AI as a Teaching Partner

from IgnitED

AI is already part of education - in classrooms, assessment design, learning resources and everyday workflow. The question now is not whether educators will use it, but how they can use it well.  In this episode, Steve Hall, General Manager of VET and Technical Training at PSO, speaks with Matthew Esterman (Founder and CEO, The Next Word), an educator working with schools, systems, and education groups to help them understand AI, map out their next steps, and use emerging tools in practical education settings. He brings 20 years’ experience in schools, including as a history teacher and Director of Innovation and Partnerships. Together, they explore practical uses for AI, the guardrails educators need, and why human judgement must stay firmly at the centre of learning and assessment.  Hosted on Acast.
