I pitched our vision for Moxie (Academic Insight Lab) today with the hope of being awarded the NC IDEA 2024 Seed ($50K) Grant. 🎉 Kimberly Pace Becker, Ph.D. and I are passionate about the potential for #GenAI to democratize education, and we are starting in the graduate education space. 🎓 I love this quote from a recent opinion piece by Tony Wan, which perfectly captures our stance on how AI can assist teachers and students: "Here’s one way AI can assist writing instruction: 𝑺𝒉𝒐𝒓𝒕𝒆𝒏𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒂𝒎𝒐𝒖𝒏𝒕 𝒐𝒇 𝒕𝒊𝒎𝒆 𝒊𝒕 𝒕𝒂𝒌𝒆𝒔 𝒇𝒐𝒓 𝒕𝒆𝒂𝒄𝒉𝒆𝒓𝒔 𝒕𝒐 𝒈𝒊𝒗𝒆 𝒇𝒆𝒆𝒅𝒃𝒂𝒄𝒌 𝒕𝒉𝒓𝒐𝒖𝒈𝒉𝒐𝒖𝒕 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒘𝒓𝒊𝒕𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒑𝒓𝒐𝒄𝒆𝒔𝒔 — 𝒑𝒍𝒂𝒏𝒏𝒊𝒏𝒈, 𝒅𝒓𝒂𝒇𝒕𝒊𝒏𝒈, 𝒓𝒆𝒗𝒊𝒔𝒊𝒏𝒈, 𝒆𝒅𝒊𝒕𝒊𝒏𝒈, 𝒑𝒖𝒃𝒍𝒊𝒔𝒉𝒊𝒏𝒈 — so that students no longer have to wait days or weeks before knowing whether they’re on the right track. Some tools allow teachers to set a rubric that guides the grades and feedback delivered by AI. The idea is that AI can handle some basic feedback — on grammar, syntax, diction — so that teachers can focus on other important areas."

A consistent theme that typically pops up when trying to make research-practitioner partnerships smoother and more collaborative is the need for a common language to communicate needs and brainstorm solutions.   Research often times can be misconstrued as something befuddling (Gaelic perhaps?) or a terrible allocation of investment. It really doesn’t have to be! Link in the comments to catch and learn from Dr. Sundar as she breaks down what research really is, FYI. You just might catch her love for research, even if its not gaelic. #research #edtech #educationaltechnology #edtechtartups #k12

My first exposure to #systemsthinking was with Peter Senge’s '#TheFifthDiscipline' during my early days in organisation consulting. Senge’s insights were transformative, teaching me two critical lessons: 🌍#System: A system is a set of variables interacting over time under certain rules that establish patterns of behaviour. 🔄#Systemschange, then, is about shifting the conditions that sustain problems in these systems Upon my transition into the philanthropic sector 4 years ago, through my peers, I began to witness the growing importance of embracing #ecosystemlevelshift, a shift that is not only significant but also urgent for our the various issues that humanity is facing. So, to achieve meaningful impact, we must take action at three distinct levels, each crucial to our collective success. 🏗️ #StructuralChanges: Explicit changes in policies, practices, and resources that redefine the framework within which we operate. 🤝 #RelationalChanges: Semi-explicit shifts that enhance how entities within the system relate and cooperate towards mutual goals. 🧠 #TransformativeChanges: Implicit shifts in the mental models that shape stakeholders' perceptions and actions. From our analysis on better ways towards #ecosystemshift, I think there are two roles we can particularly play to achieve the above: #TheSystemsMapper: To identify and map out the elements and interactions within the system, clarifying where impactful interventions can occur. #TheCommunicator and #Orchestrator: Helping stakeholders distil complex information and transforming how they perceive and act upon data. What role have you been playing towards ecosystem shift and development? What are the effective tools for systems mapping that others are using? What are cases of ecosystem transformation you're facilitated? Please DM me would love to learn from your experience. #systemschange #ecosystemdevelopment #ecosystemmapping Credits: conditions of system change by John Kania and Mark Kramer Pic: Alyna Grubnayk
