**Wo bleiben die Universitäten im Fediverse?**

Warum betreiben Universitäten nicht schon längst eigene Mastodon-Instanzen?

Warum bekommen Studierende nicht mit der Immatrikulation auch einen Mastodon-Handle?

Warum hosten Universitäten Vorlesungsvideos nicht über PeerTube im Fediverse?

Es gibt einiges, das für ein stärkeres Engagement von Universitäten im Fediverse spricht.

Ein Aufruf den man nur unterstĂĽtzen kann! #boost

English Version
**Where are the universities in the Fediverse?**

Why don't universities have their own Mastodon instances yet?

Why don't students get a Mastodon handle when they enrol?

Why don't universities host lecture videos on PeerTube in the Fediverse?

There is a lot to be said for universities getting more involved in the Fediverse.

A call that can only be supported! #boost

@jeroenbosman explains why Utrecht University has withdrawn itself from the World #University #ranking - and why we should follow its example: https://nitter.cz/jeroenbosman/status/1708477089828004235#m Universities do not become excellent because of rankings; rankings justify their existence because of universities https://academic.oup.com/rev/article/31/4/463/6749620?login=false


Stop evaluating academics based on #university #ranking indicators. Start rewarding the contributions of faculty and researchers in all areas of university activities.
Stop constructing university strategies based on university rankings. Do not use ranking tiers in analytical reports for management decision making; instead, focus on the actual contributions made by a university (scientific, educational, and societal).
Stop evaluating universities based on ranking indicators. Every university has a unique mission, and only fulfillment of this mission really matters.
Stop using ranking information in national strategies and other kinds of ambitions. Only universities’ contributions to national and global goals should be considered.
Stop paying money for consulting services to ranking compliers. This is a pure conflict of interests. Source: https://www.leidenmadtrics.nl/articles/the-role-of-university-rankings-in-research-evaluation-revisited



I had a Software Engineering Assignment which was due on monday, which asked us to do something called "Storyboarding". I was allowed to choose any idea. Basically, a #storyboard helps to demonstrate a particular feature, or a use-case of an app through sketches, or comic-strips.

Instead of doing something boring like a "Train reservation system", I tried something new: A Storyboard for #Pixelfed!
