Kira Insider @Gregbagby said the part a lot of districts are feeling:
💡Having the data isn’t the same as knowing what to do next.
Because behind every number is a student.
Is this something you’re seeing too?

I've been waiting almost three years for what we're launching in @magicschoolai this week.
I once taught 7th grade social studies in Georgia. I was given a set of educational standards and no textbooks, curricular resources, or guide from the teacher before me to help my students master them. I was the only teacher in my school building teaching the subject, too.
This is the reality for more teachers than you might imagine. It's pretty rare that teachers get meaningful resources outside of core subjects like Math and English (and even those aren't guaranteed either).
I think I worked more hours than I ever have in my life during that year. Countless hours frankensteining content from the internet and whatever resources I could find. I aligned every lesson as well as I could to the standard and objective for the day.
My students were the top performing in the city schools on the state exam that year. I'm so deeply proud of that year, and also wouldn't wish that amount of work on anyone.
MagicSchool changes that calculus. This week, what we'll launch would have both saved me a ton of time as a social studies teacher and helped with student engagement in my classroom.
Stay tuned!
BREAKING: Anthropic just launched Claude for Teachers. Complete with education-specific skills built in partnership with teachers.
🇺🇸 Teachers in the US get a year free (including Claude Code and Cowork).
Claude for Teachers can connect to academic standards across all 50 states, along with curricula including Illustrative Mathematics and OpenSciEd.
There is a bigger battle going on here. OpenAI made ChatGPT free for US teachers in November. Google is putting Gemini into its classroom tools. Microsoft is training educators through Elevate. At this point, free access is not really generosity, but how these companies get their tools into the daily habits of schools.
Ask three questions.
1. What happens when the free year ends?
By then, teachers may have created hundreds of resources and built their routines around Claude. Moving away will not feel simple, even if the eventual price is high.
2. Who decides what data can be uploaded?
A FERPA compliant agreement does not answer every local question. Schools still need clear rules around student information, anonymisation and who is responsible for checking what the AI produces.
3. Do teachers actually get to keep the time they save?
Research suggests regular AI users can save close to six hours a week.
Great. But it means very little if leaders immediately fill those hours with extra work.
