"If a task can be completed instantly by a tool, students need a stronger reason to engage with the learning process. Teachers therefore need to design lessons where the value is ... in the thinking, discussion, drafting, reflection and explanation that lead to it." -> readysetcompute.com/aistay/

"So many of our assessments depend on the idea that we control the information ecosystem our students live in. We just don’t." Food for thought from @davecormier.bsky.social -> A human centered model for discussing AI in assessment – Dave’s Educational Blog davecormier.com/edblog/2026/...

"Complexity, properly understood, ... is the navigation of genuine uncertainty, the wayshaping of conditions rather than the prescription of outcomes." A quote (of sort) from a read I want to remember: thecynefin.co/edgar-morin-...

A typical European car is parked 92% of the time. It spends 1/5th of its driving time looking for parking. Its 5 seats only move 1.5 people. 86% of its fuel never reaches the wheels, and most of the energy that does, moves the car, not the people. Sound efficient? HT @ellenmacarthurfdn.bsky.social

Padlet is testing its own collection of AI assistance tools for teachers, called Padlet TA. It’s in beta at ta.padlet.com, free to use, and doesn’t require a login.

A3. Great colleagues and awesome students. Most days don't really feel like work. #eduskychat

A1. When you live overseas breaks often involve flying. For me the transition is that moment when I have cleared security and have nothing to do but hang out and look forward to seeing family again. #eduskychat

A1. Hi everyone. I am a Design teacher at an International School in Bangkok. Many moons ago loved connecting on the other platform. Excited to be doing so again here. #eduskychat

I talk about the environment as one of 9 teachable ethical concerns with AI in this (open access resources) series: leonfurze.com/ai-ethics/

Is anyone teaching students about environmental impact of AI? This has me more worried than plagiarism. -> "Globally, AI-related infrastructure may soon consume six times more water than Denmark, a country of 6 million, according to one estimate." www.unep.org/news-and-sto... #EduSky #AIinEdu

Resist the Machine Apocolypse www.firstthings.com/article/2024... About the dangers of giving left brain thinking too much power. Made me think.

Reading The Good Ancestor www.romankrznaric.com/good-ancestor and thinking about how to encourage long term thinking. Ironically my marshmallow brain used the Buy Now Button to purchase the kindle version :-)

With BlueSky finally opening up federation, I think it's time to write up something that explains the whole thing, BlueSky, atproto, the works, in one easy to find place. Just the high level bits, hopefully something that any developer can understand: steveklabnik.com/writing/how-...
