In our new issue, @jenniferberkshire.bsky.social investigates the right-wing push toward “classical education,” a departure from the longstanding bipartisan agreement that school should first and foremost prepare students for the daily grind.

We had a great conversation on this podcast. If you haven’t been paying attention to the politics of education in the past few years, this should get you up to speed.

A great tribute to a great scholar. An important part of his legacy is all of the open access research that he helped bring into the world.

Back in grad school I spent the entire day working on something for a mentor. I proudly told him.

He then scolded me for wasting my day on something he could have showed me how to do in 30 minutes.

Looking back, this was one of the most important lessons I received (unpleasant though it was).

Filling classrooms with computers didn't have the huge and positive impact on learning that was promised. Filling them with tablets hasn't done it either.

I know this might sound absurd to many (especially politicians) but what if we filled them with highly skilled and properly supported educators?

Say it often, say it loud:

"Overall, research has not supported the common-sense presumption that digital approaches to schooling are better than non-digital alternatives. At the broadest level, widespread computer use in education has been found to be associated with lower student achievement."

I've been working with some PPS parents on a project that has sparked a lot of uncomfortable (and necessary IMO) conversations about the district's approach to TAG. I'm incredibly proud that our work was discussed by @haveyouheard.bsky.social - I hope you will listen!

If we want to stem the problematic use of A.I. in K-12 and higher education, we need to understand why students use it. The latest from me and @ehutt.bsky.social.
