Sign up for The 74 Newsletter State officials, activists and educators have largely shaped public dialogue about Texas’ social studies overhaul, but young people added their voices to the conversation Tuesday, calling for instruction that includes diverse perspectives and challenges them to think critically. The majority-Republican education board began last year to redesign Texas’ social studies standards, which outline what students need to learn by the time they graduate. The board plans to finalize the standards this summer, with classroom implementation expected in 2030. Up to this point, a majority of…

Scaling Student Engagement And Operations Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning (ML), and Deep Learning are disrupting and impacting every sector. Higher education is no exception. Every university department can use these technologies to improve efficiency and boost overall student success. There are three major areas where AI can be applied in higher education: Administration. Teaching. Learning. Figure 1. AI Strategic Impact Areas in Higher Education Applying AI first in administrative areas can help reap early benefits.

How LMS Platforms Scale Learning For Teams Work today doesn’t happen in one place anymore. Teams are spread across cities, countries, and time zones. Sales teams work in the field, support teams work remotely, and new hires join from different locations. While this gives organizations flexibility and reach, it also makes learning and development more complex. How do you train everyone consistently? How do you ensure people are actually learning? And most importantly, how do you scale learning without losing control? This is where a Learning Management System (LMS) becomes essential to help you manage, track, and improve learning across…

Sign up for The 74 Newsletter By the time children reach elementary school, teachers can usually predict which students will volunteer answers, speak easily in front of the class and move comfortably through discussion — and which will hesitate, look down or remain silent even when they understand.

NotebookLM only uses the sources you upload. This means you stay in control of what students are learning and how they interact with the material. You can upload articles, lesson notes, or primary sources, and everything students do stays connected to those resources.This matters because as teachers, we intentionally create learning environments where sources are thoughtful, purposeful, and aligned to our goals. NotebookLM supports that by allowing you to work only with materials you have already selected and vetted. Instead of spending time addressing questionable information or redirecting conversations, you can stay focused on the learning itself.

The Next Evolution Of Workplace Learning For years, organizations have relied on platforms to manage learning. Learning Management Systems (LMSs), Learning Experience Platforms (LXPs), and various training tools have formed the foundation of corporate learning strategies. These platforms brought structure, scalability, and control to learning initiatives, making it possible to deliver training across large and distributed workforces.

Instead, they work across multiple tools, collaborate in real time, and are expected to adapt continuously to new technologies and processes. In…
