Shenanigans and smiles last night. We met Judd (author/cartoonist/Real World SF) and it great. Judd was friendly and warm and a wonderful conversationalist. Thank you @thewritewerther.bsky.social #NCTE25

Panicking about math, reading, and science scores while diverting resources to "AI in schools" is nonsensical, but here we are. The declines in scores began a decade ago with the influx of devices and edtech software into K-12 schools. It's not the only factor, but it is important.
