AI was built for boardroom efficiency, not classroom learning. Education is intentionally inefficient because learning itself is a slow process. This fundamental disconnect fuels the misuse of AI in schools. #EdTech #AIinEducation

Learning is messy and happens through struggle and friction. Trying to reduce that friction, like using a forklift in a weight room with ChatGPT, hinders actual learning. Embrace the productive struggle. #Learning #GrowthMindset

Traditional teaching spends most class time on lectures (the bottom of Bloom's Taxonomy). A flipped classroom inverts this, shifting focus to higher-order thinking like application and analysis during class. #EdTech #FlippedClassroom

Technology can dehumanize us. Even without faith, the message of Pope Leo urges us to make our world more human and connected to our true selves. Let's prioritize humanity in all we do. #Humanity #Technology

Medical schools are embracing 'productive struggle' and 'master vivas' to enhance learning. It's about bringing back Socratic dialogue and old-school methods to preserve student cognition in the AI age. #Education #SocraticMethod

Medical school faculties reacted with amusement when I told a student to read her materials, emphasizing the importance of 'friction' in learning. This concept deeply resonated with the audience and inspired one director to implement master vivas. #MedEd #AIinEducation #Learning

just finished lecturing to medical deans and doctors in Brazil. The data is clear: the "AI Glaze" is happening in medical school exactly like it's happening in high school. Hear why top medical schools are deploying Mastery Vivas to stop the cheating treadmill: jonbergmann.substack.com/p/w…

Saying goodbye is always hard, especially at the end of the school year. Reflecting on the impact teachers have and the lessons learned, even in those difficult farewell moments. #TeacherLife #EndOfYear

My presentation to Brazilian medical educators went over very well. The quality of the questions and interactions with both professors and medical students showed me that the future health of Brazilian people is in good hands.

Calculus class was 42 yrs ago, and the fear of not being able to do it is real. But being a learner means embracing the challenge. Going back to analog roots with a textbook and a notebook. Excited and terrified for the summer of calculus!

Invited to speak at Brazil's largest medical school about the Mastery Flip model and teaching in the age of AI. AI is evolving at an unprecedented rate, requiring constant updates to content, even within months. #AI #EdTech #MasteryFlip

The end of the school year brings a good kind of exhaustion and grief. Saying goodbye to students is hard, but it's a reflection of the profound difference teachers make. Embrace the feeling; it's a sign of caring deeply. #TeacherLife #EndOfSchoolYear

Feeling blessed to make a difference as a teacher. But some feel school sucking the life out of them, leaving them drained and spent. #TeacherLife #Education

Teaching is a glorious job, filled with both incredible highs and frustrating lows. The beauty lies in the distinct endings – a chance to reset and start fresh in August, unlike endless corporate projects. Saying goodbye is part of the process. #TeachingLife #TeacherAppreciation

As the school year wraps up, it's time for reflection. It's been a journey, and sometimes, the way school works requires us to look back. What lessons have you learned this year? #TeacherLife #EdChat

Failing a class at 16 might be the best wake-up call a student can get. It's a lesser evil than failing at 26 in a job, which can have far worse consequences. Education should teach life lessons, not just content. #Education #LifeLessons

One student chose to struggle through tough problems instead of using ChatGPT. He embraced the 'analog roots' and earned his first 100 on a big test. This 'productive struggle' is key to true learning. #ProductiveStruggle #Education #AIInEducation #ReachEveryStudent

Teachers, even when students are too young to write thank-you letters, you're making a profound difference. Embrace the impact you have, and it's okay to grieve the goodbyes. #TeacherLife #MakingADifference

Students are using AI like a forklift in the gym, pushing the 'easy button' for their minds. This degrades deep thinking. To preserve student minds, we need a new approach – the Mastery Flip Framework. #AIinEducation #EdTech #CriticalThinking
