CSI Progressive era unit is going awesome! Our 1st case L.Hine ended with a trial for children's rights! Second case: Upton Sinclair and immigration of the early 1900s. If you want details to do this for your class, hit me up! Happy to share! #teachingwithpurpose

There’s much discussion about AI detection tools & the challenges of #GenAI in education. Instead of focusing on misuse I’ve been exploring ways to ethically and effectively integrate AI to enhance learning.🎧 blog.heinemann.com/podcast-gene... I’d love to hear your thoughts. #edtech #edusky #AIWW

What do you think about having learning intentions and success criteria visible at all times and going back to it during a lesson being part of teacher observation and evaluation from admins? #edusky #askedusky

I designed a little "for funsies" inference activity called The cookie case" kids play along finding evidence to support their case on who took the cookies. They later present their findings. Cookies are given at the end of the class for everyone. Hit the dm for the link!

"At some point, OpenAI will charge their actual costs" is a pretty good reason why educators and school administrators should refuse to institutionalize OpenAI's tools and the ed-tech products that use OpenAI - and other generative AI too!
The AI boom - and the tech industry - has oriented itself around generative AI, a tech with diminishing returns that costs billions to run with no path to profitability. At some point, OpenAI will charge their actual costs and gut this entire industry.

1/5 A key point about #AI that often gets overlooked: Human expertise is *essential* for evaluating AI output. I can quickly spot when AI translations are off in English, but I'd be lost evaluating Spanish translations since I don't speak it. #EduSky #AIinEducation #AcademicSky

Teachers, administrators, curriculum directors, coaches: read the whole thread!
I think we're probably underestimating the degree of change that will need to happen in education to deal with the presence of GenAI/LLMs. The studies I've read that show positive efficacy for LLM integration tend to measure that efficacy against what I call "schooling," rather than learning.

So...I have this idea of unpacking my whole Humanities unit (6 weeks) on the Progressive era as one giant CSI case🤔. Any pointers you might have? Audience will be 6th graders. #askedusky
