Rich Casey<p>I’ve been reading “Building a Second Brain” by Tiago Forte via my Kindle. I’ve been following him on YouTube and have adopted his PARA method. Moved all my notes from Evernote to Apple Notes earlier this year and just learned that read.google.com will show me all my highlights from Kindle books. Cool! Reviewing and moving these highlights to my second Brain now. <a href="https://mastodon.radio/tags/BASB" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BASB</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.radio/tags/productivity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>productivity</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.radio/tags/organizedmayhem" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>organizedmayhem</span></a></p>

Dr Bron Eager<p>Wrote a 2200-word blog post today!</p><p>How? </p><p>Easy 👇</p><p>1. Used Jasper.ai to sketch an outline and built the skeleton of the article.</p><p>2. Added additional content from additional desk research, notes from my second brain in Obsidian and following up on ideas raised by Jasper.</p><p>3. Rewrote the whole thing in my own words.</p><p>4. Optimised the text for SEO / Google search results</p><p>5. Uploaded to WordPress and published 🥳</p><p>My takeaway:</p><p>I strongly believe we should be teaching students how to use technology to write rather than penalising them for working with tools commonly used in industry.</p><p>You still need foundational knowledge to create, evaluate, and craft writing, even if you initially use AI to create it.</p><p><a href="https://aus.social/tags/AiWriter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AiWriter</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AI</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Writing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Writing</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/highered" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>highered</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/academic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>academic</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/AcademicWriting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AcademicWriting</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/BASB" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BASB</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/SecondBrain" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SecondBrain</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Obsidian" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Obsidian</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/SEO" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SEO</span></a> </p><p>Posting my progress for my <a href="https://aus.social/tags/AccountabilityBuddy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AccountabilityBuddy</span></a> project</p><p>Links: <br>* <a href="https://www.jasper.ai/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="">jasper.ai/</span><span class="invisible"></span></a><br>* <a href="https://obsidian.md/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">obsidian.md/</span><span class="invisible"></span></a><br>* <a href="https://wordpress.org/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">wordpress.org/</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p>
