Mary Lou Fulton Teachers College faculty, staff and doctoral students are invited to join us for the MLFTC GenAI Series!
There is clearly a great deal of interest in and curiosity about Generative AI and what role it can play in our professional lives. The AI in Education Learning Future Collaborative has put together a series of informal, drop-in Zoom meetings to help you learn more about these new technologies and how we may use them.
Educators aim every day to help learners of all ages understand complex concepts. Increasingly, they have turned to “active learning” approaches, even though it is not always clear to educators what that precisely means. For example, what exactly constitutes active learning activities, why are some activities less effective than others — and how should active learning activities be designed or selected from the many choices available online?
Reading comprehension is a critical skill developed in elementary school that provides a foundation for future student learning. Educators have identified a need to improve these skills in K–2 students, particularly for students who are English language learners and economically disadvantaged. One factor that can inhibit English language acquisition proficiency is low student engagement. Behavioral and emotional engagement, in particular, have been identified as significant predictors of reading performance.
Schools are critical settings for developing the next generation of healthy adults engaged in society. However, the COVID-19 pandemic has had a major impact on student learning as well as students’ social and emotional health. Recess is the main school setting for children to move and socialize, and these are critical behaviors that can support healthy growth and development, as well as academic success.
Through its spines and pleats, the saguaro has developed the ability to self-cool — a process that can teach humans about adaptability in extreme environments. These biomimicry-inspired lessons also offer educators a way to encourage students to understand their role in preparing for a more sustainable future.
