“Universities are not victims, nor are they powerless. It is time for universities to rediscover their mission and voice as public institutions operating for the public good. Above all, we need to return students to the centre of everything we do.” https://t.co/lnxizo2geB

When the Intellectual Vibrator Meets the Didactic Flashlight 🤖💡
A provocative look at what school could really be in the AI age
-----
Picture this: The student brings their “intellectual vibrator” — ChatGPT — and generates a perfectly crafted essay. The teacher pulls out their “didactic flashlight” — another LLM — and evaluates the work.
The machines perform the academic act. The text gets written, the text gets graded. And no human ever really touches the idea behind it.
What a liberation!
What are teachers and students freed from?
From the performance of schooling. From pretending that this dance of essay-writing and grading has anything to do with learning or teaching. They’re freed from:
- Rigid rituals
- Assessment anxiety
- The illusion that comma placement equals education
- Mechanical grinding through tasks
The academic machinery is handled by machines.
But what’s left then?
A possibility. A real conversation.
Not about comma rules or whether ChatGPT fabricated a source, but about the IDEA behind the project. About the WHY behind the topic choice. About what it means to the student. About what it triggers in the teacher. About what actually matters.
The revolution lies in the human
After 12+ years as a teacher, I’ve experienced it myself: We’ve lost ourselves in a system that prioritizes compliance over creativity. Assessment over relationship. Performance over personality.
Maybe the AI age is our first real chance in a long time to actually speak again. Let the machines handle the mechanical work while we finally get to ask:
“Who are you, really?”
“What moves you?”
“How do you see the world?”
“What do you want to create?”
The future of education is radically human
While AI takes over routine tasks, we can finally focus on what machines will never become:
- Igniting genuine curiosity🔥
- Shaping courageous hearts❤️
- Building authentic relationships 🤝
- Turning dreams into reality ✨
My call to all education rebels:
Let’s create schools that don’t suffocate but ignite. Places where curiosity isn’t an obligation but a natural force. Where kids don’t sink into apathy but radiate joy energy — alive, creative, and free.
It’s time to bid farewell to the 200-year-old system and finally build what our world needs: Adaptive Learning Ecosystems for an unpredictable future.

💭 What do you think? Is it time for machines to handle the mechanical so we can finally focus on the human?
🚀 Let’s empower a generation together to shape the world with curiosity, courage, and responsibility.

Educator friends using #AI in course design—how do you explain responsible AI use to students in a way that’s clear but not intimidating? #EdAI#DigitalCitizenship
Fellow instructional designers: What’s your favorite low-tech but high-impact student engagement strategy? I’m currently building a virtual module for college students and want to center real-world problem solving. #InstructionalDesign#HigherEd#EdTech
What’s something that’s missing in education for teaching languages to students? Is it sticky apps? AI enhanced software? Better learning materials? Personalizations?
So much of "AI in EdTech" is just a fancier, faster way to get the wrong answer.
The real innovation isn't in answer-generation; it's in augmenting proven pedagogical frameworks. A thread 🧵👇
How should we measure success? By the quality of the AI's answers, or the quality of the student thinking it provokes?
The current model is failing. We must start measuring metacognition.
@GiftedTawk I do not think it is impolite; I think it is NECESSARY! As the teacher, being able to take the seat of the student can be immensely powerful when it comes to informing your own teaching practices.

Instructional designers, you know the drill: #SMEs are brilliant… and busy 😅
So how do you keep projects on track without overwhelming them?
Dan Gorgone, our #InstructionalDesign expert, shares 4 tips to make SME collaboration easier (and a lot less stressful):
1️⃣ Keep the focus clear: Share one next step at a time and avoid overloading them.
2️⃣ Bundle your feedback: Collect all notes in one clear message, not scattered updates.
3️⃣ Communicate time sensitivity: If something’s urgent, say so. Clear timelines help SMEs prioritize.
4️⃣ Be professional (and personable): Respect their expertise, but guide the project with confidence.
AI is giving learning and development teams the tools to deliver the modular, personalized learning experiences employees want. Learn how AI is making learning design and delivery more scalable while improving quality.

Another tuition hike while U.S. student debt tops $1.7T. How is that progress? Education should lift, not weigh down. @UoPeople proves another way: no tuition, global access, online flexibility. 200+ countries learning without debt. Repost if you agree. #HigherEd#StudentDebt
