Study Notes
Ukraine's Rocket Attacks on Antonovsky Bridge
- Ukraine's government studied special reports to understand how destroying the bridge would affect Russian soldiers' morale.
- The reports analyzed Russian social media content, socioeconomic data, and online behavior to predict the impact on Russian "loyalists" and liberals.
- The analysis used artificial intelligence (AI) to correlate changes in Russian sentiments with the potential plight of their country's soldiers.
- The work continues to shape important Ukrainian decisions about the course of the war.
Active Learning vs Traditional Lectures
- A Harvard study showed that students actually learned more from active learning classrooms, despite feeling they learned more from traditional lectures.
- The study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences used a 15-week introductory physics class to test the effectiveness of active learning.
- Students were randomly assigned to traditional lectures or active learning classrooms, and their perceptions and actual learning outcomes were measured.
- The results showed that students felt they learned more from lectures, but actually scored higher on tests following active learning sessions.
- The study authors found that actual learning and feeling of learning were strongly anticorrelated.
- Students may initially prefer traditional lectures, but they eventually see the value of active learning and appreciate its benefits.
- The study suggests that teachers should inform students about the benefits of active learning to improve their educational outcomes.
