AI Tools in Glow

Ahead of our AI Tools showcase this week, I though it would be helpful to share again our AI Staff Toolkit for Gemini and Notebook LM. Here you will find the playlist to watch again all our sessions so far, alongside lots of guides and ideas of how you as an educator can make use of these fantastic tools to support learning and teaching. We regularly update our Staff Toolkits so make sure you check back regularly for more useful hints!

Safer Internet Day 10 February

There are lots of activities happening for Safer Internet Day 2026. Here are a couple of Education Scotland’s key activities:

  1. Digital Youth Work Conference: A day of insights, discussion and networking, with new resources, keynote speakers, workshops and plenty of interactivity. Key topics include Exploring AI, Developing ethical partnerships with the tech sector, Digital Youth Work Research Hub, and Supporting young people’s digital lives. The Conference is at Heart of Midlothian Football Club, Edinburgh. Book at: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/digital-youth-work-conference-edinburgh-2026-tickets-1975274568407.
  2. Sky Up Academy Studios Event for Schools: Sky Up Academy Studios in Livingston will host visiting schools in an immersive experience that supports online safety, digital wellbeing and responsible media creation.  Pupils will step into the role of content creators, producing news reports, films and creative media. The sessions are designed to prompt meaningful discussion and critical thinking around staying safe and respectful online, digital footprints, identifying misinformation and using technology positively to share stories and ideas.  This experiential model links learning directly to the ways students consume and create content, fostering safe, empathetic and responsible digital behaviour.  More information and booking at:  https://www.skyup.sky/academy-studios.
