What happens to student #privacy if ED is dismantled or disempowered? The 135+ state student data privacy laws don’t come close to covering the terrain addressed by FERPA and PPRA. @edweek.bsky.social @ariannaprothero.bsky.social @laurainegl.bsky.social www.edweek.org/technology/i...

“I’ve felt in the last couple of years the thing that was most prevalent and hardest to combat was not problems with skills—I’ve done that my whole life—but the apathy, the not wanting to try." www.edweek.org/state-of-tea... #EduSky #TheStateOfTeaching

Math anxiety can be crippling for students of all abilities and ages. Learn more in my latest for @edweek.bsky.social www.edweek.org/teaching-lea...

I talked to three veteran teachers who have incorporated AI into their everyday practice. Here's how they use the emerging technology: www.edweek.org/technology/i... #EduSky #EduSkyAI #EdTech

Two new @edweek.bsky.social stories on Trump administration efforts to freeze K-12 spending approved by Congress: Me on electric buses/composting/other halted projects: www.edweek.org/policy-polit... Sarah Sparks/Sarah Schwartz on eliminated teacher prep programs: www.edweek.org/teaching-lea...

Hi #EduSky! Are you using AI in your K-12 math instruction? I'd love to chat with you for a story I'm working on. DM or email me at [email protected]. Thank you! #EduSkyAI

Is it ethical for teachers to use AI to grade? Can AI really coach teachers? What does AI look like in the classroom? Tackle those questions and dive into how AI is reshaping teachers' jobs with this new special report: www.edweek.org/technology/h...

Excited to share my @edweek.bsky.social project, Why School Isn’t Working For So Many Boys... Some stats were shocking, like boys, esp. Black boys, getting suspended in preschool, & how many boys think school's a waste of time. But there were bright spots, too. www.edweek.org/leadership/w...

Missed Linda McMahon's confirmation hearing today? @beeschultz3.bsky.social has what you need to know about the nominee to oversee the U.S. Education Department (which President Trump wants to abolish):

New: Linda McMahon, potential U.S. Education Secretary, declined to say with certainty that Black history classes in K-12 schools are permitted under Trump's EOs. "I’m not quite certain, and I’d like to look into it further and get back to you on that," she said. www.edweek.org/policy-polit...

New: The Trump administration can't eliminate the U.S. Department of Education without an act of Congress, Trump's nominee for Secretary of Education said today. www.edweek.org/policy-polit...

AFT, the second largest teachers' union, joined a lawsuit against three federal agencies, alleging they improperly disclosed sensitive information to Elon Musk’s DOGE. The lawsuit adds to a growing list of litigation that contend that DOGE is defying federal laws. www.edweek.org/policy-polit...

For Education Week's annual Leaders to Learn From project, I got to write about Lazaro Lopez and Illinois' Township High School District 214's work to ensure students have opportunities to explore careers before they leave high school. #EduSky www.edweek.org/leaders/2025...

In more than two dozen states, lawmakers are considering legislation that would restrict students' use of cellphones in schools. The movement to address the cellphone challenge at the state level has grown rapidly since last year. www.edweek.org/technology/m... #edusky #schools #teahchers

"A lot of people are nervous, if this is the first move the new administration takes, and how it impacts public schools, what are the future moves going to look like?” www.edweek.org/policy-polit...

A dozen high schoolers are suing the state of Kentucky over K-12 education adequacy. They're pushing not just for more money, but for targeted instructional investments: civics, literacy, mental health, the arts. My story on who they are and what they hope to win: www.edweek.org/policy-polit...

Are you a current K-12 public school teacher (in the U.S.) frequently using generative AI in your work? I'd love to talk to you about how you use the technology and what lessons you've learned from it. DM or email me at [email protected] #EduSky #EduSkyAI #EdTech

Elementary school educators have noticed that their students don’t have the coping strategies to self-regulate—or manage their emotions and behaviors—that previous generations had. #EduSky #SEL www.edweek.org/leadership/e...

“It’s going to be emotional for our students,” said Denisha Jordan, a Los Angeles teacher. “I can only imagine that maybe they think: ‘Will it happen again?’ or ‘Am I safe?’” The fires closed at least 335 schools this week, affecting more than 211K students. www.edweek.org/leadership/a... #Edusky

As my colleague @evieblad.bsky.social writes: "While educators may carefully follow news in their own cities, stories from other communities can shed light on the policy, societal factors, and student trends that may affect their work in the future." www.edweek.org/leadership/l...

Among all the 2024 look-back stories in #education, this is among the grimmest. 39 school shootings this year met the criteria for Education Week’s school shooting database—the second-highest total for any year since the paper began tracking these incidents in 2018. www.edweek.org/leadership/s...

Educators are nostalgic for the "halcyon" days of Twitter. Could Bluesky replicate that? So far, educators are hopeful it will. #EduSky Read more: www.edweek.org/leadership/i...

#EduSky: How are you liking Bluesky? Are you using other apps like it (Threads, Mastodon, X) or is this The One for you? (I'm working on a story about how educators are using this app, so if you want to talk, DM or email me :) Thank you!)

This researcher is excited about the potential of generative artificial intelligence for teaching and learning. AI is “going to open a whole new front for education,” he said. #EduSky #EduSkyAI www.edweek.org/technology/a...

40% of school and district leaders say they're “considering,” “exploring,” or “piloting” AI technologies for multilingual learners, EdWeek Research Center found. I talked to a researcher about how educators can get started with AI for that population. #EduSky #EduSkyAI www.edweek.org/technology/w...

Elementary educators: What #SEL skill(s) are your students really struggling with??? Taking turns? Self-help skills? Focus? I'd love to hear what you're seeing in your classroom! #EduSky

The FCC's cybersecurity pilot program (which will give out $200 million over three years) received $3.7 billion in funding requests from schools and libraries. #EduSky #EdTech #cybersecurity #ERate www.edweek.org/technology/d...

hellooo #EduSky! i'm a reporter for Education Week, covering all things ed tech and student wellbeing. i'm new around here (and honestly a bit rusty with posting since that other app went downhill). if you're an educator, researcher, parent, student, etc., please say hi! :)
