1:1 Programs Are No Longer Innovative; Were They Ever? luke-callahan.com/11-program… via @CallahanLuke

Every college syllabus should include these graphs. Use AI for homework, you will get it done faster and get a higher grade, and then get crushed on the exam.

If you need me, I’m rewatching 26-minutes of July 4th fireworks recorded back in 2017.

Excellent read. Tons of funds, so how hard can it be to start an elementary school with Meta backing? Very difficult... | wsj.com/us-news/education/th…

On this day in 1983, Joe Delaney died a hero attempting to save three children from drowning. Today and always, we honor his memory and sacrifice.

An important business reminder when you are dealing with AI generated content.

2. Stop explaining yourself to people who are committed to misunderstanding you. You could have a PowerPoint, data, witnesses. They'll still twist your words. Your energy is finite. Spend it on people who listen, not people who've already decided who you are.

Google breathes in, educators breathe out. This is yet another great addition to Google Workspace for Education. NotebookLM notebooks available to students within Classroom | workspaceupdates.googleblog.…

Also, we have to continue to push for the types of learning experiences that EdTech bolsters and that improves the learning experience and environment. Passive use of EdTech and devices has got to end.

It’s a simple as this. We appear to have lost the narrative on screen time. It’s ovah. If you are using EdTech tools well & w/ purpose, it’s time to share it out. More parental education is needed on what works. Communities need coherent action plans on how EdTech is being used.

Updates to the CoSN Digital Leap Success Matrix are out! | Happy to have provided thoughts and ideas to this update, working alongside a host of other awesome CoSN volunteers! | luke-callahan.com/strengthen… #edtech

All the EdTech & screen-time hate...How do you know if a one-to-one program (#Chromebooks, #iPads) is successful? Further, what data are you capturing to support the claim of being successful? | I'd love to read some ideas! | #edtechchat #edtech #k12 #1to1 #edchat #education

Great “trick” to get kids to learn Two groups read the same passage. * Group A was told they'd be tested. * Group B was told they'd have to teach it to another student. Nobody actually taught anything. They were just told they’d have to teach. Group B crushed it. Better recall. Better organization. Advantage concentrated on main points. So just believing they'd have to teach changed how they studied. The researchers' line that stuck with me: students have effective study strategies they simply don't use unless prodded to. So our kids already know how to learn well. They just don't do it when they're told to study for a test. The test framing makes them passive. While teaching makes them active. At @ForgePrep, the highest level of mastery students can demonstrate is teaching another students to competence. It’s part of why we have Montessori mixed age classes as this creates more opportunities for this type of teaching

Probably more difficult to pull off in higher-ed but oral defense and class presentations are excellent tools to “show what students know” to combat AI in K12 | apnews.com/article/college-o… #edtech

Powerful words from University of Pennsylvania students against their university's headlong rush to embrace of AI:

To confirm, this “100% AI generated” passage is the opening of chapter 5 from Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein

Cybersecurity is bolstered by data minimization & limiting access. Addt'l great points from @MTebbenkamp | Data can't be compromised if it doesn't exist, so don't collect data without a defined need! Ensure student data is deleted when no longer needed! #METAA

Good points to consider from @MTebbenkamp | Technology isn’t innovation…or adding new tools. It is a mindset shift for continuous improvement with evidence-informed changes… #METAA

Poor data governance can erode trust among staff, the community, parents, and even the entire educational system. Governance is about trust, not paperwork! #METAA @MTebbenkamp
