The BIGGEST Mistakes Teachers and Schools Are Making With AI

from Make an IIIMPACT - The User Inexperience Podcast · host Makoto Kern

WARNING: The way we've educated our children for the last 20 years is now obsolete. The "AI divide" isn't just a buzzword; it's a crisis that is creating two classes of students: those prepared for an AI-augmented future and those being left behind. The methods that once worked are now a disservice, leaving students unprepared for a world where 85% of the jobs in 2035 haven't even been invented yet.In this critical episode of "Make an IIIMPACT," we expose the "calculator myth" and the devastating consequences of ignoring AI's role in education. We're not just talking about technology; we're talking about a fundamental shift in how we prepare the next generation for the real world.We bring in voices from the front lines: Scott Harden, a Pasadena Unified School Board member and our own Product Innovation Strategist, and Dan Salas, a 26-year veteran teacher with 19 years in special education. They reveal the raw, unfiltered truth about the struggles and triumphs of AI integration in our schools.This episode is a must-watch for:School Administrators & Policymakers: Discover how to navigate the AI transition, avoid costly legal liabilities, and implement effective, district-wide AI strategies.Teachers & Educators: Learn how AI can save you up to 10 hours a week on administrative tasks, reduce burnout, and allow you to focus on what truly matters: your students.Parents: Understand the skills your children actually need for the future and how to advocate for them.Business Leaders & Innovators: See the future of learning and how to build the tools that will shape it.Ready to lead the change?Your organization, school or product cannot afford to be left behind.
