Listen to the interview with Cindy Lopez (transcript): Sponsored by Ellis Even the most well-prepared, experienced teacher can run into situations with students that leave them stumped. Students are coming to school with more needs than ever, and a lot of those needs aren’t strictly academic: anxiety, withdrawal, behavior issues, and learning differences that don’t always have quick or obvious solutions.

I want to share a story of struggle. Actually, two kinds of struggle. My father completed his doctorate at the University of Utah in the early 1970s. For his dissertation, he ran a statistical analysis on genealogical records to determine the impact of certain economic conditions on family size. He accomplished this on one of the most advanced computers of the time. His method? Literally punching out little rectangles in dozens of stiff paper cards, and feeding the stack into the computer. My fa

As a linguistics professor who is currently teaching in the middle of the generative AI boom, I have been thinking about how we can use AI not just as a tool, but as a collaborator in fostering greater student learning. I have discovered, somewhat accidentally, that the ways AI can be wrong can sometimes produce the most generative teaching and learning moments in the classroom. Like many instructors, I notice that even when AI gets it wrong, the mistake still sounds polished and authoritative.

Rising college costs and projected skills shortages in occupations that don’t require a bachelor’s degree are helping to drive enrollment in K–12 career and technical education programs — which increased 10% between the 2022-23 and 2023-24 school years, according to U.S. Department of Education data. Some districts have added CTE-dedicated facilities that provide a multitude of tech-centric educational amenities, ranging from flight simulators to robotic arms. In Alabama — where the Association

Editor’s Note: In all platform images, student and employer names have been altered to preserve privacy. While far better than nothing, work-based learning (WBL) has a credibility problem. A student completes an internship, clocks their hours, gets a line on their resume — and then what? Without rigorous, verifiable evidence of what skills were actually demonstrated on the job, work-based learning risks becoming just another box to check rather than a genuine launchpad into a career. It becom

As K–12 districts navigate a growing ecosystem of artificial intelligence tools and solutions, research suggests that the parent perspective can’t be overlooked — especially when it comes to building understanding and trust around how AI is used. A statewide poll of more than 1,300 Massachusetts parents released in January 2026 by EdTrust  revealed that parents are divided over AI’s role in the classroom. “Only a third feel positively, a third feel negatively and another third are unsure,” says
