Commented on AI in education, teaching, learning
This is a study (https://tytonpartners.com/app/uploads/2023/10/GenAI-IN-HIGHER-EDUCATION-FALL-2023-UPDATE-TIME-FOR-CLASS-STUDY.pdf) on the use of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) writing tools in higher education. The study finds that both faculty and students are increasingly using GenAI, with students using it for tasks like summarizing text and understanding concepts. Faculty are concerned about plagiarism and want to see how students are using GenAI. There is disagreement about the overall impact of GenAI on learning, with students being more positive about it. Overall, GenAI use is on the rise in higher education, and both faculty and students need to adapt to this new reality.

The AD Scientific Index (https://www.adscientificindex.com/highly-cited-researcher/) provides a ranking of highly cited researchers, which is a valuable resource for recognizing the impact and influence of scientists worldwide.

Commented on World University Rankings
The University of Zurich has decided to withdraw from the Times Higher Education (THE) World University Ranking (https://www.swissinfo.ch/eng/education/university-of-zurich-quits-international-university-ranking/73693006). The institution expressed concerns that the ranking system creates "false incentives" by focusing on measurable outputs such as the number of publications, which may lead to prioritizing quantity over quality. The university also stated that such rankings do not comprehensively measure the diverse achievements in research and teaching of a university. This decision reflects a broader debate in academia about the value and impact of university rankings. What is your opinion about it?
