"[I]n all industrial change of the past, there have been some jobs created, some jobs lost." #edtech #ILoveEdTech #ImFutureReady #elearning #AIEdu

"[T]he most popular use of AI was drafting communications to parents and carers, followed by research topics and writing policies or risk assessments. Respondents also use it to help write nativity plays, update the school website, and rewrite job adverts." #edtech #ILoveEdTech #ImFutureReady #AIEdu

"Agency decay is the gradual erosion of a person’s ability and willingness to observe carefully, think independently, choose deliberately, and act responsibly. It does not arise because AI is inherently harmful...[but] when convenience becomes the default" #edtech #ILoveEdTech #ImFutureReady #AIEdu

"But when AI can produce all of them, written artifacts can no longer serve reliably as evidence of student understanding. That is the specific challenge online educators face" #edtech #ILoveEdTech #ImFutureReady #elearning #AIEdu

"Institutions that focus solely on knowledge transmission risk undermining student outcomes over time, as such approaches primarily exercise memory, recall, and associative thinking skills." #edtech #ILoveEdTech #ImFutureReady #elearning #AIEdu

"[W]hen it comes to measuring the student-learning outcomes of various ed-tech programs, the results often only apply to the 5 percent of students who 'used the program as intended. The other 95 percent see minimal gains, if any.'” #edtech #ILoveEdTech #ImFutureReady #elearning #AIEdu

"[G]enerative AI carries environmental consequences that include increased electricity demand, associated carbon emissions, and increased water consumption to cool computing hardware (Zewe, 2025)." #edtech #ILoveEdTech #ImFutureReady #elearning #AIEdu

"Critical thinking, judgment and the ability to evaluate AI output sit at the center of that tension." #edtech #ILoveEdTech #ImFutureReady #elearning #AIEdu

"[A]n AIBOM is a 'repository or inventory'...that can be read by your machines, by your systems, and it [includes] your data sets, your prompts, your models, your specific configurations, version history, pipelines and third-party dependencies.” #edtech #ILoveEdTech #ImFutureReady #AIEdu

"The Agentic Professor is a construct that helps colleges and universities explore how AI agents providing scalable, long-term personalized instruction could reshape teaching, assessment, and ultimately the role of faculty." #edtech #ILoveEdTech #ImFutureReady #elearning #AIEdu

"One of the challenges that online instructors face is creating a sense of connectedness in which students feel present, “seen,” heard, and part of the learning community." #edtech #ILoveEdTech #ImFutureReady #elearning

"As institutions explore AI-powered applications for learning, research, enrollment, and campus operations, many IT leaders are facing an important question: Is campus infrastructure ready to support AI reliably, securely, and at scale?" #edtech #ILoveEdTech #ImFutureReady #elearning #AIEdu

"The pause on AI tools comes amid public concerns over the technology’s ability to safeguard student data and well-being as well as questions about whether AI can actually improve learning outcomes." #edtech #ILoveEdTech #ImFutureReady #elearning #AIEdu

"When schools make decisions about artificial intelligence, the conversation is usually led by adults...but...there is another important voice that is often included only after the decisions have been made, and that is the students who are already using AI" #edtech #ILoveEdTech #ImFutureReady #AIEdu

"Everyone knows a bad course when they see one. But few of us can articulate what makes it bad. When I looked across a year of teardowns, however, the same three problems kept surfacing." #edtech #ILoveEdTech #ImFutureReady #elearning

"One of the greatest takeaways from Clark’s findings is that research often validates simpler design, interface, and animations as more effective learning tools." #edtech #ILoveEdTech #ImFutureReady #elearning

"This is not an argument for replacing the resume with a portfolio. A resume should remain the structured record. But there is a practical opportunity to connect a few important claims to evidence that helps another person understand the work." #edtech #ILoveEdTech #ImFutureReady #elearning #AIEdu

"Understanding why the same technology can appear inept in one setting and highly capable in another can help schools use it more effectively while managing its risks." #edtech #ILoveEdTech #ImFutureReady #elearning #AIEdu
