My 9th graders now have full access to Gemini, so my goal isn’t to block AI. It’s to teach them to stay the author. Lochlin drafted his memoir by hand, then used Gemini as a second reader, keeping his voice & tossing what didn’t sound like him. AI as mirror, not ghostwriter. #AIinEducation #EduSky

The clock’s ticking, essays stacked, & that voice whispers: AI could grade faster. Tempting. But I’d miss the human moments. Like when a student stopped by & I’d just graded her essay. Stunning. The pride on her face: Worth every minute. AI’s efficient. But it can’t feel that. #AIinEducation #AIWW

Teaching isn’t just “great tutoring.” It’s trust, relationships, creativity, & seeing the whole human. AI is a tool, only as powerful as the humans who wield it. Is Gates underestimating the human side, or am I overestimating it? #EduSky #AIinEducation #iTeachEnglish #AIWW #EduSkyAI bit.ly/4nieQQ

Just because AI can grade student writing doesn’t mean it should. Our students don’t write to impress a rubric—they write to be heard. Let’s not hand their voices over to the algorithm. www.eschoolnews.com/digital-lear... #EduSky #AIinEducation #iTeachEnglish #EdTech #AIWW

These are the real Qs educators are asking about #AI —not just how to use it, but how to use it ethically, authentically, & in ways that deepen learning. This is what the front lines of education look like: thoughtful, curious, & deeply human. How would you respond? #EduSkyAI #AIWW #AIinEducation

Icebreaker idea: 1. Introduce yourself as a word you love (like “serendipity” or “bananas”) 2. Mix words. Pass back out at random + a random image 3. Write a quick story or poem on or alongside the image Silly, creative, and builds instant community. Try it. You’ll love it. We sure did. #EduSky

AI is exposing the cracks in practices that may have gone unchallenged for too long. When the focus is purely on product, it’s easy for AI to step in. But when we shift toward reflection, process, and authentic engagement, the work becomes human again. #EduSkyAI #AIinEducation #iTeachEnglish #AIWW

The sky isn't falling; it's shifting. Workshop classrooms don’t fear AI- we reframe it. Students write in class; receive feedback from teachers & SS. They reflect on their process & learn to use AI ethically, not hide it. Most importantly: they develop voice, thinking, and ownership. #EduSkyAI #AIWW
