Two #GirlsWhoGame veteran competitors are sharing their perspective on the esports game. "It gave me a chance to learn more and think with my friends. It was amazing!"

Pedagogical Shoutcasting identifies the Essential Skills and Global Competencies being used during the #GirlsWhoGame esports event. My colleague @foss_j12 is rocking it with her identification of the critical thinking being used in this design challenge.

Great session with Stephen Pruitt thinking about the role of teachers in STEM workforce development. "Rich learning comes from those who have in-depth knowledge and a passion for their students."

Best two quotes from Stephen Pruitt "We need to make teaching more like a Hallmark movie and less like a Lifetime movie." And "Maybe we get back to when we remembered that teachers are heros everyday they enter that classroom."

From Chancellor Melissa Aviles-Ramos" As I have visited classrooms, I am blown away by the commitment and ability of the teachers. Yet we are still not helping every student. It's a system problem. We have to have a level of clarity around why we have youth engage with the school experience."

"Why do we send our children to school in the first place?" NYC Chancellor asked this question at the start of the #NYCSchoolsTech summit today. Without that shared clarity, change is difficult.

I really like this idea. I wonder if we always make sure the 'relevance statement' includes the skill/disposition that they are working on as your example does.

A colleague of mine and I have been discussing how we take the complexity of professional growth and learning and help create 'easy buttons' that simplify the lift but still ensure quality learning. I think this is a great example of that!

First, this is just funny. BUT think about the way we talk in education. How can we refocus on fun and purpose in our thinking and language?

Going to be at a full day, only in-person event. I need a backchannel tool since we won't have the normal chat tool. Discuss....

Playing with ChatGPT right now with the amazing Michael Jabbour. Here is my major take-away: Build a logical model through a conversation (it is a CHATbot) to then provide more meaningful output. Then, apply your own experience to what is given to ask refining questions.

Panel discussing AI in education. I love that the question of how we ensure we address both issues of embedded bias and equity of use is front and center.
