Occasionally in life, we have that chance to tick something off our bucket lists. This was one of those moments for me.

The Chatbot Experience: 5 Ways to know if you are chatting with a human or a robot.

I wish I had had these tactics at my disposal earlier tonight: had a most dissatisfying conversation with an 'agent' on a food delivery app. 99% sure it was an AI instance...

How are you addressing critical thinking in the age of AI?

My colleague & I created this quick 15min PL for teachers on the need of shifting instruction to process over product. Students can use AI as a thought partner and teachers don't have to see it as the enemy.

You’d be very much in the leading/innovating space…

Indeed, GenAI, either conversational or ‘reasoning’

This image serves as a reminder about social media sharing on Bluesky. It features a blue sky background with white clouds and a bold heading reading "REMINDER" accompanied by an exclamation mark in a red circle. The text emphasizes: Bluesky's algorithm is not based on capitalism, so it works differently. Engagement operates differently compared to other platforms. While likes are good, reposting boosts visibility. To support the community, repost content you resonate with to increase its visibility. The message is designed to encourage users to engage through reposting for greater community impact.

Just a reminder that BlueSky works a bit differently. If something resonates with you be sure to repost to let others know it is agreat idea! While likes are great, reposting highlights great ideas for the communities we are building. #TLSky #EduSky #KidLit #Skybrarian #Edtech #Education

Charles Fadel also advocates "... for a comprehensive redesign of curricula worldwide, focusing on four dimensions: Knowledge, Skills, Character, and Meta-Learning", which would require a curriculum redesign.

Thanks Jon - I was asked in a workshop by an English teacher: "I teach writing communication skills, such as writing letters and emails etc. Now that AI can do this for people, should I teach kids this skill?"

More From the Fence: Articles For and Against AI in Education A few weeks ago I wrote an article explaining why I’m still on the fence with AI, and refuse to tip entirely into either refusal or full adoption. In this post, I’m pulling together som…

Learn how to use AI, learn when to refuse AI, and be excellent to each other.

Here's a question for you: Should we teach something if AI (or technology) has made the content or context redundant? What should we keep, what might we abandon?

Looking forward to co-hosting Session 4 (of 4) with @leeannelavender.bsky.social in PeerSphere's AI in the Classroom community in a few hours. We are delving into how AI is impacting on assessment through a few different lenses.

What is one question or problem you have in this context?

Screenshot of ChatGPT's roast on Andrew

For a bit of fun, especially for those who have been interacting with ChatGPT for some time (building up a history): Ask ChatGPT to roast you on what it knows about you. Amusing, and (scarily) specific for me...

Love Craig’s work on an authentic mechanism for teacher growth.

It actually works! Drop a David Mayer hidden watermark in your assignments #aieducation

My guess is that someone at OpenAI will fix it - back in August ChatGPT famously could not correctly count the number of Rs in strawberry. Now it does.

Maybe it was someone whose name is actually David Mayer? I tried my first name and Mayer, and it worked...

Strange anomaly

Interesting but not entirely useful (unless your name is David Mayer. It seems that ChatGPT struggles to write this name. Is this the same for you?

Indeed, loads of lean in here.

All teachers are teachers of language. Every discipline has specialized vocabulary. You may not be the “English teacher” but you are still teaching academic vocabulary, writing forms, morphology, and comprehension skills. #OntEd #EduSky

Brené Brown: What we know matters, but who we are matters more."

Finally, some sanity that sorts out the disaster that is X (notice how everyone still calls them tweets?). Looking forward to learning from and contributing to the education community here!
