Students across Canada are exposed to artificial intelligence (AI) whether through search engines, writing assistants, automated recommendation systems or social media. That everyday exposure raises a first, fundamental question: What should students should learn about AI? This goal is often described as AI literacy, which combines conceptual understanding with responsible use and critical judgment about AI. A […] … learn more→

French higher education attracted nearly 450,000 international students in 2024-2025, placing France 7th in  the world. They represent almost 15% of the student population in French universities. Student mobility is constantly increasing . In Europe, there have been more organized mobility programs in ten years than in the previous twenty-seven years, with demand in 2025 up 9% compared to 2024. This acceleration is […] … learn more→

Coherence in research design is not the same as coherence in academic writing, although the two are related. Research design coherence is sometimes described through the metaphor of a red thread, one continuous line of logic running from the question through every subsequent decision. This metaphor is a just a little bit too tidy, research […] … learn more→

What happens when natural selection, the most powerful process driving change in the living world, shapes artificial intelligence (AI), perhaps the most potent technology humanity has invented to date? We might be about to find out. According to a new paper published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, we are entering the era of […] … learn more→

AI doesn’t have a boss. It doesn’t really care about rules. And most of us don’t have any say over what it will do next. Yet the technology is all around us, firmly established in workplaces, financial systems, healthcare and defence. So maybe it needs someone to keep an eye on its progress and set some boundaries.

The idea that muscle is a simple mechanical motor has become obsolete thanks to a discovery that has changed modern physiology: in reality, it functions as an endocrine organ capable of influencing virtually all the systems of our body. During muscle contraction, hundreds of molecules called myokines are released, substances essential for the body to function correctly. […] … learn more→

In recent decades, bilingual education has expanded rapidly and gained significant international recognition. In Spain, the model is widely implemented: 41.4% of primary school students and 32.2% of secondary school students participate in bilingual programs, studying subjects such as Social Sciences, Mathematics, Art, History, and Physics and Chemistry in a foreign language. This growth has been driven […] … learn more→

Amid a rapid, AI-driven technology boom and all the changes it’s entailed, mental health issues due to social isolation have been on the rise. Researchers in social and clinical psychology have documented this shift and coined it the “loneliness epidemic.” Human connection is imperative to psychological well-being but the world is increasingly disconnected. With technology streamlining our lives, many report growing […] … learn more→

Imagine someone who feels a lump on their side. They go to the doctor, distressed, and the doctor, upon palpating, says, “That’s not a lump, it’s a floating rib.” It’s a funny anecdote to tell at the dinner table (and joke about the person’s possible hypochondria) because it was easy for the specialist to identify […] … learn more→

Expert voices in Australian science news coverage are still more likely to be those of men, according to recent research, despite journalists themselves being fairly evenly spread between genders. Our study of print and online science news from 2018–22 found an increase in the proportion of female journalists writing about science. The number of women quoted […] … learn more→
