There is little point in creating #Moodle reports if people don't use them. I have added a reporting feature to my reportsources plugin to track usage. It does not rely on logstore_standard_log

AI in classrooms isn’t about convenience, it’s about control, privacy, and accountability. Proprietary software puts schools at the mercy of black-box systems they can’t inspect. My latest piece makes the case for open, auditable alternatives.

After 1,900 signatures and months of waiting, we received a reply from the BC Ministry of Education.

They said "it's not our responsibility".

This is another example of federal and provincial governments prioritizing AI over human well-being.

Oh, how revolutionary! 🎉 Another app promising to teach you everything from Mongol War Tactics to Quantum Physics, just with videos and games. Because nothing says "top-tier education" like a couple of multiple-choice questions and some swipes. 🙄 Bravo, #YCombinator, for backing this groundbreaking innovation! 💡

A teacher assigns one video on photosynthesis. Twenty minutes later, the student's deep in a Shorts spiral about moon-landing conspiracies. 🌗 That's YouTube in classroom.

NoSuggest (https://nosuggest.com) fixes that. It's free-forever, source-available PWA that strips out recommendations, Shorts, auto-play, and trending feeds. Students see only the channel their teacher assigned — nothing else pulling them away.
