Teachers are exhausted and leaving the profession in droves. It's not just the students; it's the overwhelming administrative burden making it impossible to continue. We need to support our educators. #TeacherStruggles #EducationCrisis

•New this week: Canvas in AI Mode gives you a dynamic space to organize your plans and projects over time, and now it’s available to everyone in the US!  Plus, we’re adding support for coding & creative writing tasks, so you can bring even more ideas to life with custom dashboards or interactive tools. My current favorite use case: planning summer camps for my kids in SF. It’s a logistical nightmare 😅 but this year Canvas made life a little easier. I built my personal summer camp app directly in Google Search - from a single prompt to working prototype in just seconds!

Are your students relying too much on AI? In the FlipMastery classroom, students watch videos the night before, preserving their cognition. This approach avoids the 'easy button' and ensures genuine learning, even without digital tools. #EdTech #TeachingStrategies

AI can enhance human connections with students, helping teachers think outside the box. Facing the challenge of grading analog work and limited time for individual feedback, a 'clumping' strategy groups students who finish assignments together #StudentEngagement #TeacherTips
