AI Grading: Fast, But Can You Trust It?

Just read about a UGA study where AI graded science homework way faster than teachers—but it kinda missed the point half the time! The AI mostly looked for keywords instead of real understanding, and only got it right a third of the time without a detailed rubric. With better instructions, it did a bit better, but teachers still aren’t off the hook. Cool tech, but not ready to take over grading just yet! #AIinEducation #EdTech #TeacherLife #ArtificialIntelligence #UGA #Education

Is Real-Time AI Feedback the Future of Writing?

Level Up, a new AI-powered tool, is changing how students write by offering instant, interactive feedback right inside Google Docs. Instead of just fixing grammar, it nudges students to sharpen arguments and organize thoughts—no shortcuts, just smarter writing. But does this real-time coaching help students think deeper, or does it risk making writing too easy? Would you want this in your classroom or workplace? #AIinEducation #EdTech #CriticalThinking #FutureOfLearning #StudentSuccess #Tech

Is Coding Dead or Just Evolving?

Stefania Druga from Google DeepMind says coding isn’t dead—it’s how we teach it that needs a reboot. She argues kids should learn AI literacy early, not just to use tech, but to co-create with it. If AI can ace your homework, maybe we’re asking the wrong questions. Should we rethink assignments and let students build with AI, not just use it as a shortcut? What’s the real future of coding in an AI-first world? #AILiteracy #FutureOfCoding #EdTech #AIinEducation #TechDebate #Tech

PowerSchool’s Ransom Regret

Plot twist: PowerSchool paid hackers to delete stolen student data, but—shocker—the crooks didn’t keep their word. Now, schools and families are getting hit with fresh extortion threats months after the breach. Turns out, trusting cybercriminals is about as smart as giving your lunch money to the school bully and expecting your homework back. Experts say paying up just fuels more attacks. Would you ever trust a hacker’s pinky promise? #cybersecurity #databreach #ransomware #edtech #PowerSchool #Education

Should AI Be Taught in Grade School?

China is teaching 6-year-olds how to use artificial intelligence, and now over 250 top CEOs—including those from Microsoft and Airbnb—want the U.S. to catch up. They argue that making computer science and AI classes mandatory could unlock billions in economic potential and help future-proof our kids. But is early AI education the answer, or are we moving too fast? Would you want your child learning AI before algebra? Let’s debate! #AIinEducation #TechLiteracy #FutureSkills #EdTech #InnovationDebate #Tech

Is Gamified Language Learning the Next Power Move?

Qlango is shaking up how entrepreneurs break language barriers, turning language learning into a competitive, game-like experience. With over 50 languages and smart, spaced repetition, it’s not just about memorizing words—it’s about mastering real-world business communication. But does this tech-driven approach really give global professionals an edge, or are we overestimating the power of gamification? Curious to hear if anyone’s tried it for serious business deals! #LanguageTech #GlobalBusiness #EdTech #Gamification #TechDebate #Tech

Is Tech Really Leveling the Classroom?

Let’s talk about the digital gap in schools. We all love the idea of every student having a laptop and fast internet, but is that really happening? Some schools are still struggling with just a handful of devices for hundreds of students, while others are fully wired. As tech evolves—think satellite internet and budget-friendly tablets—will these innovations finally close the gap, or just move it? What’s your take on the future of digital equity in education? #DigitalDivide #EdTech #TechEquity #FutureOfLearning #EducationDebate #Tech

Can AI Help Us Outsmart Our Own Biases?

Generative AI is everywhere in academia, but are we getting too comfortable trusting its outputs? The DeBiasMe project is shaking things up by teaching students to spot their own cognitive biases when working with AI. Instead of just accepting what the algorithm says, these new frameworks encourage deliberate friction and adaptive scaffolding. Is this the key to smarter, more critical AI use—or just another layer of complexity? Let’s debate: Should AI challenge us more, or make things easier? #AIethics #HumanAICollaboration #Metacognition #BiasInAI #EdTech #Tech
