Soccer has never been about just geography. It's values, what you believe in and stand for. This is a re-introduction to fans who agree that a #DifferentKindOfSoccerIsPossible.

We'll be telling stories, and fostering a community that supports soccer centered in values, community and solidarity.

If you work in a field that involves relationship and relation building (education, mental health, etc.) how transparent should one be with people that what they're reading or seeing is generated by AI?

This data also confirms something for me:

Utilizing a Flipped Classroom + In-Class Paper and Pen for early unit content mastery is crucial before AI use.

But if I write firstβ€”then engage in deep, critical dialogues with AI during revision?

Not only does my writing improve, but my understanding of my own project deepens.

My awareness expands.

(I’ll have to get an EEG at home to track my brain activity next.)

The state of research on AI and education from controlled studies: Growing evidence that, when used as a tutor with instructor guidance, AI seems to have quite significant positive effects. When used alone to get help with homework, it can act as shortcut that hurts learning.

Still early days.

New controlled study of AI voice mode on mental health finds complex results:

GPT-4 with an empathetic voice reduced loneliness, but heavier users, and especially when use was combined with a more neutral voice or those with particular personalities, had multiple negative impacts on users.

I never understood the debate on this. I read aloud to students on a daily basis & most educators agree how important it is. They count it as β€œreading” even though very few kids are following the text as I read.

AUDIOBOOKS ARE READING. ❀️ πŸ“š

We're not done yet | 18F

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F.

18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it.

We made this website to tell our story:

If you have zero education, but learn how to ask AI models the right questions , in many jobs you will be able to outperform someone with an advanced degree, but who is unwilling to use Large Language Models.

Just takes a smartphone, curiosity to experiment and a mindset to learn.

AI Tool Demo: Creative Uses for ChatGPT in History and ELA Assistant editor Daniel Leonard shares a few interesting applications of ChatGPT that teachers have adopted to drive critical thinking and deeper analysis.

You’re probably familiar with ChatGPT. But have you ever asked it to imitate a historical figure? πŸ«… Or output a poem that students can compare to a Shakespeare sonnet? πŸ“œ

Edutopia’s @dalorleon.bsky.social showcases a few innovative, teacher-tested uses of the tool.
