    Also - many many institutions have declared that what’s happening is a genocide, and unfortunately that hasn’t changed anything. (Perhaps naive of me to believe that it would chang…

    I’m never the one to defend AI, but what do you mean? Is it the “AI overview” that pops up on Google? Other than that, I would say Gemini is definitely less in your face than ChatG…

    During the school year, teachers put in significantly more than the 8 hours they're physically at school. Marking, course planning, etc take up quite a bit of time that teachers mu…

    Are German schools behind? In North America, learning algebra means we learn to solve for x/y : solving quadratic equations is pretty much the ceiling for "algebra" and even that i…
