#ATEE2025 I shared this key message:
👩‍🏫 Teachers shouldn’t just use tech — they should create with it.
⚠️ AI brings risks of cognitive blindness when outputs are taken at face value.
📚 RAG grounds AI in real sources, helping us see both strengths & limits.

Schools are not prepared to address the challenges to use AI. #EDEN25

Delivered my keynote today at #MASS25:
“What Does GenAI Promise—and Conceal—in Education?”
“The real issue isn’t whether to use GenAI—but how it transforms education.”
#GenAI #AIinEducation #Ethics #DigitalLearning #STEM #MIC @stem-mic.bsky.social

Bugün #MASS25’te “GenAI Eğitimde Ne Vaat Ediyor, Ne Gizliyor?” başlıklı davetli konuşmamı yaptım.
“Mesele GenAI’yi kullanmak değil, onun öğrenmenin doğasını nasıl değiştirdiğini anlamak.”

Peer review isn’t just a badge — it’s a responsibility to question, push, and raise the bar.
