Do Teachers Dream of GenAI Widening Educational (In)equality? Envisioning the Future of K-12 GenAI Education from Global Teachers' Perspectives
Generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) is rapidly entering K-12 classrooms worldwide, initiating urgent debates about its potential to either reduce or exacerbate educational inequalities. Drawing on interviews with 30 K-12 teachers across the United States, South Africa, and Taiwan, this study examines how teachers navigate this GenAI tension around educational equalities. We found teachers actively framed GenAI education as an equality-oriented practice: they used it to alleviate pre-exis…

Using Protected Identity to Suppress History
Legislation on protected identities is supposed to foster good intercommunal relations. When it’s used to protect Zionism, it means shielding a 19th-century nationalist ideology from criticism as if it were an innate characteristic of all Jews.

In the field of public education, the dogma of "separate but free" has no place;
⭐️separate is inherently unfree.
As this Article uniquely clarifies, segregation deprives schoolchildren of freedom to become equal citizens and freedom to learn in democratic, integrated, and transformative settings.

The U.S. Department of Education has pulled funding for programs in eight states
aimed at supporting students who have both hearing and vision loss,
a move that could affect some of the country’s most vulnerable students.
The programs are considered vital in those states but represent only a little over $1 million a year in federal money.
Nonetheless, they got caught in the Trump administration’s attacks on diversity, equity and inclusion,
with an Education Dep…

Benefits and Limitations of Using GenAI for Political Education and Municipal Elections
Generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) presents both challenges and opportunities across all areas of education. Facing the municipal elections in North Rhine-Westphalia, the Young AI Leaders in Dortmund asked themselves: Could GenAI be used to make political programs more accessible, in order to facilitate political education? To explore respective potentials and limitations, we therefore performed an experimental study that combines different GenAI approaches. Language models were used to…
