The report on #AILiteracies I wrote with @laurahilliger.com for BBC R&D has now been released! 🙌
It was delayed due to the charter renewal process, so hopefully it still stands up to scrutiny...

I write about learning, technology, systems, and open recognition, and share that work freely through Open Thinkering and related projects.

Wondering how someone can use AI as part of their writing/publishing workflow without just copy/pasting?
I've written up my current process with screenshots, chat transcript, and original LLM draft:

This is part 2 of my series on mental models in times of polycrisis.
It looks at extended minds and tools - and how they change the way we think and act together.

AI writes the code. You’re still responsible. New post on what that means for non‑developers building software:

How come books are 'luxury items' now?
Using mcluhan's tetrad to think through media obsolescence, what happens when secondary orality overheats, and why "digital dementia" might be the reversal we should've seen coming.

#MediaTheory #DigitalLiteracies
Still new to Bluesky—and to using social media as a space for academic reflection. Posting, replying, and connecting here has turned theory into dialogue. It’s been a learning curve, but also a reminder that digital literacies grow through participation.

Exactly—Knobel & Lankshear (2014) highlight that new literacies, like research, are social and collaborative. Knowledge grows through shared inquiry, dialogue, and participation—never in isolation.

Leander & Burriss (2020) explore what it means to teach with machines. As AI and algorithms shape how knowledge is formed, how can educators ensure technology amplifies—not replaces—human connection and critical thought?
#edu800fall25 #Leander #AIinEducation #DigitalLiteracies
Mills (2010) reminds us that literacy is multimodal—visual, spatial, and interactive. As AI reshapes how students create and communicate, how can we help them move from consuming media to designing meaning?
#edu800fall25 #Mills #DigitalLiteracies #AIinEducation
If, as Leander & Burriss (2020) suggest, we now read and become 1 with machines, what does that mean for critical literacy? How do educators teach students to question, co-create, and think critically in a world shaped by AI/algorithms?

If “new literacies” are defined more by social practices than by digital tools, how should educators rethink assessment? Are we measuring skills—or participation, collaboration, and meaning-making? (Knobel & Lankshear, 2014)

Knobel & Lankshear (2014) remind us that “new literacies” aren’t just about tools—they’re about social practices, collaboration, and participation. In EDU800, I’m exploring how this mindset reshapes how we design and experience learning online.
#EDU800fall25 #DigitalLiteracies #OnlineLearning
Literacy keeps evolving—each new web generation expands what it means to read, write, and connect. In EDU800, I’m reflecting on how educators must help students adapt and thrive in a world of constant digital change (Leu & Forzani, 2012).
#EDU800 #DigitalLiteracies #EdTech #OnlineLearning
The “digital turn” redefines literacy as multimodal, networked, and social. In EDU800, I’m exploring how platforms like Engageli and Canvas become spaces of meaning-making where students connect and create (Mills, 2010).

Stoked to be exploring this #BlueSky world! It feels like Twitter 2007 all over again :). Would love to connect with educators passionate about #SchoolLibraries, #TeacherLibrarianship, #DigitalLiteracies, #InformationLiteracy and more!
