I said what I said.
We're doing our students a disservice by not teaching them to write across all subjects. Come join me in Salon D at 1:30pm to talk about why our kids can't write -- and what to do about it.

It is absolute torture to see posts from all those I follow in the Fediverse that are going to be here in Austin NEXT WEEK for SXSW (non-EDU). This isn’t FOMO it’s IGTMO (I’m going to miss out) #SXSWEDU2025
Just attending a great Gaming Edu Meetup at @sxswedu.com!
It's been a great week here with creatives, educators, and so many other cool people.

#SXSWEDU2025 So far I’ve attended some great sessions and interacted with passionate educators at the conference. Looking forward to Day 4. 🥰
Can a digital program really provide the same quality feedback as a human teacher? (Hint: no) Let's not confuse automation with genuine human interaction. We need teachers to humanize teaching, not robots to individualize it.

Teachers who hate or fear writing will have students who hate and/or fear writing. #SXSWEDU @sxswedu.com #SXSWEDU2025
Come see me in Salon D at 1:30pm today to discuss why #MyKidsCantWrite
If the algorithms and the web-based tools were going to work, they would have worked by now. Putting kids in front of screens with gamified test prep in front of them is not a solution--and it's not teaching. It's just putting more money in the hands of big tech.
#SXSWEDU #SXSWEDU2025 @SXSWEDU
"Too much of a good thing" applies to individualized learning. There's a point of diminishing returns. Are we creating independent thinkers, or just algorithm-dependent students? #SXSWEDU @sxswedu.com #SXSWEDU2025
The future of our students depends on their ability to communicate effectively in writing. Let's make it happen. Come join me in Salon D at 1:30pm to discuss how to make this happen.
#SXSWEDU #SXSWEDU2025 #MyKidsCantWrite
Writing is the foundation of critical thinking. And when we ask kids to write about their learning, we hold them accountable to thinking critically.
Come join me in Salon D at 1:30pm to discuss #MyKidsCant Write #SXSWEDU #SXSWEDU2025
AI is not a silver bullet. It has some practical uses--but at the end of the day, our kids still need to learn how to write.
Disagree? Come see me today in Salon D at 1:30pm -- and let's talk about it! #SXSWEDU #SXSWEDU2025
It's clear teaching writing helps all teachers, regardless of your content. So why aren't we doing it more? #SXSWEDU @sxswedu.com #SXSWEDU2025

The future is interdisciplinary. And actually, now that I think about it, so is the present.
Let's prepare our students by integrating writing across all subjects. Come join me in Salon D at 1:30pm to discuss more!

The myth of "personalized curriculum" is just that – a myth. Over-individualization can actually depersonalize learning, robbing kids of collaboration and social-emotional growth. #SXSWEDU @sxswedu.com #SXSWEDU2025
Writing is not a separate subject. And it shouldn't be it's own time of day. It's a tool for learning that should be used in every classroom. #MyKidsCantWrite
Come to Salon D at 1:30pm to learn more #SXSWEDU @SXSWEDU #SXSWEDU2025
Can you find my error #SXSWEDU? Now, can you tell me about how this supports students writing across the subjects? What would your next step be?
Come visit me in Salon D at 1:30pm to talk about #MyKidsCantWrite! #SXSWEDU2025 @SXSWEDU
Someone recently told me that kids won't need to learn how to write because AI will do it for them.
WRONG.
If we want students to be successful in the 21st century, we need to teach them how to write effectively. #MyKidsCantWrite #SXSWEDU #SXSWEDU2025 @SXSWEDU
Hot take: Writing is not just for English teachers. All teachers should be responsible for teaching writing. #MyKidsCantWrite #SXSWEDU #SXSWEDU2025 @SXSWEDU

Good morning #SXSWEDU! My name is Paul—and my shirt says it all. You are probably doing too much! Let’s #MakeTeachingSustainable
Come see me in Salon D at 1:30pm for #MyKidsCantWrite! @sxswedu #sxswedu2025
(Also I have stickers 🤩🤩🤩)
We need to stop making excuses and start teaching writing across all subjects. #MyKidsCantWrite #SXSWEDU #SXSWEDU2025 @SXSWEDU
You'd be hard-pressed to find a teacher who DOESN'T wait their kids writing more across all subjects. The problem is this... they just don't know where to get started.
Come see me in Salon D at 1:30pm today to discuss why #MyKidsCantWrite #SXSWEDU @SXSW #SXSWEDU2025
Just landed in Austin for #SXSWEDU and can't WAIT to chat with a room of educators tomorrow about how to GET KIDS WRITING in an authentic and relevant manner.
Join me in Hilton Salon D at 1:30pm. Can't wait to see you there. #SXSWEDU2025 @SXSWEDU
Where are my #SXSWEDU attendees on BlueSky? #SXSWEDU2025 @sxswedu.com
