If I have to explain to you why it's a bad idea to use a machine that makes shit up 15-80% of the time AND destroys the environment AND contributes to rising fascism and genocide AND puts brilliant skillful creatives out of work by stealing their work, then we're already speaking different languages

I’m re-reading @susandblum.bsky.social’s Ungrading.

It shaped some of my practices, but more my thinking. With the addition LMM/AI, I’m ready for a sequel by the same or different authors.

I need remote thought partners. I process by reading and writing.

Just read this gem from @blakeharvard.bsky.social! I offer choice summer PD for my team of IB teachers and this will be on this year’s list.

This body of knowledge isn’t taught at most SOE. Looking forward to using this tool to incrementally shape the culture of learning in classrooms at my school.

It is in the wild for review! @nortonpsych.bsky.social hit it out of the park with @notawfuljess.bsky.social

With @bmorling.bsky.social’s research methods book, this will certainly help me grow as an #IBpsychology teacher!

While critical windows have different contexts, this iterative process is challenging in school. The cognitive load of doing this work as an adult with a family and full time job will be overwhelming, as well as impossible.
The Present Bias of students using ChatGPT to write: it's not just "it's easier now, but someday you'll wish you had worked on your writing." Once you're out of school it's nearly impossible to a good writer to read what you've written, let alone to teach you how to make it better.
