What are we paying attention to? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Two weekends ago, I attended a funeral service for my great uncle.It was the morning after my first week of school, so I was admittedly in a bit of a haze when I stepped into the sanctuary for the service. Still, it took only minutes to settle into a reflective space in thinking about the family gatherings that had taken place at my late Uncle Lee’s house growing up—now all those same first and second cousins a generation older, with kids of their own in tow.

Read excerpt
Week 1 is officially in the books.Many, many more to go in the 2026-27 school year—especially given that the first week was (thankfully) only three days of class for me, allowing my voice to recover (I hope) to now make it through a five-day second week of school.But reflecting on those first three days of the year, I have to admit: they were three very good days in the classroom.

To answer that question, Jeffrey Austin, a literacy consultant and former award-winning teacher, joins today’s episode to reflect on what has taken place in recent ye
Reading That MIT Report on AI as a High School Teacher (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Confession: I do not teach at MIT.Very few of us do, of course. I’m a teacher at a quite-large public high school in Oregon (just under 2000 students) and, beyond time zone differences, MIT feels very far away. I note this because I do struggle at times when the decisions of elite, quite-selective schools drive discourse in education—from Alpha School’s personalized AI tutoring program to <a href="https://www.harvardmagazine.com/university-news/harvard-faculty-approve-a-cap-on-a-gra
