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."

Atlas is an AI-powered learning platform built to meet students where they are.
"For educators, Atlas is an example of how AI is evolving beyond general-purpose chatbots into subject-focused learning assistants. While it shouldn't replace classroom teaching or critical thinking, it can help students review difficult topics, organize information, and prepare for assessments when used appropriately."

"Against the backdrop of the widespread integration of generative artificial intelligence (GAI) into higher education, previous research has yielded divergent findings regarding its relationship with students’ higher-order thinking (HOT). Moving beyond outcome-oriented discussions of technology use itself, this study examines the association between HOT performance, instructional design elements, and cognitive processes in GAI-supported teaching contexts from an instructional design perspective."
"These findings suggest that differences in HOT (higher-order thinking) performance in GAI-supported learning contexts may stem from variations in instructional design and the cognitive pathways associated with it, rather than from technology use alone."

"Conversations regarding the societal implications of artificial intelligence (AI) and its integration into educational processes are ongoing. An area of great significance in this regard is agency, including how the use of AI technologies impacts an individual’s ability to exercise autonomy. In educational contexts, this remains a relatively unexplored yet vital subject. To shed light on this subject, this paper provides an exploratory thematic review of works which investigate the relationship between generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) and agency in education, mapping and interpreting the available literature through the lens of critical digital pedagogy (CDP)."
"The findings suggest that while GenAI may enhance learner agency through personalisation and support, it also risks exacerbating educational inequalities and diminishing learner autonomy in certain contexts."

Explore how instructional designers and learning experience designers differ in their approach to creating impactful learning.
"A learning experience designer (LXD) takes a broader, more human-centered view. The role emerged from the intersection of instructional design, UX design, and design thinking — and it places the learner's full experience at the center of every decision."

Artificial intelligence tools offer a glimpse into students’ classroom experience. When paired with teachers’ knowledge and judgment, it can be a path to improvement.
"Schools must look beyond a vendor’s general privacy statement and determine what data enters the system, who has access, whether it is stored or shared, and what happens to it when the district stops using the product."

"This scoping review examines the growing intersection between lifelong learning (LLL) and artificial intelligence (AI), focusing on whether the promises of assistance, personalization, and automation are aligned with the broader educational, social, and equity-oriented aims of LLL."
"The review identifies a misalignment between the theoretical and policy-oriented framing of LLL and the practical deployment of AI in educational contexts. This suggests the need to move beyond technology-centred approaches and to design AI-supported lifelong learning initiatives that are explicitly connected to regional needs, learner vulnerability, social justice, and human development."

Agentic AI may help us reach answers faster. But the future will depend on whether we still know how to earn them.
"The greatest risk associated with agentic AI—artificial intelligence systems that are designed to autonomously make decisions and act with limited supervision—may not be the disappearance of any single entry-level or mid-management role. The far bigger risk may be the gradual erosion of human decision ownership itself—the decline of human agency."

AI gains traction in higher education when it stops being a separate experiment and becomes an integrated into teaching and learning.
"For most colleges and universities, access to AI tools is no longer the barrier. The real work is building the clarity, confidence, and shared responsibility to use them well."

From pattern recognition to alignment failures, a clear-eyed guide to what's actually happening inside the AI systems reshaping work, media, and daily life
"[T]he gap between what AI can do and what people believe it's doing creates real problems. People anthropomorphize systems that have no inner experience. They trust outputs that are confidently wrong. They assume AI is "thinking" when it's doing something quite different."

"What happens when the smoke and mirrors comes with larger stakes? When the confident, capable-sounding thing on the other side of the screen is wearing the name of someone, or some company, you already believe, and you have no reason left to check whether it actually knows what it’s talking about? What does it cost that name when it’s wrong"
"The more we trust a name, the less we question the machine wearing it, and the more that name has to lose when the machine is confidently wrong."

Teaching success should not rely solely on pass rates or student satisfaction. Here’s how to gather evidence that students understand, apply and transfer what they learned
"Redefining teaching success means moving from impressions to evidence: being able to show, through concrete criteria, that students understood, applied and developed their professional thinking and behaviour. The goal is not to teach more, but to demonstrate more clearly what has been learned."

In many math classrooms, mistakes in math classrooms have been seen as something to avoid, hide, or quickly fix.
"What if mistakes became one of the most valuable tools for learning mathematics? Shifting the narrative around errors—from something to fear to something to explore—can transform not only how students approach math, but how they see themselves as learners."

"The saga imagined thinking machines as immortal individuals in metal bodies. Real AI showed up as copyable software, and every difference is worth understanding."
"Star Wars puts nearly all of its AI inside bodies that walk, roll, gesture, and emote. Reality delivered the opposite order. Capable AI arrived first as disembodied software, as text and code and conversation, because the body turned out to be the hard part rather than the easy one."

Assessment after AI is not about fear, but rather about intentional and purposeful design
"Rather than focusing only on how to stop students from using AI, we need to design tasks that make students' thinking more visible. When an assignment asks students to explain their decisions, reflect on the process, make connections, analyze feedback, defend their thinking, and revise their work, learning becomes harder to outsource."
