When I say … microlearning - PMC - 5 views

  • One of the barriers to the application of microlearning has been the lack of a consistent clear operational definition to guide instructors
  • Microlearning is short.
  • Microlearning focuses on a single learning objective.
  • ...4 more annotations...
  • Microlearning resources are most commonly and effectively delivered via digital technology (but microlearning is not defined by technology).
  • Microlearning can be achieved on the go when the learner wants it or needs it.
  • The Internet‐connected smartphone is a major driver of microlearning because it provides access to learning on the go (i.e. mobile learning) and is nearly always accessible to most people.
  • Microlearning on Web 2.0 applications also offers the benefit of a collaborative learning space.

Can you copyright the content you make with generative AI? | Descript - 6 views

  • because you can’t predict exactly what a generative AI tool will create, you can’t copyright it.
  • The Copyright Office equated the text prompts to telling an artist about an idea you have for a painting, then trying to copyright the work after they paint it.
  • That makes sense if all you provided the artist was ideas, because ideas are not protectable and the painter did the creative work that gives them “authorship,”
  • ...9 more annotations...
  • Lisa says she would’ve expected the Copyright Office to focus more on the nature of the inputs
  • how much human involvement does a creator have to exert over a machine to claim ownership of its output? 
  • This isn’t the first time the legal system has wrestled with that question. It first came up when cameras were invented; the argument then was that you couldn’t protect a photograph as your own, since the machine was the one capturing the image.
  • The Copyright Office, surprisingly, introduced this predictability standard instead.
  • He used the amusing analogy of Jackson Pollock, who made his art by flinging paint around and seeing what happened; nobody questioned his ability to copyright those works.
  • But in a more salient point for creators, the lawyer argued that the Copyright Office was “incorrectly focusing on the output of the tool rather than the input from the human.”
  • the best thing you can do is to be sure you’re employing as much human creativity in the process as possible.
  • This might mean writing prompts with as much detail as possible
  • A final note: as Lisa points out, the Copyright Office did indicate that if someone sufficiently modifies generated output, that could be protectable. So, If you’re using generative AI as a starting point — e.g., using ChatGPT to create a rough draft and then re-writing it for your own voice — be sure you document the changes you made before you try to file for copyright protection, and then explain it in the application.

The Seven Deadly Sins Of Digital Badging In Education - 7 views

  • An academic institution’s digital badging initiative is getting off the ground and students are “earning” badges, or micro-credentials, but are they actually providing value to the student toward his or her future career?
  • There is a fundamental disconnect with what is being taught in the classroom and what one really needs to know to be a contributing member of the modern workforce--especially in the tech industry.

    I included some notes in the document; I'll be happy to have your thoughts!

    Hi Brett, I think since you're a member of the group and you click on the resource from the group page, you should see the annotations and the sticky notes. I annotated the title and the beginning of the document, and I added 2 notes, one on the title and one one Parth Detroja's quote. Let me know if you can see them!
