New in @techlearning: The presentation station should belong to the space, not the speaker.

BYOD presenting turns every speaker transition into a technical gamble. Read & share this article to learn how to avoid that.

Some educators are banning laptops and returning to pen & paper to improve learning.

But easier classroom management ≠ better learning.

The real issue isn’t the devices. It’s the learning model we built around them.

We once moved from 70-hour workweeks to 40.

Maybe the next evolution isn’t about producing more, but living better.

Could the future of AI reconnect us to what mattered most?

EdTech review pages are no longer being updated at @CommonSense. Beginning Feb 2026 it is taking a break from reviews. If you relied on them, here’s where to look next, incl how to use the EdTech Index (@ISTEofficial) + ratings vs validations https://t.co/9Pua4ayZZP

Common Sense Education is pausing #EdTech reviews. Here is what schools can do next. https://t.co/A4Gh5iK39N

Teaching + nursing didn’t “lose” anything.
They still get federal loans—now with caps meant to stop crushing debt.
Huge federal loans aren't the best option anyway.
Better strategy? STACKING: scholarships + employer support + service programs.

The easiest way to create free, safe QR codes is via Google Chrome, but they moved the QR Code Generator to a less intuitive location. Check out this post to see exactly how to access it.

Did you know New York and other states are or will ban cell phones in schools? Curious about potential risks and what this means for students and teachers? Check out this post to help prepare for a phone-free reality in schools. https://t.co/secMhBTfxz

Why I haven't been Tweeting or blogging...and it's not just because there's no more Twitter. https://t.co/g30S8pXx3O

AI integration in classrooms needs to have firm restrictions; focus on actively preventing harm —@EmmaLembke. Ethical issues have to be considered from the very beginning at the design phase.

Take away from the #DigitalParenthoodSumit: Many mourn the loss of what social media platforms like Twitter were, are no longer, and we may never see again. Unfortunately, they are now the enemy for many youth & adults!

@radiokeri These school models don't interrupt student learning. https://t.co/fseL20fqcx
What do you think @radiokeri?

[Lisa Nielsen @InnovativeEdu]

Great hearing from @radiokeri at today’s #DigitalParentingSummit Pondering this:
“Is tech interrupting academics or are academics interrupting what students really need?”

@TheJoseVilson Yes. Just came here to see if it was only me :-O

Facing injustice! Despite directives from @NYCMayor, HPD neglects to ensure accessibility for wheelchair users like me. We pay high maintenance fees & basic rights are ignored. This must change! Let's demand action! #AccessibilityMatters #NYCRights @nycgov https://t.co/8VLzTeMDP6

@clairelyperlman What is the best way to contact you with a disability/accessibility story from a new NYC wheelchair user?

[Lisa Nielsen @InnovativeEdu]

@clairelyperlman I was recently struck by an SUV in a hit-and-run and can no longer walk. I'd love to connect on my struggles navigating life in NYC since the accident. I've written a guide called: "I can't walk. Now what?" so others will have less of a struggle.
