Resources

Here are a few of the resources I mentioned during the livestream.

• I highly recommend you get yourself a copy of

  John Warner
  ’s latest book, More Than Words: How to Think About Writing in the Age of AI. Even if you don’t interact much with AI and teaching, Warner’s discussion of how AI removes learning friction is good advice for everyone, not just K-12 students.

• Another great thinker and writer on how generative AI is impacting education is

  Marc Watkins
  . His Substack,
  Rhetorica
  is filled with great essays on AI’s effect on our collective ability to read, write, think, and communicate.

• I mentioned how I use Wonder Day/Week projects to keep my students motivated and engaged during standardized testing. I plan to write a more detailed post in the spring, but in the meantime, check out his free classroom resources.

• I discussed how much I value a strong work ethic in my students. I want them to understand that their self-worth is not tied up in their performance. Working hard is important for not only school success, but success in life. This article has some great tips on ways you can teach youth how to have a strong work ethic.
