Teacher of Computer Science and maths. STEM Coordinator. 3D printing, photography, fountain pens, origami and web development take up a fair amount of my time too. Hampshire, UK.
I'm surrounded by organisations and people pushing for greater use of AI, so I'm more than happy to follow someone with your stance, to appreciate different perspectives. I'm currently teaching Y8 about what AI is, where it is used, how machine learning works etc. - I need to be careful about bias.

I shall follow Sue then to make sure that I get a more balanced view than I might currently have.

It's certainly worth a read for the additional sources. I think the title of the blog post ("The ethical case for resisting AI") is better than the line that Sue has used ("Excellent blog on why educators need to resist AI"), as it's a better fit for thinking critically about the use of AI.

Very happy so far. I haven't completed any extended periods of writing with it yet, but it writes smoothly.

I always think that I have more than enough, then a special offer email arrives or a YouTube recommendation drops... 😅

I also received this lovely handmade pen wrap, especially as more storage is needed! Very appropriate material sourced by my Mother. #FountainPens

Not yet, but I've requested that Minecraft is installed so that we can start making use of it in January.

Some form of practical project. Perhaps in the style of HPQ/EPQ. This could enable students to harness their passion and deepen understanding of an area of interest. As for a topic area, maybe IoT.

Thanks - I looked at using PA to automate the synchronisation of forms data to the linked spreadsheet, but it wasn't possible. SharePoint lists would work if an exact match to an answer, but would need to see if it can handle marking of written responses (I don't how that would work).
