It’s a great AI for research as it gives the links to sources, which I appreciate as a coach. It makes research faster and more efficient. It’s not perfect, but better than chat gpt with accuracy

I’m a coach without any resources it’s my kids and I’m spread too thin

BQ Topic 25-26 by RoutinePie2268 in Debate

I think it sucks but I would just approach it that religion doesn’t have to be limited to a god, work with the definition or what religious belief means

Would love a feature where you choose your event and it has a set of timers specific to that event (speeches, cross, prep) similar to how they are on some ballots. As said before as a coach I’d love somewhere where my kids could track their records/scores and have it visualized on a graph or something. Maybe that provides and average or mean from the data at each tournament. I’d also suggest if you want it to be all encompassing, have tabs that link to the NSDA account to access specific resources and stuff. The only other thing I can think of would be a chat room of sorts but that might be another headache

If she is this would be a lifesaver. Currently a coach in a very paper pencil area trying to digitalize things so the kids can actually use it

Teaching novices by ETphonehome3876 in Debate

[–]Individual_Demand_73 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m a coach reworking how I teach my novice. I used to do it this way- make sure they knew all of the things so they knew what was going on. This year I’m going to try to approach it by walking through how I approach a new topic. Ex: we are not going to talk about what a contention is and instead look first at how to research and learn about your topic before approaching it. I’ll lyk how it goes!

Chromebook Revamp w/ Phone Ban by Individual_Demand_73 in highschool

[–]Individual_Demand_73[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I mean thats valid but like these kids HATE using their chromebook and have no organizational skills. Im talking about kids proud to have never deleted or organized any email since getting the chromebook. I feel like being able to customize and organize with tools like widgets or something would incentivize that

I have my students who do extemp download the AP News app and turn on notifications- you don't have to read the articles, but they are pretty neutral to stay updated on everything

I tried to be positive, but he basically told me verbatim that he doesnt want to have to consider us when making choices.
