We know that AI can save teachers a lot of time in generating ideas for lessons but we must also remember to pay attention to how it presents the content. @DrEvilAcademic and I elaborate in our latest article.

🤖NEW BLOG🤖 Can ChatGPT Create a Thoughtful Lesson Plan? by Chris Clark & @DrEvilAcademic: https://t.co/xwmAn0vY5E

Chris & Cat test ChatGTP��s ability to write a thoughtful lesson plan about MLK. They made ChatGTP resubmit the assignment quite a few times...

[Christopher Clark @CCcivics]

@DrEvilAcademic and I bugged ChatGPT until it gave us a lesson plan that we liked. We talk about that experience here. https://t.co/Tl7fp8N3Sp

In civic education, I often feel like I'm swimming upstream against many trouble social and political forces. This article provides a small ray of sunshine, illustrating that some pedagogies (especially service learning) are correlated with reductions in affective polarization.

I like that UND is highlighting my study on teachers' choices of news resources, but I like the picture they chose even more.

[UND Education & Human Development @UNDEducation]

According to a recent study co-authored by Assistant Professor Christopher Clark, social studies teachers across the country are bringing more bias into the classroom than they might realize.

Remember @cybermardi and @HJamesGarrett and me? We're back, in blog form.

[Harvard Education Press @Harvard_Ed_Pub]

In the Voices in Education blog, @CCcivics, @cybermardi, & @HJamesGarrett write that teachers need more support to understand "how their ideology shapes their thinking about news media as they make decisions about including the news in their classrooms." https://t.co/YNvB8fVg4q

[Christopher Clark @CCcivics]

Sounds like a smart, good-looking group of authors.
