3/3 Looking forward to the next phase as students engage in Real World Problem Solving as they consider possibilities of AI for learning and for all students. @HDSB_TheShift @HaltonDSB #IThinkChallenge #HDSB_TheShift #onted #100ClassroomChallenge

High school students in @HaltonDSB have been working on @IThinkTogether AI Challenge. Today they'll be presenting their recommendations for their board on how to use AI to enhance learning. Can't wait to see their presentations! @HDSB_TheShift

Thank you for your nuanced response and for your research. Haidts book is anything but nuanced. Also see the work of @Livingstone_S #medialiteracy

I guess @AJEnglish would have reported on so called elections in the Soviet Union in the same way. Not a word to indicate that no opposition is allowed and anyone tending in that direction risking lengthy jail time. Shame to @AJEnglish!

“Jewish ridings.” This isn’t a slip of the tongue. Poilievre — who aims to represent Canada on the world stage — typed this out, proofread it and then posted it and there better be some pointed follow-up questions.

@piya The best part of this was when Barbra asked about your kids. Glad you didn't avoid the personal - both you and she got real - great interview!

[Piya Chattopadhyay @piya]

The legend BARBRA STREISAND will be on my show on Sunday morning at 9 am (local time). Mine was only one of two Canadian interviews she did about her life story told in her new memoir. Tune in to CBC radio! You may be surprised what we talked about!

Only 7% of parents believe books should be removed based on the objection of a single parent.

Yet an organized assault on the freedom to read by vocal activists & pro-censorship politicians led to 3,362 books bans in the last school year—diminishing the education of millions. 🧵
