@ReggieHere @ChrisMayLA6 Oh, sure, but generally they lack the *cachet* and connections.

@sanjaykmohindroo That view from a plane always makes my problems feel small.

@smohindroo1 That view of Earth from above really drives home how arbitrary our borders are-and how much we need that shared perspective to tackle climate change together.

@TarkabarkaHolgy Are there in your neighbourhood ? Many performers in Amsterdam center till a few years ago. Restricted in the busiest, because it was mostly just dressed up spooky, telling all the same stories. Best I remember were in the UK ,I have never seen that anywhere else like that. Able to make a random public listen to your story, not even with music.

@syntaxseed Do you know what the objective of the lesson is? There may be legitimate reasons related to AI literacy or AI fluency, but without knowing the objective of the lesson, it's hard to judge. Hopefully the students aren't learning that it's just easier to use AI all the time. Cognitive struggle is important. You could always ask to see the teacher's lesson plan...

Traveling the world opens your mind to new cultures, languages, and perspectives. It's an education you can't find in a classroom. ️ #Travel #Education

Poll about #school #counsellors and #dataPRIVACY in #education Do your counsellors ensure that private and confidential client data is private from the moment of capture onwards - ie on the device, on the network, and in storage?Does your institution take data privacy seriously enough to spend money and change behaviour?(Note - secure is NOT private. Any use of cloud storage where the data is not deliberately encrypted before storing is likely to be compromised)Please boost for reach.

Schools entering into agreements to offer students AI services are choosing to provide students an immature, untested and over promised technology without a meaningful discussion of its educational worth. And yeah, I know the argument: "get on the train or be left behind"...but do we really have to stand directly in the middle of the tracks and await being run over too?#AI #education

@muelsyse And that video is of an older version! The newer version is even nicer with more features, while still being simple to use.

"Students across Canada are exposed to artificial intelligence (AI) whether through search engines, writing assistants, automated recommendation systems or social media.That everyday exposure raises a first, fundamental question: What should students should learn about AI? "➔ How should schools teach AI?3 models to consider:https://theconversation.com/how-should-schools-teach-ai-3-models-to-consider-278041#education #AI

@mycotropic @TheConversationUS I agree. The bedrock, completely devoid of AI, should to be critical thinking. after that, you start introducing this horrible AI business. Yes, I know people think it's "magic," that it's their new buddy, that it's the new oracle, but for all of these things to be true, human cognition will atrophy and change into something else.

@GurgelSegrillo Well said!
