Many educators believe personal sacrifice is part of the job, so using tech to lighten the load can feel wrong.

But what if the opposite is true?

From our co-host @shaunlangevin.bsky.social ...

Some lessons can’t be downloaded, and somebody should tell Bill Gates:

Data will never replace trust, care, or human connection.

Let’s continue to shape the future of education. AI in the loop, teachers in charge.
