<p>I'm teaching my 5th graders how to use drills and drivers right now. We're going to build a greenhouse and grow some vegetables. I feel like the first proto-human who taught a child how to make a stone axe. This is better than AI. All the 'edtech thought leaders' telling me I need to integrate AI into my curriculum can shrivel up and blow away on the cold cyber wind of 'progress'. I will keep teaching kids to do real stuff and make the world a better place. <a href="/tags/edu/" rel="tag">#edu</a> <a href="/tags/teacher/" rel="tag">#teacher</a> <a href="/tags/maker/" rel="tag">#maker</a> <a href="/tags/making/" rel="tag">#making</a> <a href="/tags/fablab/" rel="tag">#fablab</a></p>
