How do women do it? I know exactly where my contacts, pens, checks, bills, pills, phone, etc are located. Replacing my 8 year old briefcase with a new one means I can't find anything. My wife juggles six handbags and can find anything in 3 seconds. Is it the XX chromosomes?

The latest AI doesn't just assist - "it replaces the very struggle that leads to growth. AI isn't just a neutral tool - it's a detriment to helping students become confident writers & critical thinkers." - history teacher David Cutler on Medium #aiforstudents #AIinEducation

This post nails the proper role of AI. “Creative concepts usually come from a human experience.” AI is an assistant, not a replacement.

Learning is a compounding game. It’s about steady growth over time not momentary performance. This is why retrieval practice, daily review, and spacing are so powerful. They convert momentary effort into lasting advantage. We often judge students by where they are now. Their

🔥⚽️ We all know #Messi is a lefty, so his right-footed strikes? Pure magic✨These gems keep defenders guessing and prove his mastery. Unforgettable moment vs Boateng in 2015 and recent beaut against Bolivia at 8:26. His "weak" foot is anything but weak youtu.be/v3h5QHJbmog
