There is a VAST difference between #AI access in independent schools & public schools which is only widening the equity gap! That doesn’t even factor in the fact that so many voices & cultures are missing from training data! via @heidisiwak.bsky.social @ecooorg.bsky.social #Edusky #dreamforward

“We need to rebuild the trust between teachers and students which has broken as a result of #AI —grade 9s @heidisiwak.bsky.social says, start with IDENTITY as humans & the choices we make around AI @ecooorg.bsky.social #dreamforward #EduSky

@amansahota.bsky.social gets the panel started at #DreamForward. Look at these educators giving up their Saturday for PD! #onted @calarmstrong.bsky.social @heidisiwak.bsky.social @tk1ng.bsky.social

There is a panic by teachers, students, and families about the impact #AI will have which doesn’t align with an agenda by #edtech which is promoting AI #Edusky #dreamforward @ecooorg.bsky.social

Funding needs to be going to teacher learning first-meaningful PD which will help educators make effective #criticalthinking choices about #AI use in #EDU? #dreamforward via heidisiwak.bsky.social

Kids need to understand that #AI is based on vectors and thus we need to help kids understand how knowledge is interpreted by #AI #EduSky #Math #dreamforward

One way to teach visual literacy is to have students read graphic novels, which are a much-maligned genre of books that actually include examples of every genre known in "regular" books, from nonfiction to poetry to fiction www.kqed.org/mindshift/64... #EduSky #TLSky

I always used to share my learning and thinking during conferences using a conference hashtag. Is this what newer teachers are doing I wonder or has this gone by the wayside? #EduSky

WODB can be used in any subject area to: -encourage risk taking and critical thinking -help students support a theory with evidence #Hopesforschool

With out government pushung unproven ties between Tylenol, vaccines & autism, it’s clear that librarians & teachers must step up as trusted guides. #TLSky #EduSky open.substack.com/pub/aischool...

A great way to keep track of learning skills (most consistent) is to use Google Sheets and the dropdown menu. When I walk around to check student work, I use this method. Created a video tutorial in case you want to try it. youtu.be/hiO-KzNlp9Q #EduSky #Assessment

What an incredible provocation for your own students and conversations about the role of #AI and creativity

How can we help students move from being simply content consumers to being content creators? @edumatch.bsky.social Yes - I think they need to see creation modeled! Then have the space to play with it, and create themselves. @jcasatodd.bsky.social #EduMatch
