By a 4-3 margin, the Arizona State Board for Charter Schools on Monday approved an application from Unbound Academy to open a fully online school serving grades four through eight. Unbound already operates a private school that uses its AI-dependent “2hr Learning” model in Texas and is currently applying to open similar schools in Arkansas and Utah.
Under the 2hr Learning model, students spend just two hours a day using personalized learning programs from companies like IXL and Khan Academy. “As students work through lessons on subjects like math, reading, and science, the AI system will analyze their responses, time spent on tasks, and even emotional cues to optimize the difficulty and presentation of content,” according to Unbound’s charter school application in Arizona. “This ensures that each student is consistently challenged at their optimal level, preventing boredom or frustration.”
Spending less time on traditional curriculum frees up the rest of students’ days for life-skill workshops that cover “financial literacy, public speaking, goal setting, entrepreneurship, critical thinking, and creative problem-solving,” according to the Arizona application.
Actually, man. I appreciate the level of effort that goes into that sort of production. I do find a lot to enjoy in the thrillride aspect and the sheer amount of work that goes into them
Sorry I didn’t conform to your generalization.
But I consider that entertainment entirely separate from being on the edge of my seat in terror for a frail woman in a cabin being antagonized by a metaphor for Satan, grief or loss in a film that cost as much as as one Cybertruck.
What? You’re fitting right in with my expectations.
I could’ve been an absolute prude about it, but there is viable effort, set design, costuming, and work.
It’s written like ass, but hey, trash in, trash out.
