Part 2 of my blog posts wrapping up my @LDNsCall presentation looks into answering the question 'What does good look like?' and how @CRM_Analytics can help you get the most. What is the point of capturing all this data if you never use it?

The Homework Apocalypse is coming this Fall.
AI completely changes how students will relate to homework like essays, problem sets & readings. And it isnโt just because of cheating (though that happens too). Some examples, and thoughts about what to do: oneusefulthing.org/p/the-homโฆ
