Second draft of breaking down #ISTE standards and visualizing with icons to simplify the understanding. Inspired by @OrenjiButa #Skillsfirst #ishcmcIB Professional Inquiry Teams aka PIT goal was to create a visual interpretation of these standards. Feedback is appreciated!

Greg Brockman (@gdb) of OpenAI just demoed GPT-4 creating a working website from an image of a sketch from his notebook.

It’s the coolest thing I’ve *ever* seen in tech.

If you extrapolate from that demo, the possibilities are endless.

A glimpse into the future of computing.

Would highly recommend this session...diverse perspectives, forward-thinking implementation, and some examples of schools who have begun thinking about our new AI-collaborative paradigm.

@j0hnburns @ISSCommunity Really enjoyed the ChatGPT for Educators Workshop. Great perspectives. Excited to share the thinking and resources with my team at @AsaMadagascar.

I don’t know what the future of education holds. But I know that prohibiting the use of new technology will only harm our students in the long run.

@Mrs_Gilchrist @jcd118 @LRobbTeacher @ERobbPrincipal @levi_allison42 @inspirecitizen1 @ms_pyp @MathewBhavna @pypwithniko @KavitaTanna @VidhyaG12 @NancyinLux1 The great part about this is that as we transition between all the roles we play (learner, coach, teacher, etc), we have the chance to model what inquiry can look like in each role. #PubPDAfrica

A2 An inquiry educator fosters a spirit of "we're all in this together" and creates a safe place to try new things #PubPDAfrica

[Ronen @EduRonen]

Time is flying...

Q2: What does it mean to be an inquiry educator?
What does it look like in your practice?
#PubPDAfrica

[Rachel Gabbert @gabbra01]

A1. This is a super important point. Hearing "it's just how it is" is a way different mindset than "let's find out" #PubPDAfrica

[Ronen @EduRonen]

A1. Lots here:
You also need to *develop* skills- questioning, wondering, curiosity. Also, the difference in the way we grew up- culturally, educationally- there are factors that we need to work with or against...

@GradelyNG Thanks for joining us, @Gradely! #personalizedlearning and #inquiry go hand in hand! #pubpdafrica

[Rachel Gabbert @gabbra01]

@jcd118 definitely! And get joy out of "being wrong" aka learning something new! #PubPDAfrica

[Rachel Gabbert @gabbra01]

A1: Absolutely! Being a lifelong learner means the inquiry cycle never truly ends...there's always more to ask and know and grow in #pubpdafrica #africaed

[Ryan @ryan_elissa]

A1: I think inquiry is all about being reflective and a learner. In life this is about being a lifelong learner; seeking new understandings learning from experience and staying curious. #PubPDAfrica

[Rachel Gabbert @gabbra01]

A1: Inquiry is messy! It involves having the creativity to approach a problem with a new perspective. "What if I tried..." "What could I do with..." open us up to the world of possibilities #africaed #pubpdafrica

[Rachel Gabbert @gabbra01]
