Student-Led Processes
Intro. It’s often two minutes before the bell, and your students are doing that thing where you, their teacher, are still making one last proclamation in the name of essential last-minute learning, and you hear the room popcorn with backpacks going “ZIP, ZIPPPP, ZIPPPPPPPP.” The kids all know…

Transparency in the Process
I’m closing out the school year by slowing down to actually look back and make sense of what happened. It’s a metacognitive act that I, for one, could certainly do more of. In this article, I’m inviting a few guests from the podcast episode “How Did It Actually Go?” (link below) to guest-write an...

"Gates" to Pause Processes
Intro I’m closing out the school year by slowing down to actually look back and make sense of what happened. It’s a metacognitive act that I, for one, could certainly do more of. Over the next few weeks, I’m inviting a few guests from the podcast episode “How Did It Actually Go?” to guest-write…

Six Pitfalls That Break AI-Enhanced Processes
TL;DR II’m back after a break for Chinese New Year! Process-based teaching is meant to protect thinking. With AI in the classroom, it can accidentally protect the appearance of thinking instead. But before any process can hold, the essential conditions for learning have to be in place. This…

How to Design AI-Enhanced Processes
Inviting AI into your classroom and simply saying, “Use it responsibly,” is like inviting a wacky stranger to your dinner party and saying, “Just don’t make it weird.” Nobody knows what that means. You turn your back for five minutes to grab the wine, and you come back to find the stranger...
