Bas van Fraassen has won the 2026 Rolf Schock Prize in Logic and Philosophy

It was an honor and a privilege to study under, and work with, Bas at San Francisco State. In particular, his advanced logic course brings back so many wonderful and impactful memories. I can't think of a more deserving philosopher for such a prize! #philsci #philosophy

Tamalez, bai, Tere. Galera garrantzitsuegia batzuentzako, ni barne. Benetako a sensible woman, emakume zentzuduna.

Haackena hemen duzu zuzenean [www.academia.edu/94927731/The_Erosion_of_... 'Academia' izeneko horretan agertzen da, eta ez dut gogoratzen librea den ala erregistratu behar duzun. Dena dela, nik badut eta pasako nizuke.

Behean aipatzen den 'neuromandangas' hori izen oso umoretsu eta egokia iruditzen zait (:-). Teknomandangasen inguruan, abenduan ateratako artikulu hau gustatu zait: José F. Bellod, 'Realismo capitalista: El fin de la promesa tecnológica en la educación', Argumentos de Razón Técnica 28: 47-80.

Ez horregatik, Tere. Bai, Haack dagoeneko bere urtetxoak ditu eta nabaritzen zaio oso erreta dagoela akademian gertatzen diren 'gauzekin' (batez ere, unibertsitate mailan). Niri asko gustatu izan zait beti. Nire asmoa etzi Kaxildan egotea da (Arrietari esan nion). Ordura arte!!!

Ezagutuko duzue, baina soilik gogoratzearren, Susan Haackek testu hau idatzi zuen orain dela hiru urte. Interesgarria, baino batzuentzat eskola zaharrekoa (kar kar): 'The Erosion of Academic Virtue'. Journal of Philosophical Investigations 16(41): 1-18.

The Age of Academic Slop is Upon Us what happens when AI automates "normal science"?

—If anyone can produce a competent empirical paper on any topic, the bottleneck moves to identifying which questions are important to ask ... the question for reviewers and editors is less “is this right?” and more “why does this matter?

I think this move was needed even before AI.

Han egon ginen. Gauzak ongi laburtuta, baina denbora gutxiegi aurkezpenerako. Aretoa beteta edo ia. Zorionak!!

new paper by Sean Westwood:

With current technology, it is impossible to tell whether survey respondents are real or bots. Among other things, makes it easy for bad actors to manipulate outcomes. No good news here for the future of online-based survey research

Tamalez, itxura guztia dauka ez dela soilik ikasleen kontua.

Erriondok pedagogismoari pedagogikeria, ggb, esaten dio, baina liburuan argi dago gauza bera ez direnik. Uste dut ismoa jartzeak, liburuan, intentzio zuzena duela.

Andrew Feenberg on Internet, technology and some of their consequences for education and teaching.

Teresa Maldonado Barahonaren bi liburu guztiz gomendagarriak, azkena aurtengoa. Dos libros del todo recomendables, Hablemos claro (2021) y Pedagogismoaren gezurtapen bat (Una refutación del pedagogismo) (2025).

Hablemos claro aurretik eta orain hau: liburu ausartak, interesgarriak... beharrezkoak ia. Zorionak!!!
