Someone at the IT is having a 'mare rushing out the Budget coverage.

This was a sponsored post in my Insta Stories.

The social team needs a break and a hug maybe.
A post from Instagram stories with a swipe up link for the Irish Times. A composite image of Leinster House, Jack Chambers and Paschal Donohoe is titled "Budget 2026: Main Points" but the bullet points that follow comprise non-sensical filler text (Lorem ipsum) and snippets apparently borrowed from a restaurant review (One point reads: "Borgo review: Well-priced and welcoming", the next "everything a good neighborhood", and finally "restaurant needsLorem ipsum dolor sit amet")

The suggestion here is that institutions are doing a disservice to students if the school doesn’t provide them with ai tools, which is *at best* an open question.
Half of Colleges Don’t Grant Students Access to Gen AI Tools
Half of chief technology officers say their institution doesn’t grant students access to generative AI tools. How does your college compare?

'when AI generates summaries, students bypass the cognitive engagement required to actively interpret academic work.

It is precisely this engagement – the effort to comprehend, synthesise and relate ideas – that catalyses learning.' 1/3
AI risks undermining the heart of higher education
If students don’t make the effort to comprehend, synthesise and relate ideas for themselves, they will miss out on meaningful academic growth, says Zahid Naz

I'm in da paper.
Talking eedtech in schools and Ai in education in the Sunday Business Post
Dr Eamon Costello is also focused on tech but he makes the point that it's just part of a rich panoply of experiences that are essential in an educational setting.. "You can use tech as a teaching tool, to differentiate instruction, to get diagnositic information from student, to figure out of they're learning what they're being taught"
