Good Climate News! Advocates celebrated Monday after a Boulder, Colorado judge rejected attempts by ExxonMobil and Suncor Energy subsidiaries to dismiss a landmark lawsuit that seeks damages for the harms the fossil fuel companies have inflicted on the climate and local communities.

We're pleased to offer a teaching guide for Youth v Gov, the documentary about the Juliana v. United States lawsuit, in which 21 young people are similarly suing the US Federal government over climate change. These resources are great classroom tools for putting climate litigation news into context.

A diverse group of adult college students feeding their homework papers into a humanoid robot in a classroom. The robot's eyes light up with each paper it receives, all done in the style of a Sunday newspaper comic strip. Over the image is the title of the post: Research Insights #11: AI and Assessment

    🤩 I have published an article (in Spanish) about how disciplinary identity can be a useful category to develop intersectional analysis within academia, especially in Latin America. It can be downloaded here:

    @edutooters @sociology @academicchatter @academicsunite

    In this article I present how disciplinary identity can be a useful category to develop intersectional analysis within academia. That is because disciplinary identity allows identifying expressions of discrimination and violence towards women professors with a different disciplinary background from the department in which they work, thus exposing the intersection of sex/gender and disciplinary identity. For this purpose, I conducted semi-structured interviews in a Colombian public university with 24 women and two men professors, and an ethnographic study with three of the women interviewees. Empirical information, submitted to content analysis, shows that the disciplinary identity and sex/gender of women professors are used to delegitimize their formation and knowledge when they join a department with a different disciplinary focus. In this way, their training and presence in the department are not only questioned, but also minimized since their contributions and achievements are not recognized, and they are segregated from decision-making administrative positions. However, women professors have obtained external recognition, allowing them to develop navigation strategies in the discriminating and violent atmosphere of their departments.

    A futuristic yet dilapidated large computer console, hard at work with intense activity, emitting smoke, and featuring a central screen displaying a large question mark. The grainy texture enhances the atmospheric sense of overwork and disrepair. Over the image is the title of the post: AI Plagiarism Considerations Part 1: AI Plagiarism Dectectors.

    Friends of mine in education want to join Mastodon, for education-focused accounts. (Yay!)

    I am looking for instances to recommend to them that:

    • Are a good home for a K12 (and sometimes K16) education account.
    • Have good moderation.
    • Stable instance, probably going to last for a while.
    • probably not a massive instance, medium-sized is better.

    I'm aware of https://mastodon.education/.

    If you have recs, please share. Thank you!

    Thank YOU for letting me know you joined the Knowledge Commons instance as a result of my above report on it. They -- @hello -- might also be glad to know this.

    Speaking of your mission of films for social activism, through our family friend in Tokyo, I happened to encounter such a group based in NYC led by a Chinese-American woman, with collaborators in Canada and here in Japan. I reviewed their most recent documentary -- available free at https://hi-lo.tv/Our-Work -- on professional photography of Japan's hostess bars, as explained at https://hcommons.social/@SteveMcCarty/112621109879323004

    Being a career academic, it was my first foray into a film review or that kind of content, but it all goes toward my challenge as a Japanologist of explaining this inscrutable culture (for once a stereotype is an understatement!). If you happen to contact Hi Lo TV, please give them my regards.
