Anthropic's AI approach prioritizes educator agency

Such a timely milestone as #AI continues to transform education globally! I'm deeply excited that the Teach For All network will be at the forefront of shaping this future—and I couldn't agree more that #AI #education must be shaped by the teachers who are addressing equity gaps and system-entrenched challenges every day to enable millions of our children to access quality education and shape better futures for themselves and all of us. As Wendy Kopp powerfully articulates: "For AI to reach its potential to make education more equitable, teachers need to be the ones shaping how it's used and providing input on how it's designed. Our partnership with #Anthropic is helping educators across our network experiment with and learn from these tools firsthand, as co-creators of AI's role in education." This is exactly the kind of leadership we need—putting teachers at the center as co-architects, not passive consumers.

“Deep collaboration across educators, researchers, and product developers is critical.” ⬆️⬆️⬆️ This is what the AIMS Collaboratory is all about. Research-based, collaborative R&D. AI tools should strengthen core instructional goals, fit into real classroom workflows, and be developed and refined through research–practice partnerships alongside teachers and districts. #MathEducation #AIinEducation https://lnkd.in/gG28N-BG

What's AI's real impact on students? A recent study found that, when meaningfully guided by teachers, students use AI to deepen learning and improve critical thinking, not make it superficial 💡 "The research shows that when teachers lead the design, AI can strengthen critical thinking, increase engagement, and support responsible instruction across classrooms," reports eSchool News about AI tools in the classroom. 📖 Read the full piece here: https://lnkd.in/eHuQ3PT6 #AIineducation #k12teachers #k12education #teacherlife #edtech #quizli #madewithappli

Generative AI is reshaping K��12 education—but the conversation must go deeper than adoption. At EDspaces, we examine how emerging technologies influence not just instruction, but the broader ecosystem of teaching, learning, and space. This recent article breaks down: · What current research tells us about generative AI in schools · Where critical gaps remain—especially around long-term cognitive impact · Why sustained professional learning is central to responsible implementation · What school leaders should prioritize next AI in education is not a product discussion. It is a systems discussion—about pedagogy, policy, equity, and the environments that support them.

From the classroom to the boardroom, problem-solving is a valuable soft skill. But as students increasingly offload their problem-solving tasks to AI, do we need to focus more on developing their "problem-finding" skills? A new literature review from researchers at WestEd and Google suggests that we do. These findings struck me because they validate the sense that in the age of AI, we'll have to do things differently to help students retain the ability to think for themselves. (Whether that's fair, especially when teachers and students already have so much on their shoulders, is another question.) In WestEd's latest blog post, find out more about what the researchers mean by "problem-finding" and its role in the future of learning in the AI era.

🚨 AI in Education - It’s time to get practical. With the Department for Education recently publishing their Generative AI product safety standards, the message to schools is shifting. We are moving away from the initial panic and into a phase of regulation, safety, and - crucially - integration. You can read the full DfE guidance here: https://lnkd.in/epAWbFCt But what does this actually mean for the classroom teacher on a Monday morning? For many, the headlines about "safety standards" and "algorithms" just add another layer of anxiety to an already overflowing workload. There is a genuine fear that AI is either too complex to manage safely or, worse, that it’s here to replace the human element of teaching. We need to flip that narrative. 🔄 AI isn't about replacing you; it’s about replacing the hours you spend on administration so you can focus on teaching. It’s time to remove the fear and just give it a go. We are thrilled to be hosting a dedicated webinar: "AI CPD for Teachers: Advancing Practice to Improve Workflow." This session is designed specifically to upskill teachers who want to harness these tools to reclaim their evenings and weekends. We are cutting through the noise to show you exactly how to use these tools safely and effectively. We are delighted to have Martin Bailey leading this session. As the Director of Animate 2 Educate and a Lecturer in Primary Computing at Sunderland University, Martin bridges the gap between high-level tech and practical, primary classroom needs. In this session, we will explore: 🤖 The Toolkit: A deep dive into accessible tools like Notebook LM, GivEducation, and Gemini. 📝 Workflow: How to speed up planning and resource creation instantly. yw Inclusion: Using AI to create rapid, high-quality SEND adaptations to ensure every child is supported. This isn't a lecture on coding; it is a practical guide to freeing up your precious time. Event Details: 📅 Date: Monday, 26 January ⏰ Time: 3:40pm - 5:00pm (Perfect for after the bell!) 💻 Location: Online via Zoom 🎟️ Cost: Just £20 Don't let the tech leave you behind. Join us, ask questions, and leave with a toolkit you can use the very next day.
