Most teachers recognize the scene: a room full of students copying down slides word-for-word or neatly filing away handouts under the assumption that having the record means having the knowledge. Via Nik Peachey

Access to AI is not the same as readiness to use it well. This article sets out what an AI-ready workforce actually needs. Via EDTECH@UTRGV

"The feeling that you do not belong can hang over everything you do. Every meeting and every presentation feels like a performance where you are just waiting for someone in the audience to start booing because they have finally figured out that you have no idea what the heck you are doing."

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."

"We’ve all been experimenting with Google’s NotebookLM lately. Drop a dense, 30-page institutional report or a dry chapter into the platform, hit “generate,” and the result is surprising. Suddenly, two hyper-realistic AI hosts are talking back and forth, turning cold prose into an approachable conversational audio track. It just feels highly efficient, and it looks like an easy way to help busy students get through material." Via EDTECH@UTRGV

"Platforms like NotebookLM are useful for lowering access friction and making dense, imposing texts approachable for a broader student demographic. But if we simply host AI-generated audio files on our LMS instances and expect learning to occur on its own, the data suggest we will be disappointed."

"Teaching and learning aren’t always aligned.
Sometimes organized teaching is defensive. “Here, take all this down in your notes, it will be on the test.” This gives the teacher deniability, but might not create the conditions for the student to actually learn.
The alternative is to seek the “aha.” This is the autodidact moment, the opportunity to teach ourselves.
Most online courses and videos simply tell you the answer. Easier to get clicks that way. But the best learning is almost always autodidactic.
When the teacher creates the conditions for learning, the student does the work.
This requires trust. Trust in the process and trust in the destination.
And it requires tension. The tension of it might not work and the incentive to put in the work.
Great teachers set it up, and great students find the aha." Via Ana Cristina Pratas

"[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."
