Ask a Tech Teacher

I–like many teachers–do a lot of prep for my teaching, often requiring digital desktop publishing platforms. Between newsletters for parents, announcements on social media, communications for students and parents, and more, it became a challenge to demonstrate the excitement and engagement of learning through what could be boring tools. Then I got an email from the folks at Creative Fabrica.

COVID-19 was edtech’s big moment, and while digital tools kept learning going for many families and schools, they also faltered. A great deal of edtech purchases went unused , equity gaps widened , and teachers and students were burned out. Combined with sobering reports on the persistent lack of strong evidence for edtech , it’s no wonder why the notion of using technology to “fix broken schools” has fallen out of most startup pitch decks and education TED Talks.

CC-BY, provided by the author In today’s fast-paced world, where cities glow brightly even during the night, the concept of a dark sky filled with twinkling stars seems like a distant memory. Light pollution, the excessive and misdirected artificial lighting that obscures our view of the stars, has become a global concern. However, by educating and inspiring the younger generation, we can foster a love for dark skies and empower children to take action against light pollution.

The instructor’s PPT slides are brilliant. You’ve splurged on the expensive interactive courseware. Student engagement is stellar. So… why are half of your students still forgetting everything they learned in just a matter of weeks? It's likely a matter of cognitive science! With so much material to "teach" these days, we often forget to incorporate key proven principles into our curricula — namely active recall, metacognition, spaced repetition, and interleaving practice.

As industries increasingly rely on technology-driven solutions, many careers in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) fields are experiencing a high rate of growth. STEM careers are at the forefront of modern innovation, and new jobs within these disciplines are emerging at rates exponentially higher than the U.S. average. STEM careers as a whole are projected to grow more than 10 percent over the next 10 years , more than three times faster than the projected growth for all o

The multivitamin industry is quickly growing and could be worth 300 billion dollars by the end of the year. But are they really the magic cure? The science says we are not getting healthier. So why do so many people take different kinds of vitamins and supplements? The multivitamin industry is massive. But that also makes it highly unregulated, and with no prescription or supervision, you can get these pills everywhere: on Instagram, on Amazon, and even in your neighborhood grocery stores.

Sleep stands as an integral aspect of human survival. In the absence of sleep, the human brain is incapable of performing efficiently. Without rest, individuals are also susceptible to illness and weight gain. However, addressing the necessity of sleep poses a significant challenge: how do individuals manage sleep disorders? One of the various sleep disorders is insomnia.
