The Blue Book Backlash: Why "Going Analog" is a Failure of Imagination

As universities panic over AI and revert to handwritten "blue book" exams, a new crisis is emerging. This retreat to analog isn't just backward—it’s discriminatory. We explore the data on how banning digital tools hurts neurodiverse students and why process verification is the only equitable solution.

Should Schools Teach AI or Let Students Learn It Themselves?

AI is transforming education much like cell phones once did—but with deeper implications. While phones distracted from learning, AI reshapes it by generating ideas and adapting to students’ needs. Educators debate its risks and rewards: overreliance may weaken critical thinking, yet guided use can enhance skills and productivity. As workplaces embrace AI, schools must decide whether to ban, regulate, or integrate it—helping students turn AI from a shortcut into a tool for meaningful learning and long-term success.

Why Student Collaboration Matters More than Ever in the Age of AI

As AI becomes more available to students, it’s changing how they learn — and how they connect with each other. Without balance, heavy reliance on AI could isolate students and weaken the collaboration skills they’ll need in tomorrow’s workplaces. Here’s why group work is more important than ever, and how schools can make it thrive in the AI era.

The Cost of Efficiency: Why Students Need Challenge

True learning thrives in the slow, sometimes challenging process of struggle and discovery. When students rely on AI to shortcut that journey, education can begin to prioritize speed over depth, and answers over understanding.
