Turkey Day is done, so out comes Christmas. Transformed the Batmobile into a Christmas mobile. I kinda feel like I am the only one who still follows the rule of no Christmas stuff until after Thanksgiving. Does anyone else still wait? #Christmas #teacherlife

"The work students ask a _____ to do is different from the work chatGPT does" remains true as AI use discourages reading, research, & thinking skills in ways Google search does not. This list gets at some of what students avoid but need extensive practice with to build skills: /2

Generative AI offers substantial shortcuts around the often tedious and time-consuming work required to research a topic, including:

Defining and articulating the information need
Overcoming information gaps and keyword-foraging problems
Weighing and selecting credible sources
Sifting through enormous amounts of information
Scanning through long pages of text
Comparing contradicting perspectives from different sources
Synthesizing and storing information (mentally or in a note). Source: https://www.nngroup.com/articles/ai-changing-search-behaviors/

Whatever Ss need, they know T Lindsay Hughes is there for them:

"When students come to me upset, I've learned to say, "Do you want to vent, problem solve, or would you like a supportive space to be silent?" Their shoulders immediately relax. Choice and autonomy [start to] provide the safety they're seeking." –Teacher Lindsay Hughes

Driving in Toronto is the bunny hill that can prepare you for driving in Houston. Going 90mph (145km) and people pass you like you're going half that. I thought it was a Texas thing. Nope, just Houston. And, that is so normal, it doesn't phase anyone.

I am breaking my mold and exploring new opportunities, and this is a first for me-for sure. This year I won't be presenting at ISTE, but I will still be able to contribute to the community by being a reviewer. This is something I am really looking forward to. #ISTELIVE26

Some thoughts on learning practices we all engage in… Copying notes ≠ Learning If your students don’t understand, more practice is not going to help. Practice with no understanding = misconceptions #Education #math #mathed #EduSky #iteachmath

I write the district's math curriculum. While there is improvement in the lesson development this year from last, I need to find a way to meet a wider spectrum of teaching needs. Easier said than done when your district supports a range that includes poverty to advance performance needs. #growing

We really have to stop projecting our own negative experiences onto new teachers. I'm pretty sure I've been guilty of this at times but it's incredibly counterproductive and harmful. They need support from veterans, not hopelessness. #EduSky

It's hard to stand in front of students and try out new technology or implement new instructional strategies. Technology should not require advanced knowledge to get started, and it should also grow skills organically with usage. #EdTech #EducationForAll #TECH4ALL #tech #Edusky

Maybe it is less about tools saving teachers time and more about taking less time to learn relevant practices and tools. Ask any teacher what they want from PD. Most start with: Will it help students? Yes, they want to save time, but helping students comes 1st. #EdTech #Teaching #EduSky

Teachers will invest in things they see value in. A lot of time.

By best advise for lesson planning. Plan the "what" 6 weeks in advance, so you have time to tweak and improve. Plan the "how" 1.5 weeks in advance, so it's still fresh, but allows you grace in case planning gets canceled-that way you don't get behind.
