Don’t underestimate how important it is to take every single opportunity to not give billionaires your money.
Can you buy local and not Amazon?
Can you get it on buy nothing?
Do you really need it?
Billionaires get to be billionaires by taking your money. Get serious about ending that.
At some point people are going to look back at this current era of education and wonder why there was so much emphasis on getting one type of screen out of the hands of students only to have so much time in the classroom be spent...staring at another screen.
Good morning, my people.
One thing I've been thinking about: academics still regard teachers not as co-professionals or partners in knowledge enactment, but as subjects secondary (if not tertiary) to their pursuit of knowledge.
"Flattening" for power is not enough without conscientious action.
Passing thought. Selling writing in school as a way for students to secure future opportunity was always a losing proposition. It's an even bigger loser now with ChatGPT, et al... Need to get students seeing how writing is a valuable and enjoyable experience for NOW. A way to practice agency.
Me minding my own business the last day before break ends and Grammarly "AI-powered" ads keep popping up basically promising kids they'll write the essays for them... 😬
But sure. Let's lean into this, right?
How do we decide what gets called “AI”?
2025 hopes for math ed…
Less: debates framed around the best way to teach math (emphasis on the singular)
More: conversations about engaging students in many expressions, practices, and kinds of mathematics (plural)
This is great! Thank you for making and sharing these puzzles!! Such a fun resource
How would you define statistics?
Working on a definition for class based on the idea of story but would love to hear ideas
We don’t need millionaires and billionaires starting their own schools. We need billionaires to pay more equitably so every school can be better resourced.
AI data centers are multiplying across the U.S. and sucking up huge amounts of power.
New evidence shows they may also be distorting the normal flow of electricity for millions of Americans
“Our students should see a math that is bigger than abstract representations, plotted points, and written notations. They should see a math that is active and participatory”

On the left, my image. On the right, the Al image that was clearly trained on, and designed to plagiarize, my image.
All Al generated imagery is inherently theft. It's unethical, environmentally disastrous, and does irreparable harm to both artists and society.
Who has a good teacher starter pack? Math teacher? Education in general?
It feels like more people would agree with the assertion that “AI” has intelligence than with the assertion that trees have intelligence.
And that shows how little we know about both
So cool!!

Maybe I'm being pedantic, but when people say that AI is their "thought partner" I wonder how to have a thought partner that cannot think (or feel, or communicate with intention). What appears to be thought is an illusion that only achieves meaning through the human interpreting it.

I’m generally skeptical of any education claim/conversation that is framed as “this works” vs “that doesn’t work”
Nothing about real learning with actual people draws a line that mutually exclusive and clear cut
Seeing the dialogue about the math cartoon and so sharing this thing I wrote a while back

Cool idea!! Love games like this!!!
💯💯💯
Please stop using generative AI.
Do you have a go to artist or album?
