An analog classroom is not the way forward—but we should be rethinking higher ed’s approach to ed tech. I, like many of you, was caught off guard by the massive Canvas outage, caused by a group of hackers who demanded that Instructure pay a ransom to avert the disclosure of millions of users’ personal data. The outage could not have happened at a worse time, as instructors were evaluating final exams and assignments, calculating final grades, and gearing up for summer online courses.

"In recent years, significant developments have occurred in AI-based chatbots that have been effectively deployed in the educational field. However, given the novelty of this technology, descriptive analyses remain scarce. Although many review studies have focused on the effectiveness of chatbots, they generally present broad results, and only a few have addressed the impact of this technology on learning outcomes."

Purpose-built AI systems can analyze patterns in student performance, identify specific skill gaps, and connect those gaps directly to instructional recommendations. Done well, this doesn't remove the teacher from the equation. It sharpens the teacher's ability to act.

Learning how to question and analyze are skills that must be honed and practiced. Educators must help train minds to look for flawed arguments, misuse of data, or outright lies so we can ensure that as students form their own thoughts on issues, they are grounding them in reality.

Some low-tech strategies can help us build more resilient systems. In case you missed it, Canvas went down last week. A cybersecurity incident affecting the Canvas learning management system caused disruption to around 9,000 universities, colleges and K–12 schools. Instructors and students were temporarily unable to access course materials, assignments, announcements and student communications during one of the busiest periods of the academic term.

"“User” has traditionally meant one thing: a person. The user is someone who navigates an interface, scans text/visuals, and makes decisions. UX/UI has always been about “reducing friction” between humans and the products they use. But UX and the design process are heavily evolving."

"Ask ten people in the industry what responsible AI design means and you will get ten different answers. Ethics frameworks, trustworthy AI principles, responsible innovation checklists: the vocabulary keeps growing. But underneath all of that sits a more practical question. When someone is actually sitting in front of an AI-powered product, what makes the experience good? And who, if anyone, has written that down in a way that’s actually useful?"

"The share of A’s in college classes heavy on writing and coding—in other words, work more prone to artificial-intelligence use—has grown more significantly than in other classes since ChatGPT’s debut, according to a paper from the University of California, Berkeley, released Wednesday. Professors teaching AI-exposed classes gave out about 30% more A’s and fewer A-minus and B plus grades. The results suggest that students have relied on generative AI to do better in their studies, not that these classes of students are learning more, says Igor Chirikov, a senior researcher at Berkeley’s Center for Studies in Higher Education and the author.
