[quote=Anonymous]I’m a teacher/librarian, and I completely agree. It wasn’t the Covid closures that wrecked education, it was the switch to one to one devices. My students’ interest in reading has nosedived in the last five years. And why shouldn’t it? They use devices for every task in the classroom, including reading instruction. We know from research that the best predictor of good reading skills is time spent reading books, and yet we don’t make that the core of our literacy curriculum anymore. I’m hearing from admin and instructional facilitators how great AI is and how it will help me do my job better. It’s truly disturbing. Using AI to write objectives or questions for a lessons is insane. Teachers should know their content and goals well enough to do that easily. I suspect in 10 or 20 years we will be ashamed of this era of education.[/quote]
