A computerized AI coaching support model lets pre-service teachers engage in scalable, self-guided reflection for teacher preparation.
"An AI-powered video coaching platform enables pre-service teachers to independently reflect on their teaching, receive time-stamped feedback, and improve their practice by aligning lessons with self-identified goals—fostering scalable, self-guided professional growth."

In governance, AI fundamentally changes how decisions are informed, it does not change who remains accountable for them.
"As intelligence becomes increasingly abundant, expertise becomes less about access to information and more about interpretation, integration, critique, and judgment."

The traditional boundary between a traditional degree and active professional development has permanently dissolved, writes Tim Brown. AI skills need to be taught in a similarly joined-up way
"An uncomfortable truth for the higher education sector is that artificial intelligence is reshaping how work gets done. Graduates will need to enter AI-enabled workplaces with a clear sense of how to work alongside intelligent systems, and millions of experienced professionals are going to require reskilling."

"Value no longer lies only in producing an answer, but in how that answer is developed. AI can generate content quickly, but it can’t determine whether a question is well framed, whether reasoning is sound, or whether conclusions are appropriate."
"Debate has focused on integrity and misuse, but this overlooks a deeper shift: AI is reshaping how students learn, think and demonstrate ability."

Writing is one of the most important critical thinking skills to help develop the mind and express creative thought, which AI cannot do
"The biggest mistake users make using AI to write is overlooking the visible lack of substance and eerie wording in LLM outputs...It is the personification a human adds that’s absent in AI outputs."

"Designers often say that UX isn’t really about screens. It’s a line I see in portfolios, I hear in interviews; that’s the line we use to signal that we’re thinking beyond just pixels. But honestly, for most of my career, that wasn’t true. In one way or another, the job was screens: building flows in Figma, mapping out states, writing specs, worrying about happy paths and edge cases, and handling handoff. We kept saying UX isn’t about screens, even as we kept making more of them."
"As AI products become more advanced, the interface is no longer the main focus. Now, the real question is which screens are still needed and which can serve as fallbacks."

Learn when GenAI should support, challenge, or step back in instructional design—and how role switching can improve judgment, quality, and control.
"GenAI is not equally useful in every mode or at every stage. Sometimes, it is extremely valuable as a support tool. Sometimes, its real value lies in critique. And sometimes, the best thing it can do is step back while the instructional designer does the hard thinking without interference."

Explore how AI can strengthen teaching by restoring creativity, supporting reflective practice, and helping faculty reconnect with their teaching identity.
"In a time when faculty are being asked to integrate AI into their work with equal parts enthusiasm and caution, this may be the most useful lesson I can offer: AI is not here to take our roles. But it can reveal when we’ve stepped out of them."

"University students now use artificial intelligence (AI) tools in several academic activities, including information retrieval, writing support, and problem-solving. While these technologies may enhance learning efficiency, effective student engagement with AI requires relevant psychological characteristics as well as technology-related competencies."
"[M]indfulness was positively associated with AI literacy and AI self-efficacy among university students...students reporting higher AI literacy also reported greater perceived capability in using AI-supported tools, indicating that technological understanding may be statistically related to the association between mindfulness and perceived competence."

"What changes when artificial intelligence moves from answering questions to taking action? The shift from chatbots to agentic AI turns a responsive interface into an operational system that can pursue goals, use tools, and complete multi-step work. ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini changed how people generate content and interact with software."
"A chatbot resembles a knowledgeable consultant. An AI agent resembles a specialist who receives a goal, develops a plan, and performs approved work."

I've come to believe that educational AI is a fundamentally different engineering discipline than the consumer AI most people read about.
"Most platforms today personalize within individual components, but the real opportunity lies in architectures that treat learning as a continuous feedback system. You can also anticipate that AI will move away from acting primarily as an answer engine and toward functioning more like a coach, proactively surfacing questions, guiding practice and helping learners connect concepts across domains."

This article explains why L&D's evaluation capabilities can finally measure behavior transfer and business impact.
"Measuring behavior transfer requires comparing what employees do on the job before and after training—which means pulling data from performance management systems, CRMs, operational dashboards, or direct manager observation records. None of that data lives in the LMS."

AI literacy, metacognitive frameworks, and reflection apparati have limited efficacy in the absence of systemic change, instructional redesign, disciplinary scaffolding, and ongoing measurement.
"Much of what now travels under the name AI literacy, though, looks like compliance in sheep’s clothing. It teaches students and teachers to name risks, follow rules, disclose use, and perform responsible language while leaving untouched the instructional conditions that make AI offloading attractive in the first place."

"In the context of global digital transformation in education and post-pandemic reforms, online teaching has evolved from an emergency response into an essential instructional mode in higher education. Enhancing the quality of university students’ online learning and fostering their capacity for online deep learning (OnlineDL) have thus become key concerns in the educational field."
"Although TP (teaching Presence) shows only a modest direct effect, it indirectly enhances OnlineDL through multiple mediation pathways involving CP (cognitive presence) and LP (learning presence)."

Just checking this out. The demo looks impressive.
In de VS wordt AI ingezet om toekomstige docenten te begeleiden met directe feedback, gesimuleerde praktijksituaties en reflectievragen. Doel: betere voorberetiding, meer gelijkheid én opschaling van lerarenopleidingen.
