Few professional workflows are as well-suited for AI power-ups as K12 teaching. Teachers do as much “knowledge work” as anyone, yet their most insightful and expert decisions are typically repeated over 100 times in a day or two: feedback, grading, coaching, family communication
Do you remember when you joined Twitter? I do! It was for #NSTA New Orleans (15 years ago!), and allowed me to connect with other science teachers for the best twitter there ever was.
Who’s going to @NSTA Denver? I made a GPT assistant to discover sessions: https://t.co/O5vYc09w58 Requests welcome. (Requires ChatGPT Plus. If that’s an obstacle for you, DM me and I’ll see what I can do for ya.) #nstadenver@fnoschese @fpoodry @Bud_T@MR_ABUD@sciencebase@sci
@bradleychambers What are you seeing in schools and learning communities? What kinds of conversations are you hearing with educators, students, and families?
@carlvellotti “I’m the one on the team who speaks a little bit of the language of the business, speaks a little more of the language of the technical folks, and obsesses day and night over the people who need the stuff we are working on. Basically, I’m a coach for a team that makes software.”
@realBrookNash My favorite has been a high five- holding up a hand while exclaiming, “sidebar high five!” Or, “parking lot high five!” Virtual high fives work too. Corny, but if team is on board it can be lighthearted and affirmative while also thoroughly halting the deep dive convo.
@gruber I also like to say “thank you” to voice assistants, and surely you’ve noted as well that the best hands-free way to turn off the alert for an iOS/HomePod timer is with, a “Hey Siri, thank you.”
