Great score last night from Too Good To Go. Yes, that is a whole large fresh pizza. We paid about $6 for it. If you don’t have TGTG and you live in an urban area with lots of restaurants, you need this app. tgtg.onelink.me/OGjG/4a7k9x29

California just shipped the first state-level model AI policy for K-12 schools. One state now has a template that 49 others can adopt, adapt, or ignore. The districts that move first will define the national pattern.

I have season tickets to a local theater. Last year and again this year I used Gemini to add the theater dates to my Google Calendar. I took a picture of the tickets. Gave the pic to Gemini and asked it to add the theater events to my calendar. It's a small but satisfying time savings. #gemini

How does teacher @jen.litandtech.com persuade students not to use AI in academically dishonest ways?
“Once my students know that I am knowledgeable, that AI is fallible, and that AI writing is easy to spot, the temptation to use it seems to drop a lot.” Here are her strategies. 💻

Formative assessment that actually helps students while it assesses them? Brisk Boost has become my go-to for reading support.
Students get adaptive support, and I see who needs help in real time. Way better than a quiz.
