We kick off this special "Stepping Up" edition by welcoming back our virtual co-host Nancy to discuss the AI revolution happening in 2024. The episode explores what "stepping up" means in this new era of agentic intelligence and transformative learning technologies. Host Mike Palmer reflects on recent conversations with guests like Brian Rosenberg, Dwayne Matthews, and students from the Marcy Lab School - all highlighting the importance of doing hard things, embracing cognitive surplus, and developing durable "brain-to-brain" skills. We also bring in conversations with Bror Saxberg and Charles Fadel to really round out the perspectives. Nancy emphasizes that while AI tools are rapidly advancing, humans must step up by designing compelling experiences that leverage these technologies to drive motivation, vision and human will. We examine the transition of AI from a scientific phase to an engineering one, where the promise of personalization at scale is an emerging challenge. Mike concludes with a highlight from the Palm Court Podcast featuring Dr. Jonathan White about getting comfortable with the messiness of working on real problems. Three key takeaways: Stepping up means identifying the winners and transformative use cases as agentic AI steps up (or falls short). Developing "brain-to-brain" skills like empathy, collaboration and perspective-taking will be crucial for humans to thrive alongside AI. We must get better at discerning problems and mapping the right AI/human tools to solve the messy, complex challenges ahead.

In this episode, Mike Palmer engages in a fascinating discussion with Charles Fadel, the Founder of the Center for Curriculum Redesign and author of Education for the Age of AI. We delve into the intersections of artificial intelligence and education, exploring the implications of AI's rapid advancement and the need for curriculum redesign to make education more relevant. Charles shares his unique perspective, drawing from his diverse background in engineering, working at Cisco, and leading a team focused on redesigning curriculum to focus on relevance. We dive deep into his framework, which encompasses knowledge, skills, character, meta-learning, and motivation, underscoring the importance of cultivating purpose, agency, and identity in learners. Key Takeaways: We examine the engineering phase of AI, where capabilities are converging in potent ways, and the necessity of computational thinking and problem formulation in leveraging these tools effectively. Charles emphasizes the need to modernize traditional disciplines, prioritizing statistics, probability, and data science over excessive trigonometry, reflecting the real-world demands of the modern era. We discuss the multifaceted nature of motivation and the role of AI as a tool to help students pursue their unique purposes, whether designing marine robots or mastering the art of guacamole. As we navigate this fascinating moment in humankind, Charles leaves us with a call to embrace the urgency of addressing humanity's self-created challenges through the judicious integration of AI in education.

Generative AI tools like ChatGPT and DALL-E are becoming more and more impressive and accessible to anyone with a computer, including students. Some educators expressed concerns about cheating, while others are embracing AI as a teaching tool. Reset speaks with a WBEZ reporter Char Daston and CPS teacher Brady Dunnink about how ChatGPT is impacting city classrooms. Then they talk with Leigh Ann DeLyser from CSForAll and Charles Fadel of the Center for Curriculum development about how and whether to expand AI to more education programs.

Much talk about technology in the 21st century is focused around the advent of a new level of computing: artificial intelligence (AI). No sector will go untouched by AI’s reach and capabilities – and this includes teaching. Teachers today already have access to a wide range of technologies that they can use in the classroom, technologies that are getting smarter, sleeker and faster by the day. But how will teaching change if that technology has the ability to adapt, learn and even make decisions? Charles Fadel, Founder and Chairman of the Center for Curriculum Redesign, joins us to talk about how AI will affect teaching and what schools can do to prepare. https://curriculumredesign.org
