EDT Jake on The Conversation Podcast

Educational Duct Tape: An EdTech Integration Mindset

Can AI help teachers do more of what matters most? In this episode, I join Rachel and Christina from The Conversation podcast to explore AI's real impact in schools. We discuss tools like MagicSchool, Diffit, and Brisk, and how they support both students and teachers. We also dive into personalized learning, teacher PD, and the "baby steps" approach to AI adoption. Plus, I share practical insights on balancing tech with humanity in the classroom.
