Can you spot the errors in @mberry ‘s code? (The space before print is driving me 🫠) but he’s absolutely right, AI is a better coding buddy that one teacher running around a room. Why not try our ultimate coding tutor? beta.mindjoy.com/tutors/Z2lk… #cndconference2024

“The problem with flipped learning is they never watch the video” - absolutely right @mberry & AI is the way to fix that problem! Mindjoy has been described as “flipped learning on steroids” btw 🥳 there’s nothing better than students being quizzed by AI tutors #cndconference2024

My spicy take for the week is that Prompt Engineering should really just be called 'Explaining' 🌶️ blog.mindjoy.com/prompt-engi… #caschat #aieducation

We’ve seen some success with non specialist cover teachers and our AI tutors, it’s can’t replace a specialist but it can enhance the effectiveness of the non specialist. If you’re having recruitment difficulties in a STEM subject and want to give @TeamMindjoy a go, reach out!
Another year of poor ITT recruitment is on the cards, with 11 out of 17 subjects below target, and geography and primary also likely to be below. Bursaries and international recruitment propping some subjects up a little, but generally weak like last year /1

This was my favourite blog post to write, if you worry about what AI does to integrity of assessment then give it a read!
With AI's rise, fears over academic integrity loom. Yet, history hints: past 'shortcuts' (think Encarta) actually sharpened our minds.🧠 Could AI be more than just modern mischief but a spark for unmatched creativity & learning? 🤔💡blog.mindjoy.com/the-history…

This week's video for @craigndave1 will dispel a few myths about private browsing mode, like the fact that IT'S NOT ACTUALLY PRIVATE. Take a look, share it with your students and prompt some great discussion points. youtube.com/watch?v=fKnlZDwN… #cashchat

Really great to read your honest critique Elaine - sounds like you got a lot out of it, glad you enjoyed it! It’s a shame I can’t go back and iterate on it as I’d love to take the learnings and expand and improve it.
