PBL Future Labs

What happens when we stop asking AI to do things faster and start using it to design learning better? Jerri and Jamie talk with Phillip Alcock, co-founder of PBL Future Labs, about moving beyond one-off prompts and building intentional AI workflows for project-based learning. Together, we explore how AI can help educators strengthen ideas, create meaningful milestones and micro-targets, and design deeper learning without taking over the thinking. This conversation looks at how AI can strengthen instructional design while keeping human judgment, creativity, and authentic student thinking at the center. --- ABOUT OUR GUEST Phillip Alcock is the Co-Founder & Director of Emerging Technology at PBL Future Labs.
