Coming up with measurement techniques for student projects keeps the brain nimble.
Today it was number of turns of a vice to measure structural integrity of oyster shells.

I’m trying to make sense of a concept that is new to me, ‘Abductive Reasoning’, particularly in the science education space. Can this be successful translated from the academic world to chalk board?

AI detection tools are not the answer. Changing how we teach writing and what kids write about is. And if students know teachers are using the Revision History Chrome extension, that’s a huge deterrent. #EduSky #AIEdu
AI writing detectors aren’t the answer, says ELA teacher @jenroberts.bsky.social —they’re too unreliable. Here’s how she promotes (and checks for) authenticity in student work instead. 📝 #EduSkyAI
