How is tech reshaping schools and leadership? Exploring answers as a Boston College professor and practicing Zen Buddhist. I co-organize the Mindful Leadership Circle, an online meditation group for educators in K-12 and higher ed.
The Mindful Leadership Circle is a meditation community for educators in K-12 and higher ed. We meet biweekly on Saturdays. Our new website includes a link for signing up! sites.google.com/view/mindful...

How might communication apps build stronger school-family partnerships? In our study, ClassDojo's features helped teachers connect with families—especially multilingual ones—in ways that felt personal, immediate, and more equitable drive.google.com/file/d/1tKGQ... #edtech

When #AI attacked our #edresearch, we fought back, learning a lot about what works and doesn't work to avoid future attacks and weed out AI respondents. Now published! scholarworks.waldenu.edu/jerap/vol15/...

I have to say my favorite #AI tool right now isn't a chatbot (e.g., ChatGPT; Claude; Gemini). It's Aqua Voice. I can dictate notes, emails, or whatever, and the punctuation and caps get filled in. It's not as assistive as "Dragon Naturally Speaking," but you can actually speak naturally.

So the Trump tariff plan was probably made by an LLM -- with some common misunderstandings that LLMs have about tariffs www.theverge.com/news/642620/... #AI
Trump’s new tariff math looks a lot like ChatGPT’s
ChatGPT may be the White House’s latest economic advisor.

My 8th grader is stressed because she's a few points away from getting recommended to whatever pathway leads to calculus in 12 grade. But the town says it's all real simple, see? PS - The people who enrolled their kids in Russian Math years ago make this system even more inequitable.

Democrats need to flip 3 seats this spring (special elections) to take back the US House. 2 are already scheduled for April 1 in FL. The candidates are Josh Weil & Gay Valimont. Maybe Medicaid cuts will give FL voters some buyers remorse?
