From the Cool Cat Teacher Blog by Vicki Davis Follow @coolcatteacher on Twitter Todoist has a new AI Assistant built into the tool that you can add to the program. After I installed the Todoist AI Assistant , I opened up the task “clean out the car” and asked it to generate subtasks. It specified subtasks which I added with a click.

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.
