Is your school wrestling with AI and cheating? A new @mindfulaiedu.bsky.social post encourages transparency over detection with 4 steps to try in your classroom. #EduSky #AIEdu #AIinEducation

Great point. Any decent promoter knows your work is rarely done after the 1st response. Narrowing and pushing back are key. This moves even novice users to better results. #AISky #EduSky

Details and lessons learned from a #Veo3 video I made over @mindfulaiedu.bsky.social #EduSky #AIEdu

Does a roomba clean your house perfectly? No. But is it better than not cleaning your house at all? For sure. Still think this is the right way to think about current AI tools for the foreseeable future, as productivity enhancers in domains that tolerate failure

I put Google's Veo 3 to the test. It did not disappoint. My video and a behind-the-scenes post on how I made it and what I learned about this potentially game-changing tool are below. #EduSky #AIEdu #AIinEducation

A new post over @mindfulaiedu.bsky.social on the cautionary tale and hope that updated AI videos reveal. If you are a teacher and you aren't thinking about AI Literacy, now is the time. #EduSky #AIEdu #AIinEducation

Is getting started with AI on your summer to-do list? Not sure where to begin? Everyone has to find their breakthrough moments. Maybe my journey can help you discover some useful AI possibilities. #EduSky #AIEdu From @mindfulaiedu.bsky.social: mindfulaiedu.substack.com/p/the-flashi...

“Writing is thinking” is true; I learn so much when I admit I need to rip up most of a draft. But in spite of building revision stages into assignments, I think I’ve rarely led students to grasp this for themselves in a writing course. It takes a long project they care about, like a thesis. 1/2

Tired of cobbling together exam questions from publisher banks and archive folders? There's a better way to dial in test questions. We have a new post over at @mindfulaiedu.bsky.social #AISky #AIEdu #EduSky

You could do a find/replace of "Google" and "Cellphone" for "AI" and this 2006 article would still be relevant in 2025. "No, the problem is not cheating. The problem is firmly one of instructional and evaluation technique." #EduSky #AIEdu

All good ideas for classroom AI integration from @edutopia.org. Most are scalable for different grade levels. #EduSky #AIEdu #AIinEducation www.edutopia.org/article/5-en...

All teachers should read this

Fantastic example. I love voice transcription! And I particularly like what you said here about not “working less” but aiming for greater impact

I don't know that this saved me any time, but students got so much more individualized feedback than I ever could have generated on my own. Sometimes AI isn't about working less—it's about impact per hour invested 💪 🕰️. #EduSky #AIEdu #AIinEducation mindfulaiedu.substack.com/p/what-happe...

Have you used AI for grading? Follow these steps to give it a try, boost feedback, and reclaim time. Just keep humans at the center & remember AI is a tool to support—not replace—our professional judgment. #EduSky #AiEDU #EdTech mindfulaiedu.substack.com/p/is-ai-the-...

ChatGPT Gave Me Chills – Should I be concerned? 😊😲😨 Part of a recent ongoing conversation I've been having with ChatGPT where I've been giving it articles I want to have together in a knowledge base on using AI in education gave me chills. #AIEdu #AIinEdu #EduSky educatoral.com/wordp...#AIEdu#AIinEdu

🎙️ Our 2nd @mindfulaiedu.bsky.social podcast episode dropped today. We dig into what intentional and effective AI use looks like for one of our students, and his @flintk12.bsky.social tool that is now one of the company's most popular templates. #EduSky #AIEdu #AIinEducation #EdTech

These findings largely mirror what I am seeing when AI is used intentionally, with purpose, and with expanding learning in mind, not just taking shortcuts. Are you seeing any of this in your classroom? #AIEdu #EduSky #AI

Pope Leo points to AI and the "new challenges for the defence of human dignity, justice and labour" it creates. Leo XIII pushed for fair pay and treatment of workers during the industrial revolution. We've got important work to do to keep humans and their dignity at the center of progress.

A new meta-analysis of 51 studies on ChatGPT in education found that AI can significantly improve learning outcomes. A 🧵 on what the analysis suggests. #EduSky #AIEdu #AIinEducation #EdTech www.nature.com/articles/s41...

This paper confirms my belief that figuring out how to effectively employ LLMs at scale in education is one of the most important research problems of the day (and no, the answer is not “replace teachers with AI”) Huge potential returns, and the worst case use of AI is already happening in schools.

🚀 SOMEWHERE IN THE EDUCATIONAL WASTELAND, THE AI TOOK HOLD. Students burning through assignments at supernatural speeds. Until one said: "That AI tutor made me THINK HARDER." What madness! A tool that SLOWS the mind? We need CONTROLLED WEIRDNESS—AI for the scenic route. #EduSKy #EduSkyAI #EdTech

For anyone who sees AI as only a text generation tool, you've got to look deeper to see that there is so much more. Maybe even thousands of years deeper 🔎. #AI #EduSky #AiEdu news.artnet.com/art-world/ai...

Lots of dialogue about this article in the last few days, and tons to process. But I think it is a painfully clear sign we have to make big changes to how we teach. 🧵 #EduSky #AIEdu #AI nymag.com/intelligence...

Great take on this thread. Yes, LLMs can write for you. And they can do so much more. If all you see is an essay farm, there’s so much more to discover.

Denying that AI is a useful tool & refusing to use it gives "I used a free chatbot a year ago & it made a bunch of errors" vibes. It's here & improving exponentially. AI is being integrated into every facet of our work & our lives Denial doesn't help us prepare for what's coming for our jobs.

This is the drum I’m beating, and will continue to beat, about AI and education. Doubling down on blue book exams is not the answer. Burying our heads in the sand is not the answer. Flowery op-eds about humans > machines are not the answer. We need to rethink and reframe what/how we teach. Period.

Have you seen the Say What you See activity in Google Arts and Culture? It's a great warm up activity to learn about AI image prompting: artsandculture.google.com/experiment/s... #EduSky #AISky shared via @jasontries.bsky.social #GoogleEI

I continue to see versions of this tired anti-AI talking point that 'AI isn't a search engine.' It's just not accurate anymore. And if you've Googled anything lately (which no one claims isn't a search engine), you'll be met with AI results. Let's move on to more important debates about AI use.

"It’s not a vending machine. It’s a super learning assistant. If it understands you and your preferences, everything gets better." Solid perspective from a Cal Poly student, and a link to a tool he built for custom instructions. #AISky #EduSky #AIEdu edunewsletter.openai.com/p/a-student-...

My own experience is hardly complete data, but I have done much more this school year than in previous years. Between 2 kids and outside activities, it isn't like I have tons of extra hours I can use to work. It is because AI has allowed me to be much more productive AND connect more with people.

This is good advice about bad advice. There are soooo many better ways to use AI than worksheets. Worksheets won’t revolutionize anything. #FrigginPackets #AiEdu

Incidentally, this is why I worry about the dominant position of AI critics on this site that "AI doesn't work and is just a scam" It absolutely does work, in good ways (controlled studies on education, medicine) and in ways that create risks & problems. Pretending AI isn't real is a big mistake.

"Is it that we should continue teaching the same stuff that we do now, even though it is solvable by AI, just because it is good for the students' cognitive health? Or is it that ... we should instead focus on these high-level questions that might not be immediately solvable using AI? #EduSky #AiSky

OpenAI's new image generator in ChatGPT-4o has passed my mood meter test. Teachers no longer have to settle for one they find online that's not quite right for their classroom. ChatGPT can generate holiday/topic mood meters kids will love. oftechandlearning.com/chatgpt-pass... #EduSky #AiEDU

Teaching AI Ethics is the role of educators. Students don't need us to tell them how to use ChatGPT - they can learn that from TikTok. leonfurze.com/2025/04/23/t... #ArtificialIntelligence #AIEducation #AIEdu #AIInEd #AIInEdu #AIEthics Image: Clarote & AI4Media / betterimagesofai.org

This is a great mindset. Obviously there are negative possibilities. Let’s champion the pro-kid possibilities too. Like what if this actually revolutionizes education for the better? It may not for all sorts of reasons. But what if it did? #EduSkyAI #EduSky

I’ve heard from 4 new companies in just the last week. This is super important since there are only going to be more rushing into the competition for the foreseeable future. You put kids and teachers at the center, so your AI partner companies should too. #EduSky #AiEdu #EduSkyAI

This was helpful. Also worth noting that Bluesky remains a very fraught place for AI discussions for a variety of reasons, good & bad, but with the impact of keeping a lot of the most relevant AI news, paper discussions & biggest names on X That might change, but it hasn’t yet. Still posting, tho.
