Gust MEES's insight:

4. Artificial stupidity. How can we guard against mistakes?

Intelligence comes from learning, whether you’re human or machine. Systems usually have a training phase in which they "learn" to detect the right patterns and act according to their input. Once a system is fully trained, it can then go into test phase, where it is hit with more examples and we see how it performs.

Obviously, the training phase cannot cover all possible examples that a system may deal with in the real world. These systems can be fooled in ways that humans wouldn't be. For example, random dot patterns can lead a machine to “see” things that aren’t there. If we rely on AI to bring us into a new world of labour, security and efficiency, we need to ensure that the machine performs as planned, and that people can’t overpower it to use it for their own ends.

This article effected me in the way of how I learn best. I am an audible learner but i also like to have a hard book to flip the pages of and look back on, instead of having to switch screens . Part of me has an aversion to reading long articles/stories/content online because in a textbook, i can use post-it notes, fold over pages, and flip back and forth easily. It is great that they are trying to make everything uniform with teachers and students, but not everyone learns the same or enjoys staring at a screen for countless hours in order to finish their homework. The internet is also a huge distraction.

With some 200 indicators drawing on the latest internationally comparable data, the 2017 edition of the OECD Science, Technology and Industry (STI) Scoreboard shows how the digital transformation affects science, innovation, the economy, and the way people work and live.

It aims to help governments design more effective science, innovation and industry policies in the fast-changing digital era.

The STI Scoreboard is published every other year, alternately with the OECD Science, Technology and Innovation Outlook.

Man kann es Murmelbahn nennen oder auch Rube-Goldberg-Maschine – ganz egal: Was der YouTuber namens Kaplamino gebaut hat, ist schön anzuschauen und nutzt einige physikalische Effekte souverän aus.

Was der YouTube-Nutzer mit dem Pseudonym Kaplamino auf einer offenbar schräggestellten Holzplatte mit Kirschbaumfurnier angeordnet hat, fängt erst einmal an wie eine simple Murmelbahn, die vielleicht noch Dreijährigen die Kinnlade herunterfallen lässt: Eine Glasmurmel folgt der Bahn, die ihr von ein paar Holzleisten-Stückchen vorgegeben wird. Aber was sich dann im Lauf von rund vier Minuten auf insgesamt 16 Bildausschnitten abspielt, fasziniert auch Erwachsene: Wechselweise Murmeln und Stahlkugeln absolvieren einen vertrackten Parcours und lösen ausgeklügelte Mechanismen aus, bei dem Schaschlikspieße Impulse übertragen und pendelnde Papierstückchen einzelne Kugeln auf die richtige Bahn bringen. Auch Münzen, Dominosteine und eine Schere sind mit von der Partie.

The process of planning and making videos can offer tremendous learning opportunities for students of almost any age. Not only is the idea of telling stories with video really engaging for many kids, filmmaking is ripe with opportunities to connect to almost every academic subject area.

Chi & Ruth Wylie a cherché à caractériser les dispositifs intégrant le numérique par rapport à l’implication déclarée des apprenants.
