“In Japan, the idea is that children are the collective responsibility of society to keep safe. It’s a choice that they made. For the life of me I can’t decide why we’ve chosen something different”

Can teachers spot essays written by ChatGPT? Anecdotes abound, but we have data! We included 8 ChatGPT essays in our Y4 assessment of 50k pieces of writing. 12k teachers judged them & we offered a prize for spotting the ChatGPT ones!

The fact that Chat GPT seems to have come as a bit of a whirlwind surprise to some educators has scarier implications than the ‘program’ itself.

We live in a country where a 6 year old has access to a loaded handgun and uses it to shoot their teacher at school. AND this story isn’t even the top headline for most national news organizations this morning. Let that sink in. – at Seattle, WA

Washington State friends, NOW is the time to contact your state reps to let them know that EVERY STUDENT in our state deserves access to a credentialed teacher librarian. Call your reps NOW and say you want them to support bill S5102. #NCCE #WAleg #WAedu 🙏🏻

OK so I'm usually on the skeptical side of things when it comes to AI stuff but I think chat.openai.com may actually spell the end of writing assignments? Where the hell do educators even go from here? (below: a question I just asked on a midterm, and the AI's response)

1) Teachers aren’t hiding porn in classroom libraries or school libraries. 2) Schools don’t have litter boxes for kids. 3) K-12 teachers don’t teach CRT. Enough.

to keep up w/ audible, spotify is now selling audiobooks. do NOT buy from either of these brands. there's an app called Libby which is 100% FREE that has thousands of old & brand new audiobooks and all you need is your library card number!
