Excellent tips here. They could even be used when working with adults in a PD setting!

Excellent guidance here from @leonfurze.com and basically what I've been saying from the start. You don't need a specific policy on AI. Look at what you already have in place - technology use agreements, academic integrity, etc.

I’m taking this class right now! Tony does a great job and offers actionable feedback for every assignment. I’m learning a lot. Highly recommend!

As always, here's @marcusluther.bsky.social with a truly excellent piece on @edutopia.org! In education, we talk about the time about teachers modeling learning and behavioral habits for kids. Marcus applies that same idea here to our AI use. www.edutopia.org/article/teac...

Highly recommend as your next read!

The creator of the AI agent “Einstein” wants to free humans from the burden of academic labor. Critics say that misses the point of education entirely.

How Teens Use and View AI Just over half of U.S. teens say they have used chatbots for help with schoolwork, and 12% say they’ve gotten emotional support. More teens think AI will be positive for them than negative

Wow! What a cool new update to Google Vids! Styled captions...

It’s more difficult than ever to know what is real online, as fake images, voices, and videos become indistinguishable from the real thing. How did we get here, and are there any guardrails?

I highly recommend educators of all stripes read 7th grade Micha's reviews/impressions of the edtech that he uses in his day-to-day activities for school. micahblachman.beehiiv.com/p/is-educati...

"Both things can be true. Students are becoming more skilled at extracting value from AI while simultaneously becoming more dependent on it." A piece built entirely around conversations with students about AI? Must-read of the morning: fitzyhistory.substack.com/p/ai-convers...

Did you know that you can use Canvas in Gemini to create presentations? My new video will show you how!

Great work by Matt Miller @ditchthattextbook.com - How to create and use Google Gemini Gems in the classroom with ideas for teacher and student use. Includes sample Gem prompts that you can copy/paste and customize.

I just watched this video about #EdTech from @moreperfectunion.bsky.social. As someone who has promoted technology in K12 classrooms for years, I have a lot to think about. Teachers: Watch this! #EduSky youtu.be/aByWLQ7h2n0?...

🆕 Nano Banana features in Google Vids! If you have an Ed Plus license or Teaching and Learning Upgrade, you can use Nano Banana for image editing in Google Vids. Check out my new video!

New Gemini features in Google Vids! If you have an Ed Plus license or the Teaching and Learning Upgrade, you can add Gemini-generated scripts, AI voiceovers and background music to existing Google Slides presentations that you have added to Google Vids. Check out my latest video!

If you have an Ed Plus license or Teaching and Learning Upgrade, you now have access to AI features in Google Vids. I love the read-along mode in the teleprompter and the AI voice overs. Check it out!

This article is in stark contrast to the article I posted earlier today. Two education titans with different opinions. Who is right?

While uploading a video to my YouTube channel I learned that my channel is 14 years old today! My how time flies! Check out my channel www.youtube.com/@MickieMuell... I just uploaded a new video on the Gemini prompting tools in Google Classroom. BTW the video was made with Google Vids.

Well this is certainly interesting... #AIinEducation #EduSky

Have you tried the template tools in Gemini in Classroom? Check out how to use them!

I'm spending some time with Gemini in Google Classroom today! Check out my overview tutorial video!

“This is what happens when you let a machine that is essentially a stochastic probabilistic auto complete engine sitting atop the same technology sucking up the identical database eating itself and being fed the same prompt looks like.”

How to use AI tools is the least interesting and important part of AI. Every edu-AI discussion must start and end with a deep look at its ethical implications and pedagogical implications. The tools are easy to use. That’s part of their danger.

I have always been fascinated by Amelia Earhart. After reading this excellent book, I feel like I finally truly understand her story. Best book you will read on Earhart.

I had a great afternoon in South Sioux City today working w/ a Wayne State College learning community Master’s cohort. We discussed all things AI in ed. The good, the bad and the ugly. If you leave out the bad and the ugly, you are doing it wrong. Great group of learners with awesome questions.

The question we need to be asking - why are students cheating?

Thanks to @janerosenzweig.bsky.social for sharing this article: What AI Looks Like in American Classrooms. www.bloomberg.com/news/feature... This was the most important passage for me. “I have an artistic resistance to it.” His reasoning is spot on.

The 80/20 rule and AI... The question isn't "What's the optimal ratio?" but "What kinds of thinking and learning do we want to preserve, develop, and cultivate in an age of artificial intelligence?" #AIinEducation nickpotkalitsky.substack.com/p/rethinking...

"Even if you reject AI on ethical, moral or ideological lines, you need to know what you’re talking about—rather than basing your perspectives on hearsay, assumptions, and out of date information."

"Asked to generate intervention plans for struggling students, AI teacher assistants recommended more-punitive measures for hypothetical students with Black-coded names and more supportive approaches for students the platforms perceived as white" www.chalkbeat.org/2025/08/06/a...

So many announcements from Google for Education coming out of ISTE! My favs: Vids is now available to ALL Workspace customers. And Gemini in Classroom is also available to all customers.

Kids are amazing. youtu.be/oXbcDIs_yZ4

Thanks to @becalzada.bsky.social for sending this my way. I’ve been looking at #AI “slop” through the lens of emotional exploitation and mis-, dis- and mal- information but I had not yet seen this episode. As always, John Oliver is spot on. youtu.be/TWpg1RmzAbc #edusky #TLsky #TLSkyChat

Interesting…

Attack your assessments before you turn to AI and academic integrity. 3 questions: 1. Are we assessing what’s actually in the curriculum? 2. Did we teach the skill we’re grading? 3. Can every student show what they know under these conditions? #ArtificialIntelligence #AIEducation #EduSky

You won't be able to tell because of em dashes. You won't be able to tell because of "delve." You won't be able to tell with a checker. You will be able to tell if the source cited doesn't exist or was written by a different author. But a lot of times you won't be able to. Telling is not the way.

✌️out Room 305! Leaving behind great memories, meaningful conversations and some really super people. For the last 15 years I have had the BEST job in the BEST district. 31 years in education in 3 different districts. I have been so lucky. Looking forward to my 2nd act - whatever that might be!

Important talking points here from @leonfurze.com #AIinEducation

Are we witnessing the end of the browser era? In my latest piece, I explore how apps, AI & new platforms are reshaping how we connect, learn & work online. Are we ready for this shift? Let’s discuss! #EdTech #DigitalLiteracy #Bloop_mu #EduSky open.substack.com/pub/bronwynd...

"Even seventh graders can see artificial intelligence is a lesser form of care and attention." Wow. #EduSky www.nytimes.com/2025/05/14/o...

What if we focused on learning rather than catching the cheaters? Focusing on the cheaters is nothing but a never ending game of whack-a-mole. Focusing on learning is a better option: Catch them Learning: A Pathway to Academic Integrity in the Age of AI

Thanks to @marcusluther.bsky.social for sharing how his students feel about AI usage. If you haven't talked to your students about AI usage, what are you waiting for? I fear we aren't having these conversations with students. And they absolutely should be involved in the converstaion.

AI risk assessments from Common Sense Media #EduSky #AIinEducation

"Without educational institutions taking the lead in establishing disclosure norms, we risk creating a society where generative tools stand in for human communication, even sense-making, without question." Easy first step: always disclose AI usage yourself. marcwatkins.substack.com/p/the-storie...

From AJ Juliani - Things Have Changed If your curriculum hasn’t changed since generative artificial intelligence, ask why? If your assessments haven’t changed since November 2022, ask why?
