I feel like when we say AI we need to clarify. It’s a really big broad umbrella just like when we say the Internet.

There are safe, approved platforms that are geared towards students which is where I think we should begin. Not just throwing them out into the wild wild west of AI.

I agree with the author that we need to teach students how to use AI l, but I like how Matt Miller talks about transparency and having the students hand in and identify what was done with AI. And of course, with parameters and directing them to approved, safe, AI sites.

I enjoyed this tough conversation with Paige! Read her article. What are we getting wrong? What are we getting right? How can we fix what’s wrong? Great article!

AI is a huge umbrella!
AI that is embedded in platforms that we trust & have signed privacy agreements, then it is appropriate when monitored & guidelines have been established.

When managed effectively, it is a tool that students have to learn how to use appropriately! Just like the Internet.

“In my high school special education classroom, I like to recognize students’ effort in the lead-up to final outcomes. Not in a vague ‘You tried your best’ sort of way—more so appreciating the intentional choices that help students push ahead. For the last half-decade or so, I’ve called these small wins ‘the moves that mattered.’” —Donna Phillips, Educator

Donna explains how to give students time and confidence to build their metacognition skills: edut.to/46Ut3Oq

“It’s easy to make a mistake-friendly classroom when you show students the value of mistakes in learning,” says teacher @cathleenbeachbd.bsky.social 🌟

Here’s an activity she uses to help create a mistake-friendly classroom.

My 21yo unemployed daughter has already spent hundreds of dollars getting her first classroom ready for her students. Any help you can provide by gifting items off her wish list would be greatly appreciated!! tinyurl.com/2s39kfp9

Congratulations, Allison Conlon for winning the WSBOCES Technology Integration Award for using @KamiApp with her 3rd graders. They used Kami math exit tickets and she had her students record their answer explanations giving Allison greater insight to their understanding! Great job!💜

What Teachers Should Know About Dysgraphia. Signs to look out for and evidence-based ways to help kids who struggle with writing. By Youki Terada.

Dysgraphia can look like messy handwriting, but it’s a lot more than that and can be a serious obstacle to academic success for some students.

Do you know what to look for and how to help kids who struggle with writing?

This has been in the works since January, but I’m excited to share that tomorrow I start working for Kami as a Teaching and Learning Coordinator for the next 6 months!!

Thank you! It’s an easy way to personalize and empower students.

Thank you, @iamdrwill.bsky.social, for writing Edupreneur! 🍏
It is truly helping me transition from educator to edtech consultant; the guidance has been invaluable. And TY for my shirt!

Thank you!! (I won’t tell her that). I am so proud of her. She has worked so hard. This young lady has been through more in her life than most adults. I am one proud mama.

As I retire from 32 yrs in education, I’m passing the torch🍎to my daughter who is starting her career teaching 4th gr - just like I did!

She’s wanted to be a teacher since she was little.

If you’d like to help her get started, here’s her wishlist❤️:

When your friends write children’s books, you buy them for your daughter’s future classroom! Love these!!

Does anyone in my PLN have any contacts in VA (Richmond area)? I have a very talented young lady looking for a position as a music teacher. @eduguardian5.bsky.social #edusku #musicteachers
