The “Skills Before Tools” approach from @Catlin_Tucker, paired with @BrookingsInst research, offer sound guidance for AI in schools. How might we strengthen critical thinking and foundational skills while avoiding cognitive offloading? @mrkelsall@MissGroskin@matthewjmoulton
AI is a support for learning, not a replacement for thinking.
That distinction depends entirely on whether students have the skills to evaluate information & exercise sound judgment!

Routines That Support Math Fact Fluency

As we head into testing season, strategies like retrieval and spaced practice (used consistently throughout the year) help students retain mastery without sacrificing instructional time on last-minute review that yields limited results. @drshanesaeed@SuzannahEvans2
Retrieval and spaced practice are two study strategies that must be combined
"Retrieval and spaced practice should therefore be seen as two sides of the same coin. Teachers and students need to know, understand and implement both strategies.
When combined, they create powerful routines for lasting learning and effective exam preparation.
By combining retrieval and spacing, teachers and students can make learning stick for the long term while reducing stress and avoiding last-minute cramming."

Part of the beauty of math is in the nuance. Not everything has one solution. Not everything is right or wrong. ... This is why debate has a real place in math class. @cultofpedagogy
