My wife wants to add some tech to her classroom this year. I picked up some #AI for her at the store. 😂😂😂 #A1 #edusky

The Journey to Deeper Learning: A Three-Phase Roadmap for Your Classroom We all want our students to achieve deep, lasting understanding. But what does that journey actually look like? And how can we use technology to guide them, not just distract them? Register now The TCEA Mastery Series on…

Brian Greeson lives in Boulder, Colo., but he hasn’t been home for the past few months — instead, he’s been biking across the United States to bring more attention to the high suicide rate among military veterans. Read his story:

I'm a lifelong #journaler. This has been so essential to my growth as a person. Glad to see others are finding similar value. #writer

A sad day for craft brewing in the United states. #beer #cheers

My reporting on the AI Action Plan. Definitely an about-face from the previous administration's approach to AI policy. Worth the short read.

I've been writing about cybersecurity for more than 10 years. I learn something new every time I interview SMEs. This BizTech feature I wrote profiles 3 SMBs about their approach to IAM.

“Libraries are a cornerstone of democracy—where information is free and equally available to everyone. People tend to take that for granted, and they don’t realize what is at stake when that is put at risk.”—Dr. Carla Hayden #Libraries #WisdomWednesday #ILA

There’s like an 83% chance that Jony Ive just capsized his legacy for a huge wad of OpenAI stock. They’re launching with a 10-minute product announcement video with NO PRODUCT! Just two buddies sharing how world-changing brilliant they each think the other is. www.theverge.com/news/671838/...

🔥Hot take🔥: if you don't understand how the rule of law works in the US, you should not be in charge of enforcing it.

A thoughtful take on the scourge of writer's block. We want to build it out to be this awful thing, but it's all part of the creative process. Writing Is Thinking

So many people have grown up to be the villains of our stories.

Cursive was dropped from most schools after Common Core in 2010—but now states like California, Iowa, and Oklahoma are bringing it back. Why? Research links it to stronger reading, spelling and storytelling.

📚The US got its report card back. Math and reading scores are still trailing behind pre-pandemic levels — with reading taking a page-turn for the worse. #Education #Edusky #Math #Academic

I am fascinated by these studies around handwriting and learning. ✍️ The education system continues to push in the digital direction 🖥️, mostly ignoring signs that it has a few shortcomings. #edusky

This paper shares some interesting insights into the challenge of integrating AI into education in a way that ethically supports genuine learning. Edu leaders really need to re-emphasize ethics and responsible use with AI, for both students and teachers. @positron96.bsky.social

Just finished all check-outs at the school library for the year. We increased circulations by 75%. Key takeaways: Kids prefer physical books to ebooks (by a large margin) Genrefying works (some kids will live in the romance or manga section exclusively) Bean bag chairs rock #tlsky #edusky #booksky

👇 Technology is scary when you don't engage with it. Educators owe it to themselves and their students to stay up to speed on how to integrate tech into education. Otherwise, you only get what they're selling you...and that may not be good for anyone. #edusky

@jazzypaul.bsky.social Happy Friday! Can we hear some Jazz Sabbath during request hour today?

I’m proud to lead the House Sustainable Energy & Environment Coalition Climate Jobs Task Force, where our mission is to grow investments and create jobs in the clean energy sector. We’re building a more sustainable future where working families can thrive. #EarthDay

Started reading Cormac McCarthy's The Crossing last week. So good, of course. Picked up this edition from @citylightsbooks.bsky.social last summer.

Wow! Interesting read from HBR on the top use cases for Gen #AI in 2025. Probably not what most people would expect.

I invented a new phone to help save time in the morning

How is #AI actually being used in classrooms? My EdTech K-12 article takes a look at three schools and how teachers are using it. #edusky

I cannot overstate the importance of reading books, particularly novels by respected authors, for critical thinking skills and reading comprehension. If the big gun novelists don't interest you, start small and work your way up. Or read whatever interests you. Just read. Or listen. It's all books.

#AI in K-12 education is good at stuff like reducing time spent on admin tasks and personalized learning, not so good at helping with the real education challenges, mental health and family support, per McGraw Hill Global Education report. How can educators pull value from AI? #edusky

This is high art

I saw this at the local consumer electronics store. Labeled this 1990 Apple Macintosh an antique 🤯. My mom has one when I was a kid. Retailed for $999. 1 MB or RAM.

This was a great conversation. I write about #laptops frequently. It seems like Acer puts real effort into providing thoughtful features and delivering newer tech at a fair price point. This one's for the #teacher on the go! #edusky

Who knew that museums, home furnishings, and fast food industries had anything in common? Yep, it's #digitalsignage . This was an interesting one to write.

This letter appeared in the Bloomsburg PA Press Enterprise this morning. I am assured the writer is who he purports to be, an Air Force veteran.

Trump 🪓 cuts hit Pullman National Park, cancels local high school field trip 😟 👎 @nationalparks.bsky.social

Excited to have a new Edged ultra efficient data center coming online nearby. I'm ready for that light speed netflix experience 🚀

Interesting results in this #AI adoption study. What does it mean that less educated people are using AI at higher rates? Any guesses out there?

Peace Out to one of my literary favorites, Tom Robbins. His whimsy and Scheherazade-like tale telling are sorely missing from an increasingly too-serious world. #tomrobbins

Another high school journalism banger from an up-and-coming journalist! This time, Sea World 🐋 is in the opinion crosshairs.

How do you teach your students about digital citizenship and internet safety? https://buff.ly/4gIimjz via Kathleen Morris #edusky #teachersky

Thanks for the share @hounsfield96.bsky.social . This paper raises an important consideration when using AI in education context. There needs to be a moral structure in place to guide AI use by students. Great opportunity for educators to go deeper on how best to serve their mission. #EduSky

I can attest to the personal value of journaling. It changed my life when I started and carried me into my current occupation: freelance writer. #journaling

Nothing to see here. Just another dumpster 🔥. A cyber director with no cyber security experience. What could go wrong?!

Is cursive writing a lost art in schools these days? I often see conflicting opinions on teaching cursive. #edusky

Weekend #wine - so good! 2013 Seghesio Venom. Can't go wrong with this one. Silky texture and balanced tanin.

Balancing AI and academic integrity is essential in education today, requiring strategies to thoughtfully integrate student engagement with AI. Here are five ways educators can navigate this landscape⬇ https://buff.ly/4jGOarG via Daring English Teacher #aiineducation #edtech #edusky

The role of audience in writing is super important. Without recognition that someone will read their work, students aren't all that motivated to write. Not surprising. K-12 writing programs should do more to foster and encourage opportunities to publish student writing. #edsky

Wine of the evening. 🍷 If you like berry and jammy forward Pinots, this is a good one.
