Write for The Connected Classroom

Perspectives features critical analysis from educators, researchers, and practitioners challenging conventional thinking about AI in education. We publish voices examining how technology affects human development, learning, and the future of teaching.

What We’re Looking For

We're looking for evidence-based perspectives that:

  • Challenge EdTech assumptions - Question whether AI tools serve learning or efficiency

  • Examine human development - Analyze how technology affects critical thinking, creativity, and moral reasoning

  • Provide institutional critique - Explore why schools adopt technologies and whose interests they serve

  • Offer classroom reality - Share what actually happens when educators implement (or resist) AI tools

We do NOT publish:

  • Product reviews or EdTech promotions

  • "How to use [AI tool]" tutorials

  • Generic AI integration advice

  • Content designed to drive traffic to commercial platforms

We welcome submissions from:

  • K-12 and higher education practitioners with classroom experience

  • Researchers studying AI's impact on learning and development

  • Educational leaders navigating institutional AI decisions

  • Instructional coaches working with teachers on technology integration

You should have: A critical perspective on educational technology, evidence to support your analysis, and willingness to question popular narratives.

Generative AI & Content Integrity
