📚 Testing week reminder: Your students' brains learn better with spaced practice. The science is clear: distribute study sessions over time, use active retrieval, and prioritize sleep. Winter break isn't lost time—it's when the brain consolidates learning. 🧠✨ #TestingTips

Studies show AI increases: ✅ Metacognitive strategies ✅ Collaborative inquiry ✅ Creative thinking ✅ Revision skills But ONLY when implementation is intentional. Tune in as we break down the research + share classroom stories. Listen: ow.ly/EmnQ50XGnyG

🧵 "AI won't destroy education—it's destroying our current UNDERSTANDING of what education is like." Middle school teacher Ryan Marklewitz spent his master's thesis researching AI in education. What he found might surprise you. 🧠 New podcast episode 👇 ow.ly/EmnQ50XGnyG
