Here is my most recent piece about the intersection between memory loss and AI. I hope the piece resonates with anyone struggling with mental health challenges or has family members who do. #ai #mentalhealth

@belathram I see recording classes as useful in the scenario that schools are open but some students/families choose not to send their children. I think it’s unfair to ask teachers to prep both in-person/online lessons if govt has approved returning in person.

@cdworrell @MassCUE @CanvasLMS @nealman17 @JulieCremin @sarahkyriazis @BemeryTech @WPSDigitalLearn I’ve been suggesting the Google Classroom annotation feature. Explain Everything is even better but the workflow is more difficult than GC.

@belathram Totally agree. Interesting that instructional coaching has been around in public schools for quite a while but hasn't made much traction in indy schools

[Mike Kalin @mikehkalin]

@lcarroll94 Seems very difficult to change. I find that students themselves interpret the difficulty of a class by the amount of time they spend, rather than by the kind of tasks required of them
