Danny Liu shares a different way to think about AI and assessment on episode 584 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast. Quotes from the episode Our students are presented with this massive array of things they could choose from. They may not know the right things to choose or the best things to choose. And our role as educators is to kind of guide them in trying to find the most healthy options from the menu to choose from. -Danny Liu People want to give their students clarity. They want to give their students a bit of guidance on how to approach AI, what is going to be helpful for them for learning and not helpful for learning. -Danny Liu There is no way to really know if the rules that you're putting in place are going to be followed by students, and it doesn't mean that we need to detect them or surveil them more when they're doing their assignments. -Danny Liu We need to accept the reality that students could be using AI in ways that we don't want them to be using AI if they're not in front of us. -Danny Liu Not everyone lies. Most of our students want to do the right thing. They want to learn, but they have the temptation of AI there that is saying, I can do this work for you. Just click, just chat with me. -Danny Liu Our role as teachers is not to be cops, it's to teach and therefore to be in a position where we can trust you and help you make the right choice. -Danny Liu Resources Menus, not traffic lights: A different way to think about AI and assessments, by Danny Liu Talk is cheap: why structural assessment changes are needed for a time of GenAI, by Thomas Corbin,Phillip Dawson, &Danny Liu What to do about assessments if we can't out-design or out-run AI? by Danny Liu and Adam Bridgeman Course: Welcome to AI for Educators from the University of Sydney Whitepaper: Generative AI in Higher Education: Current Practices and Ways Forward, by Danny Y.T.

The Ruckus Report Quick take: Two beards, two red hats, one mission to blow up education's broken boundaries. Mitch Weathers reveals why saying "no" to district busywork and "yes" to what actually moves the needle isn't rebellion — it's leadership. Meet Your Fellow Ruckus Maker Mitch became a gifted teacher because he was a mediocre student. Mitch rarely felt comfortable in the classroom. In fact, it took him 7 years to graduate from college. Choosing to become a teacher, Mitch was fortunate enough to experience school as if it was happening all around him. He was unsure how to jump into his learning with confidence. There is a loneliness to experiencing your education as a passive object as opposed to an active subject. From the moment he entered the classroom, Mitch relied on his personal experiences as a learner. He recognized that what we teach—the content or curriculum—is secondary. We must first lay the foundation for learning before we can get to teaching. Mitch designed Organized Binder to empower teachers with a simple but research-backed strategy to teach students executive functioning skills while protecting the time needed for content instruction. The secret is found in establishing a predictable learning routine that serves to foster safer learning spaces. When students get practice with executive functions by virtue, we set them up for success. Learn more in his recent book Executive Functions for Every Classroom. Breaking Down the Old Rules

Send us a textCurriculum doesn't start in the classroom—it starts in the knowledge system: the people, institutions, and practices that produce and disseminate research. Dr. Cassidy Sugimoto, a Tom and Marie Patton Professor and School Chair from the School of Public Policy at Georgia Tech, explains how publishing and citation practices flow into standards and textbooks.Dr. Sugimoto highlights the systemic barriers faced by women and underrepresented minorities in academia and how these barriers affect what is taught in classrooms. The discussion also covers the need to redefine success in academia and the importance of inclusive curricula that reflect diverse perspectives. Finally, Dr. Sugimoto encourages educators to foster inquiry-based learning by shifting the focus from what students learn to the questions they ask.TakeawaysA knowledge system is the ecosystem in which knowledge is made.The lack of women and minorities in academia affects knowledge production.Representation in science influences girls' interest in STEM fields.Words used by educators can significantly impact students' self-perception.Success metrics in academia often exclude diverse perspectives.Diversity in research leads to more comprehensive knowledge.AI-generated materials can perpetuate stereotypes.Educators should recognize biases in the materials they use.Encouraging questions fosters a sense of inquiry in students.Education is influenced by broader societal knowledge systems.

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1119: Ford's factory revamp signals a new EV era, GM doubles down on autonomy without the taxi business, and AI takes over lesson plans as teachers lean into technology's potential.Show Notes with links:Ford will invest $2B to transform its Louisville, KY plant into a high-efficiency hub for an affordable, tech-packed electric pickup—aiming to rival low-cost Chinese EVs when it launches in 2027.The new process cuts parts count by 20% with large single-piece aluminum castings.Parallel assembly lines replace traditional conveyors, boosting efficiency by 15%.Lighter, shorter wiring harnesses save weight and simplify assembly.Ergonomic workstations improve build quality while reducing labor strain.“This is a bold and difficult undertaking to compete with the best in the world,” said Doug Field, Ford's Chief EV & Digital Systems Officer.From Cliff Banks on LinkedIn “One tiny fact -- that is big news, in our opinion -- that came out of Ford's second earnings call: Ford reduced the per-vehicle loss on its EVs from $44k to $22k last quarter. Keep that up, and its Model E division will be profitable much faster than expected.”After shutting down its Cruise robotaxi unit, GM is reigniting its autonomous ambitions—this time targeting personal-use driverless cars instead of fleet services.The new program starts with hands-free, eyes-free driving while a human is in the vehicle, progressing toward fully driverless capability.Sterling Anderson, former Tesla Autopilot chief is building a team by hiring new talent and inviting former Cruise employees back.GM is deploying lidar-equipped, human-driven test vehicles to log data and train simulation models that guide development.On GM's Q2 earnings call, CEO Mary Barra named autonomous tech, expanding the domestic supply chain, and battery innovation as “our clear priorities.”Three years after ChatGPT's public debut, many K-12 educators are moving from banning generative AI to using it as a tool for critical thinking, creativity, and tailored instruction.About 60% of teachers now use AI for lesson planning, grading, and parent communication, saving an average of 5.9 hours weekly.Early bans led students to hide AI use; now some districts are forming committees to guide ethical adoption.Teachers also use AI for individualized lessons, translation, accessibility, and real-world project design.Concerns remain about bias, privacy, and over-reliance, but advocates say benefits outweigh risks when guardrails are in place.“Educators are starting to realize that AI isn't going away—and that it's better to teach their students how to use it, rather than leave them to their own devices,” said a Drexel University professor.Join Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

Today, I am joined by Jenn “JJ” Judd. JJ is a mindset coach, content creator, and author with a degree in psychology. Known for her passion for plant-based living and helping people transform their health and mindset, JJ developed the G.L.A.D. framework (Goals, Learning, Action, Discipline) to inspire real, lasting change. She draws on both her personal journey and professional experience to guide people toward achieving their goals with clarity, confidence, joy, and ease.In 2019, at 42 years old, JJ lost 55 pounds, eliminated chronic back pain and seasonal allergies, and discovered the power of whole, raw vegan foods. What started as a personal weight loss journey turned into a mission to help others reclaim their well-being through sustainable habits, mindset shifts, and a return to nature's intended diet.She also discovered the ethical principles of veganism and became an advocate using her platform to speak up for animals and educate others on the deeper meaning behind the lifestyle—when they're ready to hear it.As the founder of Veganowledge and Amazing Plantz4merz, JJ educates and empowers people to simplify their approach to nutrition, break free from diet confusion, and create lasting health transformations. She shares her knowledge through books, coaching, and engaging online content, making plant-based living accessible and inspiring.Her latest book introduces readers to The G.L.A.D. Blueprint, a 4-step system designed to help people overcome obstacles, take control of their health, and achieve long-term success. The book includes real-life examples, an interactive quiz, and actionable steps that guide readers toward their best selves—physically, mentally, and emotionally.Her mission is to meet people where they are and gently invite them to go deeper—to recognize that all animals deserve to live, not just the ones we share our homes with. There is no difference between cats and dogs, cows and pigs, chickens and turkeys, when it comes to their desire to live and feel safe.She believes that true health is simple, and by working with the body instead of against it, we can unlock our fullest potential.To connect with JJ: YouTube: https://youtube.com/@veganowledgejj?si=TdCKcass3mwUCR1uInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/veganowledgejjTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@veganowledgejj?_t=ZT-8ulpZP715ha&_r=1Facebook Groups: Veganowledge: https://www.facebook.com/share/g/18uynzwxpM/?mibextid=wwXIfrRaw Veganowledge: https://www.facebook.com/share/g/1AAX2bpar1/?mibextid=wwXIfrTo connect with me:Follow me on Facebook and Instagram @didyoubringthehummusFor more info on my Public Speaking 101 program: ⁠https://www.didyoubringthehummus.com/publicspeakingforactivists⁠Contact me here or send me an email at info@didyoubringthehummus.comSign up for meditation sessions hereSign up for The Vegan Voyage, to sponsor the podcast, book meditations packages, or sign up for my Public Speaking program hereJoin my Podcast Fan Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/didyoubringthehummus/To be a guest on the podcast: https://www.didyoubringthehummus.com/beaguest©2025 Kimberly Winters - Did You Bring the Hummus LLCTheme Song ©2020 JP Winters ⁠@musicbyjpw⁠

OA1180 - We begin with some much-needed reminders that good things are still happening and the rule of law is still (mostly) holding on before turning to a recent Trump executive order on homelessness which reads like something out of a (not very good) Batman movie. Jenessa explains how this development fits into the history of long-term institutionalization of vulnerable and unhoused people in the US as we work through what this thing is actually trying to do.
