Why This Series?

The standard narrative about AI in education doesn’t match what I’m experiencing. We hear about “preparing students for the future” as if we know what that future holds.

What to Expect?

We’ll explore a different aspect of navigating these uncertain waters: Part 1: The Current is Strong - We’ll start by acknowledging the shared experience of uncertainty. How the traditional hierarchy of knowledge has flattened, and why that might be exactly what we need. Part 2: Finding Your Paddle - We’ll explore how learning itself is changing when information has a half-life measured in months, not years.
