Apr. 6 | Feed His Sheep (AP Class) | Minister Malcolm Durell, Teacher John 21:17

Welcome to today's episode, where I will bridge the gap between AI in my classroom and your ears! If you've been following my blog, you know I want to bring practical, innovative teaching strategies to life. But today, I'm doing things a bit differently on the show for an extended episode with me, your host, Vicki Davis. Sponsor: Modern Classrooms Project will help you bring engaging, exciting teaching to your classroom with their free online course and community. Go to coolcatteacher.com/modern right now to sign up for the Modern Classrooms essential course for free where you will learn about the strategies, research, and resources that can drive student-centered, self-directed learning in your classroom. They can show you have to use technology to unlock deeper student relationships with your students. So many people ask me how to respond to Artificial Intelligence and my response is always, that we need to shift our pedagogical practices into the classroom to the time-tested research-based best practices. You get that with Modern Classrooms, so go to coolcatteacher.com/modern today and sign up. You'll be glad you did. I'll guide you through how I use AI in my classes. I teach eighth grade through an AP Class with seniors, and we're finding amazing ways to use AI, from advising us on a trip project to providing feedback on logos and user interfaces for our app-building project to testing AI tutors. It's all real and all right now. There is no theory here, just lots of learning and some bumps along the way. (Recently, a custom GPT I created started calling me Melissa, sigh. Someone explain that to me!) And for a bit of fun, meet CAT GPT, my very own Content AI Taskhelper - a personal assistant I've created with a blend of my own educational beliefs and research-backed best practices. I have it interview me on the way to school (and sometimes back), and it helps me create content for you. I always link to it, so I'll share how I do that too. And, since I've given two weeks off to my son, John, so he can ace his finals, I understand the frustration with AI-generated transcripts (thanks, southern accent!), so while there's o polished transcript available just yet, you can check out the auto-captions on the Cool Cat Teacher YouTube channel for a pretty good transcript. And if you need a more accurate version, don't hesitate to reach out via email -- I'm committed to making my content accessible to all. This episode is more than just a podcast; it's a glimpse into the future of education with AI. So whether you're a seasoned educator or just AI-curious, tune in, laugh along, and prepare to form your own opinions about AI. Let's continue this AI adventure together as we work to improve our classrooms and educate a successful generation for tomorrow. This extended episode sponsored by Modern Classrooms will help me share about the pedagogical changes that can happen in schools that want to advance learning in an AGE of AI.

This week, Frank and Alex discuss bizarre questions raised about the Damar Hamlin incident, taking time to ponder holy sacraments in today's world, Live Nation and Ticketmaster having to answer to Congress, Florida banning an AP African American studies class, and the arrest of two despicable child abusers.

Welcome to a brand new season of Sh*t Your Teenagers Won't Tell You! We've been thinking about how we can make the SYTWTY Podcast more relevant and valuable to parents, which is why, in season two, we're taking a look at our FAQs. Today, we attempt to answer an age-old question that we commonly receive from parents and students alike: is it better to get an A in a ‘regular' class or a B in an AP/Honors class? The TL;DR answer may seem obvious (objectively, AP classes are better), but there are a number of factors that you need to evaluate when it comes to course selection, the college admissions process, and how it can impact a student's self-worth. Tune in today as we give this FAQ the nuanced consideration it deserves!   Key Points From This Episode:   [0:01:35] An introduction to today's FAQ: Is it better to get a B in AP or an A in regular?

(07:27) Have compelling answers for these three questions: What are we building? (have a compelling vision) Why is it important? (have a compelling mission) What’s my role? (a set of core values) Mindsteps, Inc - core values: (11:02) 1 - Drama-free work environment 2 - Do the right thing, even when it hurts 3 - Figure it out Core values as decision filters Vision / Mission / Core Values (13:41) They don’t mean anything if they don’t govern the work. They have to be non-negotiables Only 3, no more than 4, they should be ranked Everybody has to sign off on them Hire based on those things - shape interview questions that tease out people’s core values Master schedule has to support your core values (BONUS: See this article from our very own Andrea Smith, Lyons Middle / Senior Principal, on how your master schedule reflects your climate and culture!)
