  • Meh...

    Host speaks as though he only cares about getting through his checklist of topics. Guest was great, but I'm not sure if the content outweighs the periodic cringe-worthy moments.

  • Host is annoying but the guests are great

    Not the best produced podcast (e.g., listened to an episode which included audio of the host blowing his nose while the guest was talking), but the guests are always insightful. I appreciate the content and topics but think the host is just so annoying. He talks over people, repeats himself, and makes not-very-funny jokes. I've nearly unsubscribed because of how annoying I find him, but I've stayed with it because I can't find a podcast with good topics and hosts like these!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Future 2: Building Human Advantage in an AI-Enabled World with Mike Miles
Q: How do AI tools fit into the Future 2 framework without making AI the core driver of learning?
AI literacy is about understanding how an AI-enabled world changes work and learning to use AI tools when appropriate, but the day remains anchored in human competencies such as communication, collaboration, and problem solving; AI serves as a tool to elevate human capabilities, not replace them.
Future 2: Building Human Advantage in an AI-Enabled World with Mike Miles
Q: What does Future 2 look like for a student day from morning to afternoon?
Future 2 combines core subject instruction in the morning with Art of Thinking and a variety of competency-aligned experiences in the afternoon, including 36 annual experiences linked to the ten competencies, plus after-school activities like sports and arts to ensure well-rounded development.
UDL: Accessibility by Design with CAST's Christine Fox & Niel Albero
Q: Why should accessibility be the starting point when designing a learning environment instead of waiting to respond to issues?
Accessibility is the baseline of UDL; without it you cannot truly enable universal design. Designing with accessibility from the start ensures that all students—regardless of device, ability, or background—can access and engage with learning.
UDL: Accessibility by Design with CAST's Christine Fox & Niel Albero
Q: For listeners who may only know UDL at a surface level, can you explain what it is and the impact it's designed to make?
UDL is a framework that centers learner variability from the start, guiding design decisions so all students have access and agency. It shifts the mindset from reacting to barriers to proactively creating inclusive environments.
Seeing the Child Behind the Outcome with Alexander Kopelman
Q: How can educators balance academic standards with the goal of helping each child contribute uniquely and authentically?
The host and Kopelman discuss redefining success to include emotional and social growth, designing systems that recognize authentic contribution, and encouraging educators to value process and personal development alongside tests and grades.
