In this thought-provoking episode of the "Joining the Dots" podcast, hosts Matt Jessop and Al Kingsley chat with Dr. Nick Jackson, AI expert and co-author of "The Next Words: AI and Teachers." Diving into the dynamic intersection of artificial intelligence and education, Nick challenges us to move beyond the superficial integration of AI, urging educators to fundamentally reconsider the very essence and purpose of education.
The discussion explores how AI highlights the uniquely human elements of teaching, creating urgency to redefine educational values, pedagogy, and assessment methods.
From the challenges of digital inequality and infrastructure gaps in schools, both in the UK and Australia, to practical strategies for rapidly building teacher confidence with AI, this episode calls for bold and thoughtful action.
Listen in as Nick, Al, and Matt envision a future where embracing AI not only transforms education but ensures no learner or teacher is left behind.
