SUMMARY:CUR Conversation: Teacher Research Thinking and ‘reasoning’ AI
DESCRIPTION:Preservice and in-service teacher thinking risks being outsourced to ‘reasoning’ models of AI (e.g. Open AI 3.0 mini and Deep Seek). Simultaneously\, the same risk is true for the thinking of the school students they teach. This webinar provides ways to manage this risk through conceptualization and practice about facilitating rich research thinking\, using examples from the open-access Springer book ‘Research Thinking for Responsive Teaching’. \nThe webinar overviews the book’s fluid characteristics of teachers’ research thinking\, providing a conceptual framing that may guide what we as educators can do to maximize the benefits of ‘reasoning AI’\, and minimize its risks. Chapters 2 to 8 use the Research Skill Development framework\, adapted to each context\, to guide teacher research thinking.  Chapters 6\, 7 & 8 of the book focus on undergraduate preservice teachers engaging in research (USA)\, digital-rich environments (Australia)\, and with social media (Indonesia)\, and will be featured in the webinar. Teacher research thinking will be presented in the context of recent developments in ‘reasoning’ AI and its consequences for undergraduates. \nRegister here >> \nYou can find the book at https://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-981-99-6679-0
