Today’s Tech Tip Tuesday was all about encouraging peer feedback. Shared a great blog post from John Spencer on 7 Strategies for Getting the Most Out of Peer Feedback in the Classroom and provided two #Canva templates with sentences stems and a choice board.

Presentation

Just wrapped up a session on Microsoft #Copilot at @ucl.ac.uk! We explored how AI-driven tools can enhance productivity without accessing personal data. Covered key features, comparisons to other LLMs, and practical use cases.

A talk on AI in education

The rise of AI assistants (agents) dominated much of the conversation this year, at #BETT2025. While their potential to transform learning is undeniable, I was struck by the limited focus on some of the challenges of AI —like academic misconduct and the potential for misuse.
#AI #highered #edtechsky

Absolutely! With #UDL we can be more cognizant of the barriers during planning and work to eliminate them. #edtechsky #edusky #librarysky

What a beautiful thing! 🤩 #EduSky #EdTechSky

I love talking the train into Chicago, especially when it means getting to meet up with great teachers. Great Lakes Apple Distinguished Educator event downtown today. #EDUsky #AppleTeacherSky #EdTechSky #BlueSkySTEMguy

Any good resources (I love a good podcast) comparing the privatization of healthcare in America and parallels to what happening in the education system? #edusky #edtechsky #healthsystems #hospitalmanagment #podcast

Understanding AI Literacy A framework that identifies and organizes skills and knowledge you and students can use to navigate the opportunities and challenges of generative AI.

From Stanford, a framework for AI literacy in four domains: functional, ethical, rhetorical, and pedagogical.

To say AI should take over teaching is problematic.

To say AI has no place in education is also problematic.

There is a lot of gray area in the middle. That’s the place for thoughtful conversation, careful testing, and hopeful skepticism.

#edusky #edtechsky

Is a “discussion” the same as a “debate?”

This is a central tension for students.

#edusky #edtechsky #edchat

What I’m most interested in right now:

Making discussion scenarios for students that are compelling enough to sustain conversation without an adult needing to be in the room. #edusky #edtechsky

Oh, my EdTech friends, it is good to see you and what you post again. 😊 #EduSky #EdTechSky

Have some new followers from some starter packs and such, so boosting my intro thread.

Also, I'm on the academic job market!

I'm heading to #UCEA2024 in LA next week to talk about "Using AI to Expose Inequities in State Education Data." We have a novel approach to leveraging public education data using generative AI large language models (LLMs). (1/6)

Not sure of who all made the jump, but #edtechsky and #edusky peeps feel free to add me so I can follow you back… #k12 & #highered welcomed

How lovely to see so many new and active colleagues here. To reintroduce myself to #AcademicSky and #EdTechSky, I'm an educational developer based in Sweden and I'm particularly interested in assessment, digital tools to support teaching and how trust is built between teachers and students.

Great presentation from Andrew & Charlie - Where are the students? How to reach the Digital Generation.

Great example of digital education to deliver an active learning experience in medical education.
