Campana

The weekly AI newsletter for educators, by an educator.

I started Campana because I believe AI should happen with educators, not to them.

I taught through the 2010s 1:1 tech boom. Edtech may have expanded the 1:1 toolkit we had access to, but too often it asked us to carry one more system, one more login, one more workload. AI creates a rare window to rethink that tradeoff.

Educators must help shape this new definition of a meaningful education, and educators in every community should benefit from it.

"Give me a lever long enough and a fulcrum on which to place it, and I shall move the world."

With ever-increasing teacher shortages and funding insecurity, tools that save time and resources are more critical than ever for educators. When educators have time given back to them, they can focus on making learning meaningful. And what makes learning meaningful isn't content delivery. It's the process of mutual discovery. The "aha moment".

My mission is to ensure that the work of educators is augmented by the tools that are changing the world, because the parts of teaching that matter most can't be automated.

The people who understand students and pedagogy best are exactly the ones who should be shaping how it enters schools. That starts with being informed.
