A great conversation and @HoughamPaul is totally on point in this excerpt. Great to see the volume being turned-up on this important distinction as to where and how the voice of creative collaborations should sit in the curriculum @BobandRoberta

Great to see this quote from the article stand out—thanks for sharing @PenAHay
‘With AI able to support individualised learning, educators should act as curators of knowledge - cultivating creativity, critical thinking & other competencies to help foster deeper & more meaningful connections with each student.’ @SoulsbyAlex @theRSAorg

Huge thanks to @MikeThatcher10 and the editorial team at the @theRSAorg for their support with my latest article on possible futures for the education system #AI #EducationMatters #SirKenRobinson #creativeschools
AI could enable educators to shift focus from ‘delivering content to delivering competencies’. @SoulsbyAlex suggests that AI could help personalise learning, while teachers develop the human skills in students that cannot be replicated by machines. thersa.org/comment/2024/09/e…
Great points from @LearningWaldorf

It’s not just ‘outdated thinking’, it’s entirely ill-informed thinking.
"Financing the arts is an economic investment, not a subsidy. Further, placing the arts and culture sector “down the governmental pecking order” is a product of outdated thinking."

“Playful creativity is key to learning”
Congratulations to @young_vam on their win 🎉Museum of the Year! Forest agrees: Playful creativity is key to learning. Dr Helen Charman "This win is a clarion call for the vital role of creativity, culture & play in children's lives when many opportunities have been taken away."
