@rjblaskiewicz Most days, I spend an hour or two writing about something I'm trying to learn, because I find it the best way to make the long-term changes in my brain that constitute learning. IDK if your students know how unimportant grades are. I have never been asked for grades; at most for the degree certificate. I have never asked people I hired for grades. Maybe they will be asked for their first job when they don't have employment history. Or maybe to continue in academia. But having those skills matter. Most jobs have a probationary period and they won't keep the job if they don't have the skills. It seems AI™ usage is going to force major changes in our education systems. I hope we apply some critical thinking to the purposes of education from the points of view first of students, then of wider society, then of employers. @blogdiva
