@adamboxer1 Do you mean they offer zero personalisation, are massively prone to cognitive overload therefore TOTALLY overwhelming, do not adapt in any way to the learner, repeat the wrong stuff in the wrong order (or not at all), offer no application guidance, void of metacognition theory…

"AI is like a stallion, it's a beautiful beast but you don't want it running loose through your school. " 🤯💡

A powerful quote from Rose Luckin in The Arena earlier today during her talk: AI: Learn fast, act more slowly.

Did you manage to catch the session?

@BeckyFrancis7 @bphillipsonMP I’m also very pleased indeed with your appointment. My hope is that we can demonstrate through curriculum that we truly value all forms of human expression and skills

@mrlockyer Should be standard 💯

@RogersHistory @DixonsAcademies have been doing this kind of thing for ages, perhaps not at such scale but a number of larger ‘classes’ over the week has the same net effect. Point as I understand it, is to start with desired outcomes (rather than 30:1) and deliver accordingly

@Ranga_EDU @ICTEvangelist @mejessop @darcyprior @raff31 Time period should be considered relative to the product rather than prescriptive duration, also taking into account cost, ease of setup etc. I like the idea of starting out with desired impact and working backwards…

Wondering what is the environmental impact of the war in the Ukraine and whether intervention from that angle could be key… as a planet we can’t afford to be destroying power stations, driving tanks, unnecessary flights etc. etc. the carbon cost must be huge #UkraineRussiaWar

@MrBenParnell Any particular specialism, primary, secondary?

LISTENING is so underrated and often overlooked! Well done @MoorsideHigh #revision #gcses2022 #metacognition #dualcoding

[Moorside High School @MoorsideHigh]

8 Days to Amaze!

Record important points and quotes then listen back to them, or listen to revision podcasts on GCSEPod - information is more likely to sink in if you listen to it! #TeamMoorside #WeCARE

@deepexperience1 Over the years we’ve spent like £70-90k a pop on being there, only to be literally unable to demonstrate live and have to fall back on mobile phones, 3/4G dongles and even stills and downloaded content. It’s the hugest irony at an the world’s biggest EdTech exhibition…

[Peter Burgess @EdTechPB]

@teacherhead Haha @RealGeoffBarton got everyone going no trouble

[Peter Burgess @EdTechPB]

@RealGeoffBarton is right, GCSE’s need an *urgent overhaul*, system is not fit for purpose and deliberately fails our young people. @nadhimzahawi please, please hear the advice, liberate, collaborate. Fight for the young people you represent.

[Peter Burgess @EdTechPB]

Amen @pepediiasio, I too strive to be more like @RealGeoffBarton! I love the sentiment behind ambition… “for others”. 100% eradicate child poverty. Oh, to have a govt with true ambition #ASCL2022

@teacherhead @Fededucation are doing an AMAZING job of making a serious attempt at this by creating a long term strategy, policies and planning; re-imagining the relationship between politics and education…

[Peter Burgess @EdTechPB]

@MrsG_ELT @Duncan_Baldwin I’m jealous!
