This week I’ll be attending and presenting at the Serious Play Conference, and I’m really looking forward to this panel and interactive audience conversation around the intersection of AI with coding and game development. @phygitallabs.com

My head is still processing all of the poignant moments from last night's TEDx Seattle event focused on creativity and intent in a world of AI. From data deserts to defining craft, the conversations were positive, productive, and hopeful.

What a lovely day with Maryville City Schools! Almost 250 educators voluntarily arrived during the last days of their summer to hear the message of AI Optimism this morning. #AIOptimism #GBL #EduSky

I always think it’s funny when I am on the plane to a destination and get my check in notification for the trip home. I’ll be on the ground less than 24 hours in Knoxville but excited to share AI Optimism with Maryville County Schools tomorrow! Thanks to ChatGPT for the cute little cartoon.

I'm happy to share that many of my courses already available on LinkedIn Learning have CEUs available through various professional organizations! Check out the courses, then scroll down to "Professional Certifications and CEUs" to see what you can earn. View my courses here: bit.ly/BeckyLinkedI...

This step in Claude's thinking skills is honestly pretty great. #FactCheck

I saw a billboard and have been thinking about it ever since. What is "Authentic Intelligence?" I have opinions. Read more on my blog or Substack: open.substack.com/pub/beckykee...

This week I had the honor of leading STEM educators from around the country through #AIOptimism as they returned to their alma mater at South Dakota State University for the annual REMAST program conference. #EduSky

Today is the one-year anniversary of the release of #AIOptimism, so I thought I would ask AI to make me a recap graphic to recognize the reach in just the past year. I am consistently amazed by the positive impact that AI Optimism continues to have around the world. Thank you for your support! 🧡

Honestly I would attend this version of #Edtechkaraoke without hesitation at #ISTE2026.

I'm thrilled to be heading to South Dakota State University on Monday to present #AIOptimism as the conference keynote! Attended by K12 STEM educators from around the state and faculty from SDSU, this annual event is meant to inspire and engage. Honored that I was invited to speak! #AIEdu #EduSky

In an unusual chain of events, my first meal of the day is occurring at 5:10 PM from 30k feet. Thank you @alaskaair!

What an amazing day with Atlanta Public Schools! It was an honor to set the tone for the day as keynote at the first ever APS AI Summit. Thank you Natasha and Krynica for trusting me with the message, and to #MicrosoftEdu for helping make their event a reality. #EduSky

It was my pleasure to present to the educators of the National Business Educators Association last week! I tailored parts of #AIOptimism specifically for business education and got amazing feedback from the participants. It's always a good day to share AI Optimism. #NBEA #AIEdu

One more year before my renewal - and I just found out that my old ISTE Certified Educator credential has been converted to the new ISTE+ASCD Edtech Leader certification! #ISTECert

What if letting students create first (especially with AI) isn't a problem to fix, but a more honest reflection of how thinking actually works? New post on my Substack! I'm exploring fluid learning, motivation, and why it's time to unlock the pyramid. open.substack.com/pub/beckykee... #AI #EduSky

This morning during the AIDE Symposium fireside chat, Ruben Puentadura dropped an awesome quote. When talking about using AI to redesign lessons for students, he noted, "Sure, you could create something brand new that doesn't include any student agency. But the question is - why?" #EduSky

Just used this new button in #Canva for the first time and it just feels so good. I have no idea why this took so long. Hooray!

When I wrote #AIOptimism, I knew it was important not to focus on current tools or technologies since they change so quickly. While I reference suggested options for education, the focus is on strategies - and there are many tools that work.

Several months before #AIOptimism was published, I started road testing the framework with educators across the country. My book isn’t full of idealistic theory - it’s filled with actual possibilities!

All my thoughts for educators on the big news from Canva Create just went live! Read on my Substack: open.substack.com/pub/beckykee...

Excited to be at #CanvaCreate today in Los Angeles! Phygital Labs is a Canva Education Partner AND a Canva Agency Partner, supporting education PreK-HED. Follow my stories for updates… or see you there! #Canva #CanvaEdu #PhygitalLearning

I am honored to be bringing the message of #AIOptimism to South Dakota, Georgia, North Carolina, Florida, and Tennessee this summer. I still have room to add YOU to my list. Let's spread the movement and see what we can do to transform teaching and learning together.
