢 Early physics instruction in elementary school shows promise, helping students slightly more in advanced physics later on. doi.org/10.1037/edu0...

Are LLMs like ChatGPT hallucinating? Hicks, Humphries, and Slater argue that "falsehoods, and the overall activity of large language models, is better understood as bullshit". Here's the paper: link.springer.com/article/10.1...

Recently, there has been considerable interest in large language models: machine learning systems which produce human-like text and dialogue. Applications of these systems have been plagued by persist...

New publication! A. Lichtenberger @ethzurich.bsky.social , T. Kokkonen (Turku University) and I compared two sequences of representations for learning advanced physics: concreteness fading vs. simultaneous presentation. Here you can read the results of our study: doi.org/10.1002/tea....
Learning with multiple external representations in physics: Concreteness fading versus simultaneous presentation
Multiple external representations (MERs) are useful for teaching complex content in science education. An open question is whether there is an especially effective way to sequence MERs. On the one ha....

In response to Florida's social media ban for young people & Haidt's new book, @margaritap.bsky.social and I wrote a blog post summarizing the scientific evidence of social media bans. We also discuss initiatives that would actually tackle youth mental health issues.
