#edtech — Public Fediverse posts

Students today learn in a fast digital world filled with notifications, short videos, and quick answers. Creating “slow learning” spaces helps students think deeply, reflect, and truly understand what they learn. This modern education trend supports student well-being, balanced technology use, mindfulness, and deeper learning instead of rushing through lessons.

#EdTech #SlowLearning #K12Education

Technology is helping quiet students participate more confidently in class. Tools like polls, chats, discussion boards, and AI learning apps give students new ways to share ideas without the pressure of speaking in front of everyone. Modern classrooms are becoming more inclusive, allowing every student to have a voice and build confidence through digital learning.

New open-access working paper:

"Infrastructure as Curriculum: What Students Learn When AI Works Offline"

When AI runs offline on local devices, its limits become visible — and visible limits ask students to verify, author, and trust calibratedly.

Goedemorgen. Vroeg op, want ik ga zo naar één van onze locaties voor een (terugkerende) schoolbrede mbo-conferentie. Naast contact met collega’s over de inzet van technologie, is er ook een demonstratie mbt de inzet van #VR door de collega’s paraveterinair. Zij werken met een virtuele dierenartsenpraktijk, om te oefenen met zowel klantcontact maar ook met medische handelingen. Verschilt eigenlijk niet eens zo heel veel van de gewone zorg.

The best AI tools in education are not the ones that give direct answers — they are the ones that encourage curiosity. Modern learning is shifting toward critical thinking, creativity, and problem-solving. AI can support this by guiding students with questions, hints, and exploration instead of instant solutions. The goal is not just smarter technology, but smarter and more curious learners.

Ah, the good ol' days of 'view source' helping teach people how to make the web.

This was a *literacy* tool. You could see the layer underneath the interface. AI has no equivalent.

#Canvas #EdTech #ShinyHunters #Hack #Privacy #Education

If anyone is bored this weekend - and wants to help the edu sector out in the wake of the Canvas LMS attacks - take a gander at the recently implemented and forthcoming security patches in Canvas LMS and see what you might glean. Instructure - the company that was attacked - has provided scant technical details on how initial access and exfil happened - and as a result customers (schools and universities) are left unsure as to how to trust the software or what mitigations to put in place.

Instructure has said the attack was "carried out...by exploiting an issue related to our Free-For-Teacher accounts" https://www.instructure.com/incident_update

Precautionary UX changes made by Instructure in response https://community.instructure.com/en/discussion/666044/incident-change-log-for-may-2026

Instructure Enforcements, Deprecations, and Breaking Changes (which contain some upcoming security related changes): https://community.instructure.com/en/kb/articles/664261-instructure-enforcements-deprecations-and-breaking-changes

May be other threads to pull; this is being actively worked on by many.

Thank you!

"We conclude that institutions of higher education are currently ill-equipped to protect students and faculty required to use the #canvas #Instructure #LMS from data harvesting or exploitation." #edtech https://www.researchgate.net/publication/341046070_The_case_of_Canvas_Longitudinal_datafication_through_learning_management_systems

Canvas LMS suffered a major cyberattack on May 8 that locked thousands of students out during finals week. The platform was hit by a group linked to ShinyHunters, preventing access to assignments, grades, and course materials at the worst possible time.

Static #eportfolio sites for students would be nice, too (or #SolidProject pods or #ATProto PDS sites), at least for college students developing their professional identities. Combining that w/chat, social networking and #OpenBadges is a better foundation than building everything around an enterprise #LMS gradebook. Need better moderation and #E2EE privacy controls though. Have your students vibe code their own final exams in the meantime while Canvas is down ;)

LEGO Education 2026: Новые наборы? Новая электроника? Новая образовательная парадигма

В 2026 году LEGO Education делает ход, который ещё пару лет назад казался невозможным: - компания отказывается от собственной робототехнической платформы, - снижает роль программирования и внедряет элементы ИИ в образовательном курсе, - заменяет хабы… карточками NFC. Очередная смена поколений электрики, наборов и деталей? Или пересмотр стратегии модели STEM-образования? В статье раскрываем картину происходящего.
