This has been my take on PLUR1BUS right now–I really don't like Carol and I really love the premise of the show. But the nature of this particular show is that Carol is the only character we have met that we have an opportunity to form an opinion about.

I’ve heard many of these same concerns from teachers—and felt some of them myself—but the solution is more and better training for how educators can use AI as a collaborator.

Nick’s take here is stark, for sure, but he’s hitting on an excellent point: we’re missing the primary issue that teachers are not equipped to teach in the AI age.

I typically side with the mainstream media and their reputations and resources, but it's hard to deny that this story only happened because of one determined citizen journalist.

The idea that critical thinking is not enough for today's students–that they also need a certain amount of background knowledge to be able to apply that thinking–is, I think, going to be the Science of Reading debate of 2026.

This new metric (GenAI Skills Transformation Index) purports to measure the impact of AI on different jobs. Not sure how much credence to put in this, but time will tell.

The top line from this survey is half of people surveyed still see more pessimism than optimism about AI.

I 100% agree with this idea. Current students *can* focus, but it’s hard to compete with the dopamine hit of short videos and endless games.

Vouchers in NC are just making it cheaper for upper middle class white families to afford the Christian school their kids were already attending

I’m not prone to doomsday predictions, but it does feel like our education system is at risk. Is better journalism the answer?

I’m not sure that I agree with this assessment—my newly phone-free classroom is a more positive, less narcissistic, and more empathetic place—but I appreciate the unique perspective.

Great reminder of how important the “teacher-led station” can be when using stations/rotations in your classroom.

Having a shared definition of what AI literacy is and how we assess it is going to be critical to how we plan our classroom lessons that involve AI tools. buff.ly/bSV5wnt

Interesting perspective. Reinforces for me the need for educators to continue to push student use of AI not as a crutch, but as a catalyst. buff.ly/7Y950AF

Glad to see that AI has made this list (how couldn't it, right?) and I hope that it does lead to more personalized learning.

In business, they say "What gets measured gets done." We need to be careful that we are measuring the right things. buff.ly/HZ0ymOc

Author Robin Sloan (whose writing I adore) wrote this in a blog post about why humans don’t misremember like AI models do.

Nope. Nopety nopety nope. Step into a classroom that is using AI tools to assist with learning right now and you will understand why the human will always be necessary.

Love this balanced perspective from my neighbors in GCPS! Great plans always "go slow to go fast", right?

McSweeney's at its best–shining the light of satire on the lives of public school teachers and families.

I will never tire of John Warner and his writing. It goes straight to the heart of an issue and (even when I sometimes disagree) brings the reader to an awakening of sorts.

If you haven't taken the time to read this FANTASTIC article from Esquire, now is the time. Painfully accurate depiction of the current state of affairs in the U.S.

If students want to learn more about AI in schools, why aren’t we providing that instruction?

Texas’ attempt to staff classrooms with uncertified “warm bodies” has failed. No surprise there.
