AI in Education Playbook

Three years after his first LinkedUp appearance, what has actually changed about AI in education? Dr. Wednaud Ronelus, Chief Metaverse Scientist at Alchemist Club Studios and AI Ambassador for the AFT/UFT, rejoins Jerri and Jamie to explore the “cognitive offload crisis,” why keeping students away from AI can do more harm than good, and how educators can redesign curriculum so AI becomes a scaffold instead of a shortcut. Drawing on examples from elementary electromagnetism lessons to a district-wide AI ambassador program in the Bronx, Dr. Ronelus gets practical about responsible AI use. He also examines equity, New York City’s specialized high school admissions crisis, and what it will take for teachers to step confidently into an AI-driven world. --- ABOUT OUR GUEST Dr. Wednaud J.
