A few weeks ago @emollick.bsky.social hyped this alleged study showing positive impact of AI in Nigerian education. Mercifully @ddmeyer.bsky.social has dug into what's really happening so I don't have to, and unsurprisingly, it's a crock. We need to do better. open.substack.com/pub/danmeyer...

If anybody was going to find a way to make generative AI useful for teachers, @ddmeyer.bsky.social was/is the person to do it. This is super interesting and please please PLEASE note how the tech is being used “in the background” to foster good pedagogy.

Interesting piece from @ddmeyer.bsky.social , "Do Kids Want a Personalized Netflix for Education?" open.substack.com/pub/danmeyer...

Dan argues no, we already have it, and it doesn't do the job because it doesn't support the shared communal experience that education is and should be.

Feeling overwhelmed with the talk that "AI" will make teaching easier? Or replace teachers? Will it? I'm not convinced... it lacks the 'humanness' of learning, esp. learning with others. @bsky.app open.substack.com/pub/danmeyer...

This is a good challenge to optimistic notions of AI and 'personalised learning' from Bill Gates via @ddmeyer. It is pragmatic and matters to future plans for tech use (teachers know the optimism crashes into the reality of the classroom):

I'm focused on writing pedagogy and this is about math, but it's directly applicable across subjects in its breakdown of why the AI-tutor future is not one we should embrace, mostly because it won't work and isn't want students want. open.substack.com/pub/danmeyer...
