We hosted a half-day seminar on using STACK in Nagoya University, welcoming its developer, Prof. C. Sangwin. During the seminar, Prof. Nakamura reported on student research analysing STACK answer data using Bayesian Knowledge Tracing, highlighting the importance of objectivity in evaluating knowledge acquisition. Prof. Fukui discussed implementing STACK quizzes to assess understanding in lectures on calculus and linear algebra for data analysis, and debated methods for setting time limits. Prof. Yoshitomi reported on utilising Parson's problems in his own linear algebra course to verify conceptual understanding. Finally, Prof. Sangwin delivered a talk detailing Parson's problems, emphasising the importance of generating trees as a correct answer flow for sorting to enable true/false evaluation. Following the seminar, we enjoyed Nagoya cuisine near Nagoya Station. Notably, before the seminar began, several of us had lunch together and coincidentally encountered one of Prof. Sangwin's former colleagues from his time at the University of Birmingham, highlighting how small the world can be.

| **[Rethinking STEM Education in the Age of AI](https://events.surlabs.info/)** | 29-30 Jan 2026 | Dos Hermanas, Spain | This is a two-day working forum for university leaders, educators, and learning technologists. As large language models (LLMs) reshape how students learn and how institutions assure integrity and quality, this gathering moves the global STEM community from debate to design — with practical STACK implementations, governance insights, and a clear playbook for AI-aware assessment and teaching. |
