Most school tech fails. Not bc it's bad tech but bc schools skip the rollout process.
Follow those 4 steps: assess, set goals, test, then roll out slow.
Start small, work with willing teachers, and track student impact not device counts. #EduSky

Tried using tech in class and it backfired?
You’re not alone.
Teachers test links, prep devices, plan perfectly & things still break.
That's not failure. That's learning.
Start small. Use one tool well. Then grow.

Banning phones doesn’t fix phone addiction. Students still struggle when they go home. Instead, teach them to notice when tech helps & when it drains.
Start with one question:
“When did your phone help you yesterday? When did it hurt?”
That’s how digital wellness begins #AIEduSky #EduSky

“Six-seven!” keeps echoing through your school?
Don’t shut it down.
Kids use trends like this to bond, cope, and claim space.
Join the joke, study the pattern, then guide the energy.
Let the fad build connection, not friction. #EduSky

Two-thirds of US voters now say a college degree isn’t worth the money.
Ten years ago, most believed it was.
Now Gen Z is picking trade schools and skipping four-year universities.
The question is: would you make the same choice today?
Because millions are. #EduSky

Surrey Schools approved 3 AI tools for students.
Teachers now use MagicSchool, SchoolAI, and TeachAid to build custom lessons, track progress, & create curriculum.
All tools must meet data safety & learning standards.
The district wants students thinking with AI, not replacing their thinking.

Extra time on tests is the most common accommodation for students with ADHD. It’s also one of the least effective. I used to think accommodations always helped, as long as they were generous.
Support should match the need not the pressure to provide something. UDL anyone? #EduSky

UNESCO trained teachers in 100+ countries to use AI responsibly. 4 projects just got global awards for teaching kids about bias, data privacy, and ethical AI. Brazil 🇧🇷 made AI a required subject. Egypt 🇪🇬
gave 600,000 people free AI training in Arabic.
The shift is global. #AiEduSky #EduSky

“Talks too much.”
“Doesn’t focus.”
“Could try harder.”
If you heard these in school, you probably had ADHD.
The system wasn’t built for your brain.
It was built for quiet, still, compliant.
Time to build a new one. #EdySky

UAE 🇦🇪 is putting AI in every classroom. Starting now, students from Year 1 to 9 will learn AI through a full curriculum. Teachers get ready-made lesson plans and tools. No extra prep needed. By 2026, teacher training starts. By 2027, schools get AI education accreditation. #AIEduSky #EduSky

Google and the University of Waterloo are teaming up. Goal: Build new ways to learn using AI.
They’re launching a $1M project led by Prof. Edith Law, focused on hands-on AI tools. Students will design and test real prototypes in the Futures Lab.
New models for future jobs will start now. #AIEduSky

Most schools treat recess like an afterthought. But research shows it helps kids focus, manage emotions, & build social skills, not fights, boredom, or exclusion.
When adults lead games, mediate conflicts, or even walk and talk with students, everyone wins.

Homework doesn’t help much in early grades.
But by high school, it can raise scores by over 100%.
Not all homework works: rote tasks kill motivation and spike stress.
The best ones? Open-ended, student-driven, and linked to real thinking.
More isn’t better. Better is better. #EduSky

Unstructured play boosts test scores. A year of make-believe and tag gave 4-year-olds better self-control, and higher math and reading scores. Free play helps kids ignore distractions, follow rules, & stick with hard tasks.

Phones are banned at a Swiss school.
Since 2022, test scores rose 6.4%.
Students talk more. Distractions dropped.
Anxiety levels fell. Friendships deepened.
No phones = more focus, learning, and real connection.

Gen AI didn’t wait for school approval.
It showed up fast, without a process, without a plan.
Now teachers face chaos: no policy, no training, no clear purpose.
MIT’s Justin Reich says: start small, stay humble, test what works.
What would your first AI trial in school look like?

Teachers aren’t asking “Are students using AI to cheat?” anymore.
They’re assuming every take-home assignment is done by AI.
Essays & book reports are being replaced by in-class work.
Now schools are scrambling to define what cheating even means.
Old ways of teaching don’t work anymore #AiEduSky
