A comeback, a creative partnership, and a viral raccoon all point to the same skill this week: helping students show up as themselves online. Here’s what happened and what it means for your classroom.
A chat that wasn’t as private as it looked, a doctor who doesn’t exist, and 98 students who decided to write the rules themselves. Students make better AI choices when they’ve had the chance to practice making them. That’s exactly what #WinAtSocial is built for.
This week’s stories show tech isn’t the villain or the hero. From sleep and attendance to teen purpose to young entrepreneurs, here’s what students’ screens really mean for their success, and how educators can help them strike a balance.
A.I. is showing up in classrooms faster than guidance can keep up, and the schools that come out ahead won’t be the ones with the strictest filters. They’ll be the ones that trust their educators and their students, keep the student-teacher relationship at the center, and give students real practice making thoughtful choices.
Adults are stepping up for students, from courtrooms to Congress to the movie theater, but when it comes to how students navigate tech and social media, change that lasts starts with the skills students build today.
