[Dr. Chad LeDune @Dr_LeDune]

Worksheets don’t build neural pathways.
Struggle does.

Hands-on, well-scaffolded challenge strengthens learning at a neurological level.

Productive struggle > passive compliance.

[Sabba Quidwai, EdD 🙌🏼 Designing Schools @askMsQ]

The shift wasn’t asking “what’s the next AI tool?”
It was asking “what if?”

What if I solved the problem? Built the thing? Thought bigger?

When you lead with thinking, AI stops feeling like catch-up—and starts becoming a signal for where judgment matters most.

[Sabba Quidwai, EdD 🙌🏼 Designing Schools @askMsQ]

Hot take: ChatGPT isn’t making students dumber. The assignments are.

AI didn’t kill critical thinking, it exposed how little we're asking for. The best educators aren’t policing prompts; they’re redesigning work so AI is a collaborator, not a shortcut. It’s not about less work.

[Sabba Quidwai, EdD 🙌🏼 Designing Schools @askMsQ]

They say ChatGPT makes students dumber. I say: good. Maybe now we’ll stop assigning work that never required real thinking.

AI isn’t lowering the bar, it’s exposing how low it already was. The best educators aren’t banning AI. They’re redesigning learning to expect more.

[Jennifer Parisi @iJenParisi]

Yes! 100% agree! Student ownership & learner agency increases! Curating resources as team is helpful, but Instructional Coaches can help facilitate the process too!

[Dr. Catlin Tucker @Catlin_Tucker]

“Is blended learning only for little kids?”

Not at all. Blended learning works well at every grade level when it’s designed with purpose & flexibility. 🙌🏻

[Dr. Catlin Tucker @Catlin_Tucker]

💛 The words we choose in our feedback, rubrics, conversations, & comments have the power to either build our learners up or shut them down.

Learning to read is one of the most complex skills humans ever acquire, the brain wasn't designed for it, and research shows the foundation for literacy begins to develop before birth.

We can continue to use AI-powered education tools to churn out one-size-fits-few lessons, activities, and assessments. Or we can use them to design with a higher level of intentionality in a fraction of the time. @Catlin_Tucker #ElevateDesign #AI #EdChat

[Jennifer Parisi @iJenParisi]

Agreed! @SnorklApp is an incredible feedback tool! Working with teachers to set up different feedback options in Snorkl so students have a voice and choice about the feedback they need to grow as writers! AMAZING! #EDtech

That’s not just screen time- t’s learning time.
When students talk through their ideas, they reveal how they think, what they understand, and where they need support. #ai #studenthinking

5th grade! Elevating writing! How? We introduce and practice using the feedback tools (I do/We do/You do). Students reflect on if and how the feedback tool helped support #writing @KatieNovakUDL @Catlin_Tucker @iJoeRobinson #AIinEducation #studentagency

[Jennifer Parisi @iJenParisi]

@Catlin_Tucker @KatieNovakUDL Inspired by Elevating Design Using AI! Exciting work in 5th-grade writing. Students have voice and choice through AI tools like @briskteaching @notebooklm_pods. Watching students light up when they hear their feedback on the podcast is incredible!
