A7 #ElemMathChat I am curious if anyone has research that shows putting students in front of a computer improves their math learning? Is this improvement classroom wide? I have yet to see strong research that, when closely scrutinized, demonstrates strong improvements in student learning.

A6 - #ElemMathChat. Instead of saying no one can use it, try to orchestrate ways for students to be able to see how it can be a partner in their problem solving process.

#ElemMathChat Yet it feels like some people are trying. Nothing replaces a teacher who can engage a room full of students!

A5 - Our brains filter information, asking, 'What's in it for me?' Math learning is similar: if students know tech can do a task, they may disengage, especially if they’re struggling. But focusing on real-world applications and allowing tech use could increase engagement, making math feel relevant.

Very cool idea. Input a bunch of examples. Explain what each of the problem strings is hoping to accomplish.
AI requires a little bit of training.
Very cool idea. #ElemMathChat

I agree with allowing students to use calculators when we are asking students to do problem solving in math class.
Indeed , take off the cognitive load.

A2 -Humans uniquely understand context, identify meaningful problems, and make ethical decisions. In math, they decide which tools and strategies apply to complex issues. Creativity, empathy, and adaptability are human strengths that AI can't replicate, even as it excels in data and task automation.

A2 - In math, humans excel at identifying the problems to solve, setting up calculations, and knowing which tools can help achieve solutions. Originality, creativity, flexibility, ethical judgment, and emotional depth remain human strengths, while AI excels in data processing and automation.

ChatGPT is amazing at summarizing my stream on consciousness thoughts.

Hey T.J.! Great to see you here. I hope you are well!

Jay in Vermont. As we talk about AI, I will be posting some answers written by ChatGPT. Some answers will be written exclusively by me. See if you can tell which one is which.
