I don’t know how I feel about the AI stuff yet. I am an early childhood educator who believes firmly in developmentally appropriate, play based, hands-on learning and I don’t see where AI fits into any child’s education in elementary school. We have too many kids who are not mastering the basic reading-writing-math skills and adding AI is not going to help any of these kids.
I do agree with going back to basics on basing discipline on behavior. Maybe if kids had actual consequences, and parents and students were held accountable, better behavior would be taught and expected, and teachers could get back to teaching academics.
Couldn't agree more with the Massachusetts Elementary School Teacher's comments about discipline and behavior. Regarding AI, it’s one thing to hear all the buzz about it, but another to figure out how to use it meaningfully when I barely have time to eat lunch. I’d be more open to it if there were examples that felt relevant to my subject and grade level, plus actual PD that respects our time.
Your guess is as good as mine. It sounds like the EO will provide funding for teacher training. This is great in theory, but until it actually happens, I'm going to remain skeptical. This administration has seemingly had education in its crosshairs from day one, now they want to throw government money toward it??
