Led a #Curipod session for #ConnectedFalkirk this week. 90 teachers tried polls, drawing tasks, and AI feedback. Mix of newbies and experienced folks, all exploring what AI can do in classrooms.

Halloween's over but the scares keep coming - prelims are here! 👻
Set up a #SchoolAI Space for my exam course. The dashboard shows what students are asking, so I can target revision where they're actually struggling. Really helpful.

"You will have Smart boards in your classrooms" - that's what uni promised my year group two decades ago. Finally got one and I'm loving it! Students are queuing up to use it, engagement is brilliant, and I'm discovering features I didn't know existed. Worth the wait.

🚧 Taking Cone-trol of the Journey 🚧

A traffic cone might not be the first thing you’d expect to help a teacher find their way with AI… but it’s working for me.

It wasn’t until halfway through 2025 that I realised I’d actually been an early adopter of AI in education. That realisation made me determined to stop waiting for someone else to do what I felt neede...

Excited to see 1 of my @schoolai.com Spaces featured.

As part of our Global Citizenship unit, students designed Fairtrade chocolate bars, planned ethical sourcing, and pitched them Shark Tank style 🍫🦈👏

👕 #TechTShirtTuesday - this time it’s the shirt, not the company.

Trust me.
But… trust me how? Believe me? Trust the AI because I’m the one using it? Or trust that it’s a good thing? 🤔

Curious what others see in it.

After a positive meeting with our Head last week, my fellow digital lead teacher and I are feeling very much like the “first cone out”, as described in the #Conefessions series by David Curran over on LinkedIn.

They say 3 is a magic number and with the #ListEd podcast from the lovely Kat Cauchi and Mark Anderson it really is.
Here is the 3rd epidose from #ListEd featuring Ivan Langton.
Well worth a listen when you get five precious minutes to yourself

It's more #TechtextbookTuesday than #TechTshirtTuesday but lifelong learning is at the heart of being an #Eduguardian so I reckon I'm okay with a cheeky inclusion of the latest book from @theaieducator.io
Something in here for everyone.

Seeing things through a different lens
It’s a new school year and teachers are creating new resources or giving old ones a glow up so you might be on the lookout for a new visual app. Allow me to suggest a natty little platform I heard of ...

Quizzes aren’t just fun, they’re retrieval practice in disguise.
A quick Teams challenge gives students the recall reps they need and the buzz of competition.

That’s why I make space for @wayground.bsky.social quiz and give them a #TechTshirtTuesday shout out 👕
