Censorship of motion pictures was enough of a concern in the early 1900s that The People's Institute issued a report, The Menace of Motion Picture Censorship, containing pointed political cartoons that serve as a rallying cry against censorship and aims to appeal to readers' sense of logic. #HR7661

A refreshing critique of Haidt's oft-cited tome that refers to an entire generation of youth as the anxious recipients of unregulated access to smartphones. "We’re not “anxious” just because of TikTok. Sometimes, the world is just objectively overwhelming — phones or not."

Learning requires friction. Good learning environments reduce unproductive friction. They also provide support so learners can work through productive friction. Using AI to remove all friction removes the learner from what is to be learned. Doing difficult things is entirely the point!

I spent a lot of time this semester explaining why it produces bad work but at the end of the day, they're being asked to do a thing they find difficult, and this makes it easy for them, without any meaningful consequence. And the university encourages them to use it.

Whilst pondering the space between the unsayable & "must be said" w/regards to the recent EOs... I offer this 🧵 on edu podcasts that promote the fullness of education flourishing in multiple forms - playful, silly, embodied, invitational, unsettled. (all produced at @teacherscollege.bsky.social)
