#StudentMobility is a distinct form of mobility, where highly skilled individuals go to study in another country to enhance their #academic skills, #networks, and cultural understanding. Simultaneously, host #regions gain talent and consumer base, while sending regions get returning #expertise.
Do #expertise or reflective thinking mitigate #framingEffects?
Accountants' weren't less vulnerable to framing than students on business decisions, regardless of reflection score.
Students' reflection scores predicted *greater* framing effects?
"The most extraordinary futures often begin with the unplanned detours that happen along the way!" - Futurist Jim Carroll
Believe in serendipity and happenstance, because you never know what might happen! That's because your greatest expertise may not be where you first planted your flag, but where curiosity led you to explore!
That's how ChatGPT summarized a profile article about me that just came out. And it's wonderful wisdom that very much seems to match my mindset!
The article, "The Accidental Oracle," appears in the spring issue of Pivot Magazine, which goes out to over 220,000 Canadian Chartered Professional Accountants. You can access the PDF here. A few comments: The Family Guide to the Internet is still available on YouTube, and yes, it's embarrassing. Unlike the article suggests, I did 'rock and roll and party all night' - while doing my stint as an auditor while on the road, I served as a DJ at the local pub. I don't know how I ever survived. And yes, I did a short stint with KISS!
Enjoy! I did!

Temple University: Micro-influencers have a major influence on Generation Z. “Recently published in the Journal of Brand Strategy, ‘Tapping generation Z micro-influencers for marketing and branding’ outlines that the key to reaching Gen Zers may lie in the utilization of non-celebrity influencers, better known as micro-influencers.”

"Independent stock commentator David Webb said he would make the Webb-site Database available... on GitHub after his death, in a reversal of his earlier plans to shut down the site for good.

Ultracrepidarian is a word coined by William Hazlitt to mock William Gifford, a critic who expressed opinions on matters beyond his expertise. It derives from the Latin phrase "ultra crepidam sutor iudicaret", meaning "the cobbler should not judge beyond his shoe". #trump #maga #dictator #democracy #america #government #knowledge #education #expertise
Bei #miosga hockt heute wieder der Herr #soder und wird zu existenziellen Fragen um seine Meinung gebeten. Seit ein paar Tagen wissen wir, dass sein Bashing der #grunen erschwert, unser Land weiter zu bringen. Die #cdu kopiert inzwischen deren Politik. Ich würde mir in solchen Sendungen Leute wünschen, die #ruckgrat #expertise und #loyalität für dieses Land und nicht nur für ihre eigenen Machtspielchen einbringen. #miosga kann man sich getrost sparen.

Tubefilter: Financial advice on TikTok is a volatile market. “Social media is a growing source of financial advice for Gen Z and Millennials, but not all experiences in communities like #FinTok are positive. A survey published by Intuit Credit Karma found that most people in those cohorts have consulted creators on TikTok, YouTube, and Instagram for help with their finances, but some of them […]

This one time in maybe 2018 I pissed off a few uni colleagues. At a "senate" meeting (it deserves quotation marks at my school) some people with #psychometrics training & experience, including me, explained that a specific kind of #assessment was invalid--as in zero validity for intended purpose--so we should not use it. It literally provides no information about what it says, so we might as well roll dice or draw #random words from a hat.
The administration argued vehemently for keeping the assessment. They claimed it was valid (we showed them it wasn't). They claimed that a "caring" or "astute" instructor could glean valuable information (we showed them that this wasn't possible). They appealed to the other professors, implying that not using this assessment meant they didn't care about their students, and that voting to eliminate this assessment meant they (the eggheaded intellectuals) were being dunked on by the eggheaded intellectuals.
The measure failed and we still use the assessment. After the meeting I and someone else were bemoaning the result. I said something like "What happened in there was Trumpian." A colleague walking by overheard and angrily asked, "What do you mean by that?!"
I said, "The faculty heard from the experts telling them something they didn't like and they chose to go with the people who had no expertise telling them what they wanted to hear."
(I am sometimes not diplomatic; this makes a good story, but I really wish I had found a better way to say that.)
The person audibly huffed, actually turned on their heel, and walked away. They haven't spoken to me since.

Why do experts seem less certain than everyone else? (Why is there surging expertise rejection?)
In anaesthesia, embracing uncertainty means knowing what you don't know. We don't control - we adapt, modify, and respond to complex systems.
Exploring how true expertise means being comfortable with complexity and change, and why intellectual humility defines real experts:

The Association of Online Educators in Eastern Europe might have taken some inspiration from the World Association for Online Education that I founded in 1998. Now they have invited me to present a keynote address at their annual conference in Sarajevo. The topic is "AI Challenges for University Educators," and it is relevant to all teachers and learners. I have not mentioned AI before, but I have been using it (not for writing!), and I need to understand such technologies for the EU-Asia grant project for intergovernmental digital partnerships.
The presentation slideshow is available by scrolling down the page at http://dx.doi.org/10.13140/RG.2.2.22632.58882

The Death of Government Expertise
Why #Trump and #Musk are on a firing spree

" #DOGE isn’t really a dept... and it has little to do with saving money... The whole enterprise is an attack against civil servants & the very notion of apolitical #expertise...
Modern societies, as #Americans are soon to learn, cannot function without #experts in every field, especially the many thousands who work in #public service."

Populists are generally wary of #experts, especially those who work for the government, but #ElonMusk is no man of the people: He is the richest human being in the world, & he runs major companies that rely both on government-provided #expertise & significant government subsidies. As @anneapplebaum wrote, “Musk has made no attempt to professionally audit or even understand many of the programs being cut”—a willful indifference that gives away the game.

It is a name that #Trump is allowing a favored donor & ally to use in a reckless campaign against various targets in the federal govt. The whole enterprise is an attack against #CivilServants & the very notion of #apolitical #expertise.
Trump allies make noises about expert failures—& yes, experts sometimes do fail. In particular, #MAGA world continues to demonize what its constituents believe was the medical establishment’s attempt to curtail civil rights during the pandemic…
