I'm speaking at the @SolutionTree Effective Coaching Institute in Orlando, September 22-24. Transform how you coach individuals AND collaborative teams with proven tools and processes. Register:. Hope to see you there!

Great conversation with @MrZachG about AI and learning science in education. Is AI really going to revolutionize teaching, or are we getting ahead of ourselves? .

New study: Teachers evaluating identical AI feedback showed significant variation in quality ratings. We know feedback should be specific, timely, actionable. AI systems need to account for: lesson context, student readiness, instructional goals. Read more:

New study on AI overreliance. We're not just dealing with AI dependency but accelerated erosion of thinking skills already under pressure. Learning is transformation, not transaction.

Study: ChatGPT users had lower brain activity and couldn't recall their writing. When we outsource cognitive work, we don't learn. We're not just grappling with AI overreliance but an accelerated erosion of intellectual habits already under pressure.

Paper:

New research shows AI can analyze student "clickstreams" to identify learning strategies in real-time. It can detect systematic vs. random exploration, strategic vs. premature help-seeking, gaming vs. genuine engagement.

Why ten-frames work: They build System 1 visual patterns (automatic recognition) that support System 2 reasoning (flexible thinking about 5+3, 4+4, etc.). Dual processing in action! #iteachmath #tenframes #mtbos.

Paper:

Biomedical professionals train in AI using "learning personas" - 6 different pathways but same core concepts. Everyone learned ethics/fundamentals through their professional lens. Could work for K-12: universal AI literacy via personalized doorways.

Every convenience is a cognitive capacity we're trading away. Don't let AI turn your brain into digital jello. Stay sharp:. -Mental math while shopping. -Navigate without GPS. -Memorize phone numbers and lines of poetry. -Do hard things: chess, puzzles, music, languages.

This "unplugged" approach teaches students to think critically about AI algorithmic decisions.

Really interesting new finding: students were tested on the same reasoning puzzles used to benchmark AI. Three distinct mental models emerged about how AI "thinks.". We need to completely rethink AI literacy based on developmental stages.

Study after study compares "AI + extra support" vs "regular instruction" and declares AI works. You're not testing AI. You're testing whether doing more stuff helps kids learn. I created the Educational AI Sanity Framework to help you navigate. #edtech .
