Teachers: as the annual #BitcoinConference is currently underway this week in Las Vegas... two questions: 1. Do you personally own any Bitcoin? 2. Do you ever have occasion to introduce anything about Bitcoin as part of any of the curriculum you currently teach? #EMC2Learning #EDUsky

On a Peloton workout today and heard the instructor drop a pretty amazing mantra. “You deserve more than easy.” In an age of so much artificial, this is a powerful reminder that real work is often hard work - isn’t just about finding the fastest shortcut. #EMC2Learning #EDUsky

At the (brick and mortar) bank & need to tell a (flesh and blood) banker why I’d like to wire a chunk of my (fiat) currency. How many of these things will not exist in the same capacity in 20 years? What are schools doing to prepare our students for their future? #EMC2Learning #EDUsky

Google's doodle today is a simple, subtle, and classy way to honor the fallen and commemorate this day where we remember those who've made the ultimate sacrifice. How can we, as teachers, bring similar intentionality into worthy causes within our lesson design? #EMC2Learning #EDUsky

They say your favorite class is the one where that you like the most. But your best class is the one where you learn the most. Do you thing it is possible for a single class to be BOTH of those things? And if so, how? #EDUsky #EMC2Learning

Teachers: How do you feel about receiving PD content that has *clearly* been generated almost entirely by AI? (Podcasts, blog posts, form emails) Now let’s apply the same standard to students on the receiving end of our lesson plans. We all deserve better. #EMC2Learning

John Meehan @meehanedu.bsky.social · 21/05/2025

Hard at work on new resources for #EMC2Learning. Love designing activities that challenge our students to fuse content knowledge with creativity so we can create EPIC learning experiences that last! #EDUsky

Ran a timed mile today for the first time since taking about six weeks off from the gym. Clocked in just under 11 minutes. My last timed mile before the break was just under 8 minutes. Humbling. But a powerful reminder. Consistency always wins. #EMC2Learning #EDUsky

I was scrolling through my timeline & discovered that in the past year, I’d only posted just over 100 times. There was a time not so long ago when I’d literally make 100 posts a week on Twitter or more. What’s the best place for teachers to connect online? #EMC2Learning

John Meehan @meehanedu.bsky.social · 11/05/2025

Educators should take note. When the leader of one of the largest religions on the planet selects a name to reflect the most urgent issues of his time (and directly mentions Artificial Intelligence)… the game has changed. What are our schools doing to meet it? #EMC2Learning

John Meehan @meehanedu.bsky.social · 10/05/2025

Yes to all of this!!! (To say nothing of even broader discussion of ethics, morality, social justice, and the very notion of dignity and human rights) #EDUsky #EMC2Learning

Bitcoin is trading for just over $103K. Whether you believe in crypto or think it’s all just one big pyramid scheme, it’d be PERFECT to explore in our classes. Math (economics) History (research) English (debate /ethics) World Lang (global currencies) Science (environmental impact) #EMC2Learning

This article is paywall protected, but... Is this AI revolution really just saying the quiet part out loud? Students have ALWAYS looked for shortcuts in systems that consistently prize the product over the process. The game is afoot. It’s time for a reset! #EMC2Learning

A word of caution amid a world of AI tools that can now automate so much: Yes, we are tired & overwhelmed. Yes many of these tools promise to make life easier. But. If we want our students to work harder for us, we must be willing to work harder for them. #EMC2Learning

Took a LOT longer than you'd think! But I'm super impressed with this result -- lots of iteration, prompt refinement, and critical thought went into building the "perfect" A.I. action figure.

I’ve been tinkering with ChatGPT’s action figure prompt for days & still can’t quite get it just right. Not gonna lie - I kinda love seeing failures more than the wins!
