  • My Go-To EdTech podcast

    I discovered this podcast two months ago when I heard about it at the ISTE conference and it quickly became my go-to edtech podcast! Matt and Liz offer a nuanced approach, neither AI cheerleaders or naysayers, just a presentation coming from their vast experience and knowledge about what works in the K12 classroom. The podcast is also highly entertaining with Matt’s occasionally naughty and always funny sense of humor. I especially appreciate their current series interviewing students in both K... more

  • Great education AI perspective

    I work in the Ed tech industry where we are not only learning to apply AI in our work but also understanding how teachers and students can apply AI ethically in the classroom.

    I listen to this podcast to keep track on both—they give the latest AI developments in an approachable and fun way and give great ideas about appropriate classroom applications. Helpful and entertaining!

I was feeling a bit overwhelmed, to say the least and had NO idea where to start, and then I came upon your ChatEDU: AI in Education podcasts. WOW! I LOVE how you take the scary edge off and provid... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

A Common Sense AI Curriculum | Ep. 126
Q: What is the main shift in Common Sense Media's AI literacy curriculum?
The shift is toward grounding AI literacy in durable human skills like critical thinking, curiosity, and human connection, with classroom designs that promote dialogue and collaborative learning rather than mere tool usage.
Reframe - How a Student Team from India Built an Ethical AI Learning Platform | Ep. 122
Q: How does Refyn technically enforce ethical use of AI prompts for learners on school networks?
Refyn uses a network-level filter and an Artificial Prompt Integrity Engine that classifies prompts as ethical or unethical based on extensive training data; unethical prompts are rewritten by an LLM into learning-oriented prompts and then routed back to the user's AI system.
Reframe - How a Student Team from India Built an Ethical AI Learning Platform | Ep. 122
Q: What inspired Avyaay to start Refyn Technologies and how did the idea come about?
Avyaay explains that in seventh grade, while classmates were using ChatGPT, he and his friends realized AI could be misused for cheating, which sparked the idea to build an ethical learning platform that guides students through AI-enabled problem solving rather than providing direct answers.
Low & Slow - Avoiding the Hype with Alexandra Walsh (Amplify) | Ep. 121
Q: How is Amplify approaching AI internally and ensuring it benefits teachers most?
Amplify is deliberately cautious, maintaining high quality and teacher-focused use cases, piloting features like Discussion Moments to assist teachers while preserving the human-in-the-loop in classroom dynamics.
Keeping Student Thinking Visible: Why AI is Making Classrooms Harder (In a Good Way) | Ep. 117
Q: Tell us a little bit about yourself, and then we'll weave into this classroom thing.
Kate Avcollie describes over 20 years of teaching, the shift to AI experimentation in her district, and implementing an AI policy. She details piloting a program in her English classes and collaborating with colleagues to scaffold AI use from 6th through 12th grade.
