Hearing how other districts handle mentorship has given me so many ideas. I absolutely loved @edtechhawk.bsky.social and @abwitter.bsky.social ‘s session - their willingness to share their Everyday Brilliance is exactly why this community is so special. #TCEA2026 #TCEA #EduSky

Brain is full (in the best way). 🤯In a session on AI & Information Overload and my wheels are spinning. A big "aha!" ➡️ the more we see something the more we believe it is true - EVEN IF IT IS FALSE. What does this mean for our students?
