But then, like everyone else, I’m so overwhelmed by an unsustainable workload of my own that I’m not nearly as available to them as I want to be, for things like this. Re the typing…I want to find a free program and just give them 15 mins per shift on it.

Yes — as a student supervisor in a technical work context, I feel like I need to develop my own computer skills curriculum to cover with all of them, at this point. Turn computer on / off, open files, type, etc. Also to try to help them build skills in problem solving and good judgment around tech.

I've never encountered more students who say they hate reading. Students who want to be teachers, writers, or both. I wonder if "hate" means "I have trouble reading," but I also talk with so many students who write in a genre but refuse to read in it. They can't see themselves in relation to others.

I’m still in denial that official rda in its present preposterous form is really what we will have to use.

Are we really at a stage in public education where we consider it OK to have literally Google-branded schoolchildren whose learner identities are tied to being "responsible AI" users of private for-profit technologies?

in this passage that this core knowledge would be taught in service of AI literacy rather than vice versa, which is an odd framing. ("AI literacy requires..."). But not surprising-this doc is about how to use AI everywhere. /2
