The idea that technology, like AI, deskills us is not a surprise. I learned cursive at school, my father learned how to use a slide rule. Neither skill is widely mourned.

What is important is whether we will make deliberate choices about what skills to keep & which they will be.

@akoustov This is the way.

Behind every data point is a human being.

At SXSW Edu and it’s a steady stream of micro credentials, workforce training, future ready gibberish. No event has acknowledged AI agents exist or how agentic tools call into question the validity of certifying anything digitally right now. People have ignored AI developments.

[Scott Gregory ✏️ @TheSFGabides]

@twlvone @PerellClips Exactly. The mentioned “prompt” is vague and as a result, the result is unimpressive. Summarize critically? Summarize unconventionally? The quality of what you receive is positional to the quality of what you enter in the first place.

Today we announced a landmark, three-year initiative with @ISTE_ASCD to provide comprehensive Gemini training to all 6 million K-12 and higher-education faculty in the U.S. Rolling out in the coming months, @GoogleForEdu will offer educators training on how to safely and thoughtfully use our suite of AI tools — including NotebookLM. It’s the largest initiative of its kind, designed to help over 74 million students thrive in an AI-infused world.

@emollick I agree, the author is barking up the wrong tree with about half of this.

The technology & buildings change, but the passion for teaching never does. These future teachers had a great visit to the Plymouth schoolhouse on campus. #TigerTeacherNation

[Scott Gregory ✏️ @TheSFGabides]

@Marc__Watkins If it wasn’t phones, it would be something else. People don’t bend to the gadget-the gadget bends to our attention.

It is epistemically cheap and socially safe to be an AI skeptic or hater.

[Scott Gregory ✏️ @TheSFGabides]

This is a top tier product and their safety and privacy provisions are tight. Admin & teachers can use this with ease. And no, they don’t pay me.

True, but kindergarten is the German translation of “children’s garden” & likened to a garden where they bloom in discovery and awareness. Thank you Friedrich Frobel.

[APStylebook @APStylebook]

The T in kindergarten and kindergartners trips up some people. It's not kindergarden, even if it might feel logical that little ones are growing there.
Capitalize the K in pre-K and K-12.

Has reading for pleasure decreased? No, the format in which it occurs has changed.

@emollick Doesn’t fit the doomer narrative.

The Opportunities through Education LLC is underway at @FHSUteachered @jochumcj Tiger Teachers lead the way. 🐅

I really hope folks wake up and understand how far generative AI has gone beyond ChatGPT. This is technology your students are using regardless of your course policy on AI. Talk to your students about it. Please.
