I was afraid to read this but couldn't help myself. I wonder this constantly with my own kids: what is the force that could possibly convince them that their own story, told their own way, is more important than anything else? #ai #literacy #higher-ed
One line of work that appears to be growing in this economy: "AI humanization." "Unlike original writing, which shows us what we can do, AI-generated words show us what we refuse to do," writes Kate Gilbertson, discomfited to find herself in this "morally murky role." slate.com/technology/2...
Some of us grew up thinking identity was a %'age. Kids today are showing us it’s a landscape. New #NoSuchThingPod with Sangita Shresthova @sangitas.bsky.social on cross‑cultural parenting, media as connective tissue, + the new shape of belonging. 🎧 tinyurl.com/fk3n7ef Boost if it resonates.

Students cannot learn when they are afraid for their safety or the safety of their families, friends, and educators. Tell Congress to keep ICE out of schools, churches, and hospitals. 👉 https://bit.ly/49pXHQU

“We’re debugging the system—because equity in CS doesn’t come from perfct plans. It comes from trying, failing, and trying again.” On #NoSuchThingPod, Diane Levitt of @cornelltech.bsky.social on debugging the effort to scale #CSEducation🎧 embed.acast.com/5985c925950a...
I really like this study of the reasons college students move from one STEM major to another, particularly its focus on both the attractive aspects of the new major AND their disenchantments with their old major. Both parts are important. #PsychSciSky #AcademicSky #EduSky doi.org/10.1037/edu0...

By a 2–1 vote, the 11th Circuit holds that trans teachers in Florida have NO First Amendment right to use their preferred pronouns at school. I’m starting to wonder if conservative judges are applying the First Amendment fairly to our public school system … media.ca11.uscourts.gov/opinions/pub...
