Exciting news from AI for Education and Student Achievement Partners! They’ve released a "Guide to Integrating Generative AI for Deeper Literacy Learning"—a practical resource for educators exploring how generative AI can enhance literacy instruction. The guide focuses on responsible integration, balancing productive struggle, and supporting teacher expertise while aligning with students’ developmental readiness. A great starting point for anyone curious about the intersection of AI and high-quality instruction! #ailiteracy #GenAI #edtech #computing #educators #icteducation #k12education
We are excited to announce the release of our "Guide to Integrating Generative AI for Deeper Literacy Learning" - a collaboration between AI for Education and Student Achievement Partners. We co-developed the guide with SAP, experts in high quality instruction, with an understanding that both the technology and its educational applications are at it's earliest stages. We also know that many teachers, leaders, and students are concerned about the impact the tools will have on learning. We want this guide to act as a jumping off point for educators that are trying to determine if GenAI can positively intersect with high quality instruction in the literacy classroom. The Key Principles of the Guide: • GenAI tools should support, not circumvent, productive struggle for students • AI literacy should come before the Integration of GenAI tools • GenAI should augment educators’ pedagogical expertise, content knowledge, and knowledge of students • Integration when appropriate should enhance, not replace, proven instructional practices • Usage should align with students’ developmental readiness and literacy goals Highlights: • A framework for distinguishing productive vs. counterproductive struggle in literacy classrooms • Practical strategies for using AI to enhance student engagement without replacing critical thinking for students • Best practices for enhancing cognitive lift and what strategies to avoid that offload cognitive lift • Detailed GenAI use cases across foundational skills, knowledge building, and writing instruction • Elementary-specific guidance emphasizing teacher-led AI implementation and modeling • Comprehensive worked examples with Chatbot transcripts that illustrate these practices This is just the beginning, which is why we're actively gathering educator feedback to refine and expand these resources through a survey in the guide. Thank you so much to Carey Swanson and Jasmine Costello, PMP from SAP for being such wonderful partners in this work! You can access the full guide or watch the accompanying webinar in the link in the comments! #ailiteracy #literacy #GenAI #K12

🌐 Reflecting on World Coding Day 🌐 Just a few days ago, we celebrated the first-ever #WorldCodingDay – a day marked by UNESCO, dedicated to highlighting the power of coding and its impact on our world. This occasion reminds us of the importance of integrating coding skills into education to prepare students for the future. At Egypt ICT Educators, we’re passionate about empowering teachers and students with essential digital skills, and coding is a key part of that mission. Whether it’s through creative problem-solving, logical thinking, or innovation, coding teaches students how to think critically and approach challenges with a solution-oriented mindset. Here are a few ways ICT educators can keep the spirit of coding alive in the classroom year-round: - Introduce Mini Coding Challenges 💡 Start each week with a quick coding challenge! Platforms like Code.org or Scratch offer beginner-friendly tasks that build students’ confidence and problem-solving skills. - Organize Coding Clubs 🤖 Establish a coding club where students can dive deeper into projects of their choice. Let them explore game development, web design, or even basic robotics – the possibilities are endless! - Host a “Coding Day” Event 🎉 Dedicate one day a term to coding activities for all students. Invite guest speakers, hold workshops, or have students present their coding projects. - Incorporate Real-World Projects 🌎 Encourage students to create coding projects that address real-world issues, such as climate change or community needs. This helps students connect coding with making a positive impact. - Celebrate Milestones 🎓 Recognize student progress with certificates, badges, or coding showcases. This keeps students motivated and proud of their achievements. Let’s continue to build on the momentum of #WorldCodingDay and make coding accessible, engaging, and fun for students year-round! 💻 How are you keeping the spirit of coding alive in your classroom or community?

🖥️ Enhance Your Classroom with Touch Typing! 🖥️ As ICT educators, we know the importance of equipping our students with essential digital skills. Touch typing is a fundamental skill that can enhance students productivity, focus, and overall learning experience. Here’s why incorporating touch typing into your curriculum is a game-changer and how you can get started: ❓ Why touch typing matters ❓ - Boosts productivity by allowing you to type faster and more efficiently. - Enhances focus because without looking at the keyboard, you focus more on the content rather than the keys you’re pressing. - Reduces errors through continuous practice resulting in less typos and mistakes. - Improves digital literacy because it is a fundamental digital skill that supports overall computer usage. - Supports learning because students can improve their note-taking, essay writing, and research skills. - Promotes ergonomics as it encourages better posture and hand positioning, reducing the risk of stress injuries on your wrists, hands, and overall body. 🌟 Here are some tools and resources to help you get started 🌟 https://www.typing.com/ https://lnkd.in/d2nQ3mF https://www.keybr.com/ https://www.ratatype.com/ https://lnkd.in/eSaiKxvg 👨🏫 Tips for teaching touch typing 👨🏫 - Include regular practice in your lessons. - Encourage students to prioritize accuracy over speed at first. As they become more comfortable, their speed will naturally increase. - Teach students proper finger placement and be consistent in applying it. - Remind students to keep their hands and wrists relaxed to avoid strain. 🎓 Join the movement 🎓 Have you incorporated touch typing in your classroom?

I’m excited to introduce myself as the founder of Egypt ICT Educators - EIE. My name is Samaa Awad, and I have over 18 years of diverse experience in the fields of software engineering and ICT education. I began my career at VIAS Egypt - Valeo Interbranch Automotive Software, where I worked for 12 years developing and validating software for various automotive applications. In parallel, I spent 7 years as a Teaching Assistant at the Faculty of Computer and Information Sciences. Transitioning fully into education, I took on roles as an ICT teacher and then Head of ICT & Computing where I was responsible for setting up departments and developing curricula that aligned with the schools' standards, vision, and mission. With Egypt ICT Educators, I aim to leverage my experience to empower teachers, enhance educational practices, and elevate the profile of ICT & Computing departments in schools. I am passionate about communication, collaboration, and creating a healthy learning environment. I aim to support and mentor educators, encouraging them to become better teachers and fostering a community of innovative professionals. I am hoping for the best as I embark on this new journey and look forward to the exciting possibilities ahead.
