Respectfully, the courses in your AI Academy seem designed to push "A.i." use on teachers. I see phrases like "You will leave with AI resources you can use tomorrow."
I see no focus on handling cheating and no mention of the cognitive or suicides associated with LLMs.

There are four proposed rules that would weaken the Endangered Species Act. Comments are due by midnight Monday, so please start working today (as having to make 4 separate comments takes a bit longer). Oregon Zoo has a great explainer with links. www.oregonzoo.org/news/defend-...

If your admin says "but we need to prepare students for AI-driven careers," you can calmly say no. Reiterate that AI-integration is the result of wild capitalist greed, the technologies themselves aren't "generative" or useful in most careers, and students should focus on process-based learning.

One reason why elite schools (Columbia, Brown, Cornell) caving to Trump’s illegal impoundment and extortion is so galling — a betrayal, really — is that they would have won had they fought. By giving up, they guaranteed every other school will have to fight harder.
