Is AI transforming education? Absolutely.

But, it is transforming every industry. The jobs of the future will all require a skillset that involves leveraging various forms of AI. Preparing our students to fill those roles is critical.

For the last 9 years, Paper has had an unwavering focus on supporting students. Years ago we started to focus on the ways that new technology can be supporting students, teachers, schools, and their communities. Our approach to AI has always been driven by the impact and benefits it can provide to students.

Recently our co-founder and CTO @rob_cipriani penned a piece that highlights our student-centric approach to AI.

We have 4 key areas of focus:
- Student Safety
- Pedagogical Integrity
- Optimize for Impact
- Human-in-the-loop

Congrats to all my fellow Aggies that received their rings. One of the coolest moments I've been able to experience. Incredible feeling when you put on that Aggie Gold.

One of the craziest months of the year for Educators is March! #TestingSeason arrives, and #MarchMadness consumes the minds of many. Thankfully, @paperlearning is here to support!

PS - your bracket has already been busted if you don't have Texas A&M winning it all. #GigEm

At @paperlearning , I love knowing I'm playing a role in improving the educational experience for students, despite no longer being in the classroom. Hearing this message at the JCPS SOD a couple of weeks ago was just another reminder! #Thankful

Gamechanger for teachers. Finally, they can confidently disconnect at the end of each day and on weekends!

Hear it straight from the students who use Paper, “I used it when I saw the announcement in Canvas and got help in algebra at home,” said a New Caney 12th grader. “I love that my school is providing this service.” Read more student reactions: https://t.co/hsz5Ow0Gdy #education

@JordanPrizant @paperlearning Incredibly well-deserved! Congrats, my man

[Jacob Rooney @JacobR_Paper]

@WeinsteinEdu I never assigned homework when teaching. We would cover/complete it the next day if it couldn't fit during class.

Teachers don't want admin sending them home with additional work, so I never understood why it was so prevalent to do it to our students.

[Jacob Rooney @JacobR_Paper]

As the year winds down, I wanted to ensure I took the time to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a blessed holiday season! See you all in 2023!
