​🔍 The AI Premortem: Is "Effortless" Learning Killing Critical Thinking?

We are currently in the middle of the "Great Unwiring." 🧠 ​When we talk about AI in schools, we often celebrate "efficiency." But in education, efficiency is a double-edged sword. If we aren't careful, we are heading toward a strategic failure: a generation of students experiencing Cognitive Atrophy. ​The Risk of the "Easy Button" ​AI is incredible at Level 1 (Recall) and Level 2 (Skills) on the Depth of Knowledge (DOK) scale. The danger arises when students use AI as a surrogate for Level 3 (Strategic Thinking) and Level 4 (Extended Reasoning). ​By offloading the "mental heavy lifting," students bypass the very productive struggle required to build durable cognitive muscles. They graduate with polished outputs but hollow reasoning capacities. ​How we bend the arc back to "AI-Enriched" learning: ​Protect the "Struggle": We must move from "AI-Diminished" environments (passive consumption) to "AI-Enriched" ones where AI acts as a sparring partner, not a ghostwriter. ​The AI Traffic Light: Be explicit about when to use it. ​🔴 Red: No AI. Handwritten essays or oral exams to protect foundational skills. ​🟡 Yellow: AI for scaffolding and brainstorming only. ​🟢 Green: Full integration for complex, multi-modal projects. ​Audit for Sycophancy: Teach students that AI is designed to agree with them (sycophancy). True learning requires "productive friction"—being challenged, not just validated. ​The Premortem is clear: If we make learning effortless, we make it empty. ​Our mandate as leaders is to ensure technology serves the child’s development, not the other way around. Let's prioritize Cognitive Patience over algorithmic speed. ​Are you seeing signs of "cognitive offloading" in your classrooms? How are you pivoting your assessment strategy to fight it? 👇 ​#CriticalThinking #AIinEd #EducationLeadership #CognitiveLoad #FutureOfLearning #aiineducation #21stcenturyskills #adaptability #agi #ai #aieducator #aiforall
