You can now share Gemini Gems with people in (and out) of your organization. Shared Gems will be placed into a new Google Drive folder called Gemini Gems.

My goal for my 14th year in education: elevate my 2020 Google Innovator project.

My passion project originally focused on creating a sense of belonging in schools - I'm now exploring how AI can help.

I’m grateful for the insight I’ve gained from educators leading the AI conversation.

It seems like just yesterday, we had googly eyes for a chatbot doing lesson plans, now "AI Agents" are autonomously tackling tasks.

Feels like ChatGPT's new agent is more user-friendly/ready while Google's Agentspace is "business". What are your thoughts?

@support.bsky.team Would like the option to see a feed of people I don’t follow, but have similar occupations/ interests as me. For example, would like to see feeds from others in education (that are, perhaps, verified by providing a school email address?)

As an educator, are you still finding it beneficial to post and engage on @bsky.app?

I’ll be using this time to determine my workflow amongst the social media platforms that I use.

I'd love to get your feedback on a website I've vibe coded with Google AI Studio. It helps schools plan sub coverage for absent teachers. It's a work in progress, but feel free to use it.

I’m #notatcue this year - first time in a while… 😔

But I just concluded an awesome 2-day CAST institute hosted by Monterey COE’s Maria Parker and Robin Mendenhall, collaborated with Carrie Sebora, and found out that one of my students became a teacher! Woohoo!

It's done. First post was in 2015. Account deleted in 2025. Original Twitter was the best - it was my go-to for everything, but it turned into something else.

10 years was invested into this platform. However, there's a great sense of relief to get away from X for many different reasons.
