"AI has the potential to reflect our existing power structures, but—if used intelligently and critically—it can also be deployed to help disrupt them." #edtech #ILoveEdTech #ImFutureReady #elearning #AIEdu
"[A]sk someone about a story that moved them, even one they heard years ago, and the details come back instantly: the character, the moment of tension, what they would have done differently." #edtech #ILoveEdTech #ImFutureReady #elearning #AIEdu
"Orally or in discussion postings, students engage complex ideas but struggle to demonstrate comparable reasoning in writing for assignments. The writing describes what authors wrote..rather than effectively synthesizing sources into the context for their writing" #edtech #ILoveEdTech #ImFutureReady

As AI becomes more integrated into higher education, institutions must address ethics, including representation, sourcing, modeling and accountability.
"In 2026, over half of all web traffic is generated by bots, not humans (Computing, 2026). The most damning part is not the rise of the bots. It is that most of us did not notice when the internet stopped being… ours." #edtech #ILoveEdTech #ImFutureReady #elearning #AIEdu
"On convenience, abdication, and the quiet erosion of the open web. The internet isn’t dying. That’s the problem."

"As AI continues to evolve, universities will need to help students develop both technical fluency and critical awareness. The goal is to prepare them to engage with these tools thoughtfully and productively." #edtech #ILoveEdTech #ImFutureReady #elearning #AIEdu
"Beyond devising ways to make sure students don’t stunt their own learning by over-relying on AI,...questions remain on how to best help them master another facet of AI literacy: telling fact from fiction" #edtech #ILoveEdTech #ImFutureReady #elearning #AIEdu
"Without reliable information about how many students are using AI and how they are using it, college administrators risk designing policies based on assumptions rather than evidence." #edtech #ILoveEdTech #ImFutureReady #elearning #AIEdu

"I once had an SVP tell me, “Don’t ever talk to me about a problem unless you have options to solve them.” Fair point. So here’s what actually works.
Real AI governance doesn’t live in a framework. It shows up in how decisions get made, how people work, and more importantly, in what teams no longer have to think about."

"Growing up in the 1980s and 1990s, I remember spending countless hours with Atari, Nintendo, and Gameboy. At the time, these consoles seemed to reshape childhood overnight, even if parents were skeptical. My mother often told me to stop playing, assuming the games had no long-term benefit. Today, that assumption feels outdated. The video game industry, now exceeding $160 billion, plays a significant role in shaping education and professional opportunities. Beyond its entertainment value, gaming has evolved into a cultural phenomenon with lasting implications for communication, collaboration, and learning."
