This article describes Australia's FarmBeats for Students initiative that offered "the opportunity to participate in a hands-on AI sustainable learning experience applying smart farming techniques to food production." The initiative, which consisted of lesson plans and relevant technology, allowed students to "gain access to historical data from the local area to examine the changes that have taken place in the climate over time and to consider how those changes impact current and future growing conditions." This is the sort of blending of tech, real-world data, and authentic practice that I think will become more common in education. Its impact will have to be measured through more than just test scores, though.
