Students in Dr. Rains's class of teacher candidates.
I'm on the U of L campus inside the CEHD building this morning in Dr. Rains's class of teacher candidates! I'll be talking about UDL and #AI, but more importantly, love listening to student presentations.
Me too.
In my latest #edtechelixirs, I discuss creativity in a world of #AI, with some topical detours into 19th century utopianism, William Morris, medieval guilds, and wired headphones. (Trust me, it will all make sense!) #artificialintelligence #EduSky
