Will Education be Better Off?
The debate question for this week was, “Will AI technologies revolutionize education for the better?”. This was a question that I think had many factors playing a part in my response to this. It feels like a loaded question and all I can think to say is, “It’s not that simple!”. It really isn’t. I…

Who’s Responsibility is it, Really?
This was a very interesting topic and both debate groups did an excellent job of sharing their viewpoints & trying to persuade the audience.

You Mean We’re in The Future?
To put it simply, I was absolutely speechless & mind blown. I honestly hadn’t heard about ChatGPT or AI before last class and it definitely came as a shock. After I was finally able to process what I was being told, I was quite intrigued. I wanted to know more! I definitely enjoyed the class…

Tech Savvy Millennial? Not Quite.
Hello, I am so excited for this class, however, I have to admit that I am slightly nervous. I’ve been teaching for 5 years and definitely feel like I fall into the stereotype of being ‘tech savvy’ because I am a young teacher. I’ve had teachers reach out to me asking questions or assuming I…
