Alberto Quian🚀 Fresh off the press! I’ve just received the printed edition of 'Disinformation and Risk Society. What is at Stake with the Proliferation of Information Disorders', a collective effort to dissect the complexities of today’s information landscape. And guess what? The Fediverse takes center stage in my contribution! <br> <br> In my chapter, 'Fediverse: Decentralised and Interoperable Networks in Times of Disinformation', I explore how this decentralized, community-driven ecosystem is reshaping the digital public sphere. While centralized platforms struggle with disinformation and algorithmic manipulation, the Fediverse offers a radical alternative—one built on transparency, user autonomy, and federation protocols like ActivityPub.<br> <br> 🔍 Key topics I explore:<br> <br> 🔹 The roots and evolution of decentralized online social networks (DOSNs).<br> 🔹 The Musk Effect—how Elon Musk’s Twitter takeover fueled a migration wave to Mastodon.<br> 🔹 The promise (and challenges) of community-driven moderation.<br> 🔹 How the Fediverse can empower ethical, independent journalism in an era of algorithmic chaos.<br> <br> This book is part of the IBERIFIER project, funded by the European Commission, and brings together top researchers tackling disinformation from multiple angles.<br> <br> A huge thanks to the editors and fellow contributors for making this project a reality!<br> <br> 🔗 Check it out here: <a href="https://lnkd.in/dbexg4-M" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://lnkd.in/dbexg4-M</a><br> <br> 🎥 Note: The video I’m sharing was generated with AI.<br> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Book?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Book</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Fediverse?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Fediverse</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Decentralization?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Decentralization</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Disinformation?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Disinformation</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/IBERIFIER?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#IBERIFIER</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/DigitalMedia?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DigitalMedia</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Journalism?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Journalism</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Media?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Media</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Mastodon?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Mastodon</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/SocialNetworks?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SocialNetworks</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/EthicalTech?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#EthicalTech</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/PublicSphere?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PublicSphere</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/MuskEffect?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MuskEffect</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/EuropeanCommission?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#EuropeanCommission</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/DOSNs?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DOSNs</a>

Joseph Meyer<p>Critical Thinking: The Other National Deficit</p><p>My wife bought me this t-shirt for my birthday several years ago, perhaps just before I retired from a career leading a team of researchers who conducted administrative policy studies at a large public university. Toward the end of my career, the university participated in a national test of college learning outcomes called the Collegiate Learning Assessment (CLA). Ideally, the CLA assesses the knowledge and skills of entering freshmen and then reassessed their knowledge and skills four years later to measure the educational value added in a true pre-post test. But, because we were in a hurry for results that could be published on a public dashboard to be used in a re-accreditation visit, we instead tested samples of entering freshmen and graduating seniors who had similar high school percentile ranks and SAT scores. Results showed the critical thinking skills of our graduating seniors, compared to entering freshmen, showed slightly less improvement than the national average for graduating seniors at other universities. University leaders were concerned about this finding and were discussing ways to improve at the time I retired.
