Ahhhh this is truly the worst. 😭

Yeah! It’s truly become a monster. The kicker for me was that Resourcefulness was on there twice. So clearly someone really thought hard about this form this year…🙄

Yeah, I try but it’s just so annoying because there are a million comment boxes so copy/paste just isn’t as simple. It’s like, wait, did this comment go in the “time management” box or the “resourcefulness” box? This is truly a great example of how we have “over-pharmacisted” LORs… 🤦🏼‍♀️

Yes I am still writing residency letters of recommendation on December 26. And yes, #PhORCAS just deleted my whole reference for someone because I didn’t save it before it timed out. Wtf is up with systems that don’t have autosave in the year 2024!?!?!? 😡 #pharmacy #pharmsky #academicsky #sob

A word of caution: it might feel like that grant/paper/review cannot possibly wait over the Christmas period, but you can't get time with friends and family back. You likely won't be like "really wish I'd submitted that" in 5 years time but you might regret not spending time with those you love.

Oh snap. Used to be a quick ED/ICU intervention all the time back in the day to set the beta lactam first on the pump for nursing. Love that someone decided to look at outcomes here!

Is this a time where we wish AI bots were listening? 😉

Yes! I advise PharmD students so there’s a clear path and academic affairs keeps track for LOA etc, but for undergrads with so many different potential paths that a student can take to meet the requirements, it does seem overwhelming and something that #GenAI should be able to streamline!

Yes! Totally a pain point. Have you ever experimented with asking ChatGPT to review your material and point out where new links are needed? I wonder if it is possible… 🤔

Oh, I wish! Although while we’re at it, how about a universal submission portal and then journals (that make tons of money) can spend their time formatting rather than having us do it! 😬

Writing a letter of reference for someone? Or (gasp) drafting for someone who’s writing for you?

If you haven’t seen this graphic on avoiding gender bias, read it. Ref letters are broadly biased in both major and seemingly tiny ways. The bias is avoidable once you’re aware.

One thing I’d wish for was a better way of scheduling meetings with people from multiple institutions using our calendars, without ever having to fill out a doodle or when2meet again!

Let’s crowdsource in the #academicsky #teachlearnsky #edusky community. What is one boring, annoying, admin-y task that you wish #AI could simplify for you as an #educator? Maybe someone will know of an amazing tool to share! If not, we can manifest it. 😉

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 🫱🏻‍🫲🏽

Providing some ideas of ways learners could actually use it as a tool to help them with their own learning, including a self-reflection piece. Just a few ideas we came up with! #academicsky #EduSky #TeachLearnSky (2/2)

Just had a discussion with colleagues about this today! Co-creating a policy around #GenAI use with students (depending on level of learner, may need guardrails), providing examples of what is and is not appropriate and why (ie, being transparent about the Why behind assignments) (1/2)

A recent, hilarious example of how students don’t think of us as humans: my colleague and I (who are both pretty “human” with our students) were chatting outside a class and discussing plans to go to happy hour. A student looks at us in surprise and says, “Oh! You two are friends??” 😂

I agree with a lot of the other comments about having specific topics that are shared vs. not. But I teach graduate students (future pharmacist colleagues) so pretty soon they will often be working with me side by side and so I can share a bit more than I would in younger settings.

When I first learned about HIV as a kid, I largely learned that it was a death sentence. Now, many are living long productive lives with HIV. On this World AIDS Day, let's remember those we've lost, but also celebrate the progress we've made. #ThisIsScience Let's not go backwards. #medsky
