In this morning’s ’Irish Times’, Breda O’Brien on the naivety of Ireland’s approach to AI in assessment. One of the reasons @IrishSciTeach has now dissociated itself from proposed Leaving Cert AACs: ista.ie/ista-statement… Refs @humphreyjones @Marc__Watkins @aiteachingguru
The NCCA now say that it is okay to use AI in the AAC, worth 40% of your overall result, as long as you tell us which AI you used! So, as universities and colleges abandon projects and assignments due to credibility concerns, the NCCA see no problems at all.

Why did they wait to release these guidelines? Because they endorse the use of AI for the completion of AACs.
Important Update: NCCA Guidelines for Additional Assessment Components in SC Tranche One subjects are available now on curriculumonline.ie @NCCAie @Education_Ire
VERY VERY VERY VERY EXCITING NEWS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
A short blog for your morning coffee or commute. What if a student's home life was replicated in an exam hall? Here I imagine that scenario in relation to the new Leaving Cert projects (AACs) @NormaFoleyTD1 insists on despite opposition from experts. thevideotrolley.blogspot.com/2024/11/what-i…
This is a short blog but one that a lot of teachers are finding interesting.

According to Norma Foley: Crisis = Opportunity 1) Create believable crises. a) mobile phones b) Leaving Cert. 2) Take these opportunities to solve these crises. a) Waste €9 Million b) Push through damaging reform despite expert opposition. Crisis = Political Opportunism
These comments from Norma Foley at the INTO’s education debate are beginning to cause a stir in teacher circles. Is the abject shortage of teachers - where it’s almost impossible to get a substitute teacher - a ‘crisis’? The minister would prefer to label it an “opportunity”…
As a teacher, what's the first thing you think of when you hear the word "crisis"? I don't think "opportunity", I think something terrible has happened.

It’s amazing how Carl O’Brien’s article on today’s protests highlighting issues with Senior Cycle reforms fails to mention concerns around AI, student disadvantage, dumbing down of subjects and the lack of facilities (eg labs) in many schools. #edchatie irishtimes.com/ireland/educat…
Thousands of post primary students checking their course and career options at MTU Open Day..... #SucceedingTogether @MTU_ie
It's important to note that teachers did NOT come up with the changes to LC English. They were presented to the development group as non-negotaliable. A dual union meeting at the weekend was told about these proposals and how the Dept wasn't for budging.
Are the details on the English project published?
Jaysus @conorsmurf boy you were all over the media today! First @NTBreakfast then @RTERadio1 and now @echolivecork Good to hear the views of an experienced teacher on the ground voicing his valid concerns re NF’s Senior Cycle reforms & expressed so eruditely. This too👇🏼#edchatie
Powerful 👏👏👏👏

The Michael O'Leary stuff reminds me of a friend who told me, "I'd never want my kids to be a teacher. Teachers are pathetic. They're losers, really. If you're a teacher you have zero ambition." For some reason I still talk to that person.
Ours is tomorrow. Already getting a distinct JCT 2017 vibe from flicking through the booklet.
I’m really not looking forward to the upcoming whole school Oide day after the recent subject Cluster day. You’d swear Senior Cycle Science subjects weren’t getting new syllabi next September. It was horrendous, insulting & unprofessional
I plan on asking every politican that knocks on my door their thoughts on AACs at Senior Cycle. Below from Oide Whole School Planning Day booklet. Spells disaster for the future of education. ##edchatie
