  1. Poll: Please boot for reach

    Premised on the notion of evidence based policy and practice, if we accept that substantive critical reviews have found that research demonstrates EdTech to be of very limited benefit in secondary education (and often somewhat detrimental), do educators and departments of education have a duty to structure curricula and approved materials to exclude use of EdTech outside of explicitly CompSci oriented subject matter?

  2. We were talking about this in the office the other day. We teachers aren't Luddites, but the more technology (and cheating) advances, the more we've had to go back to pen and paper supervised assessments to combat it.

  3. I encourage museums to explore their maths links because I think there are major opportunities to enrich teaching and learning in BOTH maths and history: it goes both ways.

    And in exploring the other direction, I (along with my research partner Jason) did a project in which we taught a half-term of maths lessons according to the maths department's usual Scheme of Work, except we added History content to every lesson.

    Our research paper has been published:

    Integrating history into mathematics teaching: An empirical study on years 7 & 8 students - tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10

  4. Digesting Food Studies (the CFS podcast)—Episode 102: Teaching about Food Studies

    rss.com/podcasts/digesting-foo

    Learning about food and food systems goes way beyond classroom lectures, involving #power and #justice, #reciprocity and #listening, getting your hands into #soil and getting your heart in a roil. It’s a full mind-body experience!

    This episode features Jennifer Sumner and Michael Classens, two leaders in critical teaching and learning about food systems—and guest editors of the Food Pedagogies issue of Canadian Food Studies (Vol. 8 No. 4)… Alexia Moyer explores the kinds of school environments that support food learning before post-secondary education, and in the “After Taste,” Eric Schofield responds to “Toward a Common Understanding of Food Literacy,” by Kimberley Hernandez, Doris Gillis, Kathleen Kevany, and Sara Kirk.

  8. We remember being the newcomer asking basic questions, and now we find ourselves sharing hard-earned wisdom with the next generation. This cycle keeps our culture alive and growing.
    Share this with someone who taught you and someone you've taught. Knowledge flows both directions.
    When did you realize you'd become the experienced builder others looked to for advice? Growth happens gradually.

  9. 🎙️ The desk of a podcaster 🙈
    Had a wonderful conversation with Dr Mais Fatayer and Dr Julian Pakay, today, all about using OER to address teaching challenges and whether there are some things open ed can do that AI can’t 🤔

    Keep an eye out for Julian’s episode of #SpeakingOfOpen coming soon to earbuds near you 🤩

    I’m off to go translate all these notes into a legible format so we can get this episode to you before the month is out 🥳

  13. At a teaching and learning conference and using a chatbot as an interactive partner for students in assignments seems to be the trend of the day.

    In some cases, it makes sense. But in a lot of the examples, I want to say: or, have ANOTHER STUDENT be the interactive partner?

  14. This panel explores the shift from keyword-based searches to conversational, #AI-driven queries. You'll hear about a university’s #GenAI pilot project, insights from an academic publisher on the development of AI-enhanced platforms, and strategies for integrating GenAI into information literacy frameworks.
