“AI automates execution, forcing us to compete on higher-level cognitive skills – strategy, creativity, taste, critical analysis, and the relentless patience to iterate and refine ideas beyond the AI’s initial output. We get a “return on the relinquished task,” much like how offloading navigation via GPS frees up mental bandwidth for other things.”
Every week I send out articles I encounter from around the web. Subject matter ranges from hard knowledge about teaching to research about creativity and cognitive science to stories from other industries that, by analogy, inform what we do as educators. This breadth helps us see our work in new ways.
Readers include teachers, school leaders, university overseers, conference organizers, think tank workers, startup founders, nonprofit leaders, and people who are simply interested in what’s happening in education. They say it helps them keep tabs on what matters most in the conversation surrounding schools, teaching, learning, and more.
