'This is an apartheid regime' Does Trump have real leverage over Netanyahu? A handful of electronic components, a few wires and a basic programmable circuit board are enough to bring a group of curious children around a table in central Gaza to learn about robotics. Students at The Next Gen Team: Rising Robotics Engineer Project in Deir el-Balah learn how to integrate sensors into alarm systems, study robotics, understand how motors and drive units work, as well as get firsthand experience with programming. The robotics and early warning systems they are working on could make way for bigger developments such as early detection of gas leaks and fires or help rescue workers access hard-to-reach areas, such as victims trapped under rubble. Today's lesson will also teach students the sciences of the future and help them keep pace with technological advancements happening outside Gaza's borders. Before the war, students had access to schools, universities, incubators and training programmes to pursue an interest in technology.

Should the Classroom Be More Like the Gym? As A.I. presses harder on the academic enterprise, we might look to a place where process is its own reward. When I'm in New York, I take spin classes on the Upper East Side. It is not especially pleasant. It is not supposed to be. We have chosen, quite deliberately, to subject ourselves to forty-five minutes of physical discomfort for benefits accrued down the road: better health, greater strength, a future version of ourselves that will justify the soreness tomorrow morning.

Once the music industry's biggest headache, Napster's next act is bringing AI to the classroom. The name that struck fear into the hearts of music executives in the early dotcom era may be coming to a classroom near you. In Dubai, United Arab Emirates, it has signed a strategic partnership with Gems Education to build AI agents and digital personas for education. In doing so, the once-notorious music-sharing company is bringing its technology into the classroom and testing how AI can augment the work of both teachers and students. Today's Napster, of course, bears no resemblance to its original incarnation as a peer-to-peer music-file-sharing service.

Natasha Singer's book "Coding Kids" tracks how public schools were bewitched by private corporations, setting the stage for the ed-tech backlash of today. Over Labor Day weekend, Springfield Public Schools, a district in western Massachusetts that serves twenty-three thousand students across some sixty schools, fell prey to a cyberattack that shuttered classes for four days. Staff members lost access to students' contact information, transcripts, and medical records; internal phone lines, security-camera systems, and even copy machines went down. Teachers and students couldn't use their school-issued laptops or log into their e-mail or other school applications from home devices. Springfield's schools use the Microsoft 365 Education and PowerSchool software platforms to house most of the stuff of everyday learning--schedules, assignments, slide decks, readings, handouts, quizzes--but everything stored there was now out of reach.
