Na área de educação em ciências, inteligência artificial tem sido usada sem referencial ético Repetição de linguagem acrítica, apagamento da origem das ideias, reforço de vieses, preconceito e desigualdade são alguns riscos potenciais, indicam pesquisadores

Em editorial, os especialistas Nathália Azevedo e Paulo Santos alertam que a IA generativa reforça desigualdades e consome muitos recursos. Os autores defendem debate crítico sobre seu uso na pesquisa científica

I’m Still Here just won the Oscar for Best International Film.
A true story of political repression set in 1970s Brazil, it has chilling resonance in 2025 USA.
Still in theaters. This film is spectacular. Don’t miss it.

Trump and Musk are obsessed with genetics – but there’s no science behind their simplistic views | Jonathan Roberts The US right is misrepresenting science to support its racist agenda. There’s far more to it than ‘good’ or ‘bad’ genes, says genetic counsellor Jonathan Roberts

Genetic determinism is a fallacy. While genes are important, environmental, social factors, and our choices play a major role. Genetics and environment interact in complex ways—our future isn’t set by genes alone

Science is political. It wouldn't necessarily have to be partisan.

But when one party is opposed to science-based policy, scientists have a choice between saying "you're right, thoughts and prayers are probably as effective as reducing carbon emissions" or saying "fuck that."

my dear students. I don’t believe in many universal truths but here’s one:

AI’s got nothing on the writer you already are & the writer you’ll become if you keep working at it. it’s hard work but it’s worth it, I promise.

To successfully do the work of unlearning domination, a democratic educator has to cultivate a spirit of hopefulness about the capacity of individuals to change (hooks, 2003)

Great point! I've had excellent teaching partnerships lately 😊, so my focus was on research. Often, the product (e.g. papers) takes over, and the collaborative learning process—focused on exchange and growth—can get overlooked, which can limit the deeper, more enriching aspects of the collaboration

Looking for advice on how to build strong, productive partnerships in academia. What are the best ways to establish fruitful collaborations and identify potential pitfalls? Any tips or experiences would be greatly appreciated! #AcademicCollaboration #Academicsky @academic-chatter.bsky.social

We need to have deeper conversations about the care of elderly individuals. It’s essential to recognize the immense burden placed on families and their role in providing support. Balancing caregiving with personal well-being is a challenge that deserves more attention and understanding.

It was beautiful! She made history and truly deserves all the recognition for her authentic and meticulous work in this film about such an important part of Brazil's history. #DictatorshipNeverAgain Congratulations, Fernanda! Brazilians are so proud! You represented us with your genuineness! 🥹

What strategies have educators been using to reduce the use of AI in student assignments?

I’d love to hear thoughts and ideas🤞🏽

Also, any suggestions for addressing this issue in teacher training programs are very welcome 🫱🏻‍🫲🏽

Do you have a student who is a non-native English speaker #NNES ? A post-doc? A collaborator? Are you a reviewer?
It takes years to get to express yourself in a foreign language, if it ever happens
