This week, on top of the absolute exhaustion, there’s the heavy sadness of what teaching has become. When I started, it felt like teaching was an art.

If it looks like book burning, smells like book burning … probably is book burning. Levels of irony, layers ethical concerns, this AI machine has a phenomenal appetite. Human creativity shovelled in, consumed and sold back as something new!? www.404media.co/ai-companies...

How can we retell stories through coding? What happened first? Then what happened? What do we need to tell the Bluebot so that it goes the correct way? #EduSky
A student is navigating a Bluebot robot around a grid covered with images from The Very Hungry Caterpillar story to show the sequence of events and to learn how to code commands for the bot. The book is to the side for reference. A large grid of squares on paper on the floor with colour images in some squares from The Very Hungry Caterpillar story. A Bluebot robot is on the bottom left square ready to move to the images so students can retell the story in sequence.
