Occasionally in life, we have that chance to tick something off our bucket lists. This was one of those moments for me.

I wish I had had these tactics at my disposal earlier tonight: had a most dissatisfying conversation with an 'agent' on a food delivery app. 99% sure it was an AI instance...

How are you addressing critical thinking in the age of AI?

My colleague & I created this quick 15min PL for teachers on the need of shifting instruction to process over product. Students can use AI as a thought partner and teachers don't have to see it as the enemy.

I'm extremely grateful that "Raised to Obey: The Rise and Spread of Mass Education" (@princetonupress.bsky.social) had such a strong 1st week!

What is this book about? Why did I write it? Why should you care? A thread: 1/n

You’d be very much in the leading/innovating space…

Indeed, GenAI, either conversational or ‘reasoning’

What stage are you at with AI? If you are engaging in some way, then you are above the line. No judgment, just a position in time...

Just a reminder that BlueSky works a bit differently. If something resonates with you be sure to repost to let others know it is agreat idea! While likes are great, reposting highlights great ideas for the communities we are building. #TLSky #EduSky #KidLit #Skybrarian #Edtech #Education

This image serves as a reminder about social media sharing on Bluesky. It features a blue sky background with white clouds and a bold heading reading "REMINDER" accompanied by an exclamation mark in a red circle. The text emphasizes:

Bluesky's algorithm is not based on capitalism, so it works differently.
Engagement operates differently compared to other platforms.
While likes are good, reposting boosts visibility.
To support the community, repost content you resonate with to increase its visibility.
The message is designed to encourage users to engage through reposting for greater community impact.

Charles Fadel also advocates "... for a comprehensive redesign of curricula worldwide, focusing on four dimensions: Knowledge, Skills, Character, and Meta-Learning", which would require a curriculum redesign.

Thanks Jon - I was asked in a workshop by an English teacher: "I teach writing communication skills, such as writing letters and emails etc. Now that AI can do this for people, should I teach kids this skill?"

A few weeks ago I wrote an article explaining why I’m still on the fence with AI, and refuse to tip entirely into either refusal or full adoption. In this post, I’m pulling together som…

Here's a question for you: Should we teach something if AI (or technology) has made the content or context redundant? What should we keep, what might we abandon?

Looking forward to co-hosting Session 4 (of 4) with @leeannelavender.bsky.social in PeerSphere's AI in the Classroom community in a few hours. We are delving into how AI is impacting on assessment through a few different lenses.

What is one question or problem you have in this context?

For a bit of fun, especially for those who have been interacting with ChatGPT for some time (building up a history): Ask ChatGPT to roast you on what it knows about you. Amusing, and (scarily) specific for me...

Love Craig’s work on an authentic mechanism for teacher growth.

Craig Randall @trustbasedcraig.bsky.social · Dec 3

I’m on a mission to transform the world of teacher observations to a model of trust and support.

I want teachers to know that can be observed trying something new, have it be a disaster, yet know their principal will praise the risk taking—the path to growth and happy teachers who stay. #EduSky
