Summary
This Week: A superintendent in Massachusetts has put out a fascinating take on a revision to the ubiquitous Bloom’s Taxonomy , the helpful tool which has defined orders of thinking for decades in education. In the age of AI, he claims, the hierarchical nature of Bloom’s no longer reflects the more complex arc of thinking students will do in a world where humans think with AI. It’s an interesting take, and solidly sidesteps all of the most perilous ramifications of the rush to bring AI into the classroom. Plus, the confederates in charge of the federal government made it official this week. The US Dept of Education will no longer use “disparate impact” as criteria for holding state, districts, or schools accountable for compliance with the Title XI of the Civil RIghts Act of 1964, effectively gutting the landmark legislation. Now, short of having a smoking gun, or video evidence of officials spewing epithets, it will be virtually impossible for plaintiffs to seek federal relief from systemically racist practices in America’s schools. Manuel and Jeff discuss. All of the Above sends our condolences to the family, friends, and loved ones of noted Denver educator and co-host of the Too Dope Teachers and Mic podcast, Kevin Adams.
