The question shifts from: “Can AI do this?” to “How would/did you use AI, and why?” www.ajjuliani.com/blog/a-guide...

Here’s your annual reminder: If there is a microphone, USE IT! #accessibilitymatters 🎤

For the record: 10-hour workdays are just not it.

Project-based learning is complicated, and making sure students are learning the content and skills connected to the unit is no small feat. This team of teachers uses a learning map to keep everyone on track. 🗺️ #PBL #ElementaryTeacher #EduSky

College Uncovered: The Revenge of the Humanities

Do people in other professions go through life accumulating “forever colleagues” (the people you don’t actually work with anymore but you collaborate like you still do)? Or is that just an educator thing?

I’m determined to be at least conversational in Spanish… so here we are. @duolingoverde.bsky.social
