#SCOTUS cleared the way Monday for #California #schools to out children that identify as #transgender to their parents without getting the student’s approval, granting an emergency appeal from a conservative legal group.

The order blocks for now a state law that bans automatic parental notification requirements if students change their pronouns or gender expression at school.

#RedCross calls for respect for #RulesOfWar

“The #military escalation in the #MiddleEast is igniting a dangerous chain reaction across the region, with potentially devastating consequences for #civilians,” #ICRC President Mirjana Spoljaric said.

Spoljaric said civilian infrastructure, such as #schools, #homes & #hospitals, must be spared from attacks.

"More than half of teenagers in the United States use artificial intelligence tools for help with their schoolwork, according to a new study from the Pew Research Center.

Fifty-four percent of students ages 13 to 17 said they had used a chatbot like OpenAI’s ChatGPT or Microsoft’s Copilot for tasks like researching school assignments or solving math problems, Pew said in a report published on Tuesday.

In 2024, 26 percent of U.S. teenagers said they had used ChatGPT for their schoolwork, according to a previous Pew study asking specifically about their use of that chatbot. That was a twofold increase from 2023, when only 13 percent of students said they used ChatGPT for school help, according to Pew, a nonpartisan research center.

The latest report, based on a survey of 1,458 teenagers and their parents last fall, found that A.I. use among teenagers varied widely. While 44 percent of teenagers said they used A.I. for “some” or “a little” schoolwork, 10 percent said they turned to chatbots for help with all or most of their schoolwork.

“We’re definitely seeing that the use of A.I. chatbots for help with schoolwork is becoming a common practice for teens,” said Colleen McClain, a senior researcher at Pew and a co-author of the study."
