AI shouldn’t be a "digital crutch". Instead of providing passive answers, we need AI to force retrieval practice and bridge the "Performance Trap" in K-12. Read more about the "I Learned, So I Ask" Method! #EdTech #AIinEducation #LearningScience

Is your AI lying to you just to be polite? We’ve all been there: you suggest a "creative" idea to a chatbot, and it showers you with praise. But in the classroom, this "flattery trap" is a quiet disaster for critical thinking. Don’t let your AI be a "Yes-Man." #edtech #AI

Moms agree: AI in schools needs a "safety first" approach. A new report from "Count on Mothers" reveals a rare cross-partisan consensus. Parents want their kids career-ready, but not at the expense of privacy, safety, and "analog" fundamentals #edtech #ai

Is "frictionless" learning a mistake? Neuroscience suggests we need "cognitive friction" to truly learn, yet a total tech blackout ignores the reality of 2026. The goal: use analog foundations to stay the master of the machine, not its servant #edtech #neuroscience

Analog vs. Digital is a false binary. A notebook is a tool for reflection; a tablet is a tool for creation. We don't need to ban the tech - we need to reclaim the pedagogy. #edtech #screentime
