AI, or the fallout from AI
AI isn’t being developed to help learning & teaching, it’s for business & the military. Education will be picking up the bits that it thinks can help.
Some educators see the Business benefits, some the Conflict benefits, not all will see pedagogic benefits

Number of foreign students has fluctuated… many reasons: Covid, changes in government policy wrt visas etc etc
Whether this ever affected teaching or assessment policy I’m not sure…

Retired and out of it all now…
But I cynically expect that going online will have enabled a fair amount of enshittification to take place.
It can be a transformative change, but there will always be a way to mess it up for people.

For most HE in the last 5 years it’s being forced online (an unexpected benefit of Covid ?)…
For the OU in the last 25 years it was getting to grips with working online…
So many benefits for both groups in going online in teaching and in learning and, when handled well, in assessment

At that age (OK, 60 years ago) I remember avidly reading the historical fantasy novels by Henry Treece and Geoffrey Trease, 2 English authors who between them wrote a LOT of books, some still available on Amazon
Covered a lot of history… Vikings, Romans, Crusades, Romanian revolution
I loved them

An AI moderator that would sit within the VLE/chatroom and automatically do things like respond intelligently to student’s posts, keep discussions going, feed in new ideas, chivvy people to take part… also do Tests and Feedback and Marking (with tutor oversight obviously!)

Would presume tools provided for use by students in their studies, ie the VLE if that still a thing, is worth knowing all about…
Tools for lesson development or research use would hope institution would provide (wishful thinking?) Investment…? As much as it takes to solve my problems.

So, so many…! But I was using back in the ‘70s. SNOBOL was one I loved.
More recently I was sorry when NUDIST died and was resurrected as NVivo.
Several others at that time: CONC for concatenation and text analysis sadly missed.
And SPSS just got SO big…

I could contain my jealousy until you panned around to the huge Chicago Press (what I knew as an Albion press because we had one at school) - oh to pull some prints on that!
At school we were very influenced by the work and prints of Michael Rothenstein - if you can ink it you can print it!
