Chris and Matt discuss school and university systems are quietly rethinking some of their biggest bets of the last two decades. In K‑12, districts that spent billions on laptops and tablets during the pandemic are now limiting screen time or putting devices away in response to parent concerns about distraction, mental health, and academic performance. At the same time, Kansas City Public Schools is making a dramatic platform shift, replacing around 30,000 Windows PCs and Chromebooks with Apple devices it describes as more secure, durable, and reliable.   In higher education, Harvard has voted to cap straight‑A grades at roughly 20 percent per class starting in 2027, its most aggressive effort yet to push back against grade inflation. And new labor‑market data show that a master's degree no longer offers the job security it once did, with unemployment among under‑35 master's holders near a 20‑year high.   We tie these stories together into a bigger question: are we watching the beginning of a reset on educational technology, grading, and credentials? And what should students, parents, and educators do about it? Links discussed: Why some US schools are cutting back on the technology they spent billions on (Slashdot / Washington Post) Harvard votes on limiting A grades (Slashdot, Axios, Washington Post, The Crimson) “A Master's Degree Isn't the Job Guarantee It Used To Be” (Slashdot / Wall Street Journal) Kansas City Public Schools to replace 30,000 Windows PCs and Chromebooks with Apple devices (9to5Mac / PCMag) See you on the Digital Flipside!

On this week's episode, the guys test whether artificial intelligence can replace a person - with AI‑cloned "Josh" sprinkled through the episode. Chris and Mark cover the rapid early success of Apple's new MacBook Neo, including Kansas City Public Schools' plan to replace roughly 30,000 Windows PCs and Chromebooks after a 4,500‑unit proof of concept. Elizabethtown Area School District's cell phone and smartwatch ban (and the community reaction to program names like “Cellcatraz” versus “Device Den”) is discussed. The guys highlight new guidance from the National Council of Teachers of English on using AI in ELA classrooms, centered on a practical stoplight model (red, yellow, green) that helps teachers define AI use. A major segment revisits last week's episode about showing movies in class. Finally, Chris interviews Chantell Manahan, Director of Technology at MSD of Steuben County, to discuss her district's experience with SysCloud.

North Dakota is in the midst of a heated, divisive primary between traditional Republicans and populists. Who will win in key legislative races around the state? Who will advance to the general election in some of the competitive statewide races? Who will be the next mayor of Fargo, and will that ballot measure implementing a single-subject rule for proposed constitutional amendments pass? Me and co-host Chad Oban make our predictions. Also on this episode, Sen. Michelle Axtman, who is in the midst of one of those heated primaries in Bismarck-area District 7, talks about a new survey about technology in schools. Lawmakers passed legislation to ban cell phone use in schools by students, but what about technology that's provided by the schools? Are students on Chromebooks and tablets too much? Axtman and a coalition of other state leaders -- including Superintendent Levi Bachmeier, Lt. Gov. Michelle Strinden, and First Lady Kjersti Armstrong -- have commissioned a study asking for input from educators, administrators, parents, and the public. "I'm a STEM person as a pilot. Technology is a big part of learning that industry as well," she said. "None of us want to get rid of technology, wipe it out of the classrooms." But they are trying to find out what the right balance is. As for her primary race, Axtman admitted to being "nervous" about it, but added that nobody running for elected office should take it for granted. She says she's happy with the race she's running. "I'm really proud of the fact that we've focused on what things we are going to do if elected rather than slamming our opponents or doing anything like that," she said.

In this episode, Chris and Matt break down a wave of new laptop and PC news that's reshaping the platform landscape for the next few years. Nvidia's N1X Arm chips are finally headed to consumer Windows gaming laptops, with a next‑gen N2 platform already on the roadmap for 2027. Intel is firing back at Apple's MacBook Neo with its new Core Series 3 mobile CPUs, while Microsoft doubles down on Intel for its latest business‑focused Surface Pro 12 and Surface Laptop 8 models. We also look at Googlebook, Google's new AI‑native laptop platform that blends Android and ChromeOS with deep Gemini integration—complete with a “Magic Pointer” and prompt‑based custom widgets meant to succeed the traditional Chromebook. Then we zoom out to hardware design and reliability, from HP's EliteBoard G1a “PC inside a keyboard” to a new report claiming Windows PCs crash three times as often as Macs in the workplace. If you're trying to decide what laptop ecosystem to bet on for the next 3–5 years—Windows, Mac, or Google's new AI‑centric world—this episode is for you.

The show opens with discussion around Apple's latest immersive Vision Pro experience, "Real Madrid: The Weight of Greatness," a new Apple Immersive Video documentary filmed using more than 30 Blackmagic cameras during the 2025 Champions League. The panel talks about Apple continuing to expand immersive sports storytelling while also connecting it to the company's growing MLS partnership. The conversation quickly turns humorous as Guy wonders whether there's a "fake Madrid," while Jeff enjoys Dave's attempts at pronouncing soccer player names. The team then dives into Google's upcoming AI smart glasses announced during Google I/O. These audio-first glasses, developed with Samsung and Warby Parker, sparked debate over privacy, practicality, and whether anyone actually wants AI glasses without displays. Marty compares them to Meta's Ray-Ban glasses, while Jeff jokes they're "birth control glasses." The panel also raises concerns about privacy, facial recognition, and always-on cameras in public spaces. WWDC 2026 excitement continues building as Apple officially announced the keynote schedule and media invitations for June 8. The group discusses rumors surrounding iOS 27, Siri upgrades, AI integration, and the annual anticipation surrounding Apple's biggest software event. Jill shares that she's often more excited about software announcements than hardware reveals, while Dave calls WWDC "a holiday." The panel also spends time discussing Apple's preview of new accessibility features powered by Apple Intelligence. Updates to VoiceOver, Magnifier, Accessibility Reader, subtitles, and Vision Pro wheelchair controls impressed the group, with several hosts sharing personal stories about how accessibility tools already help them daily. The team praises Apple for remaining an industry leader in accessibility innovation year after year. On the Mac side, the discussion focuses on Kansas City Public Schools transitioning 30,000 students away from Windows PCs and Chromebooks to Apple devices, including MacBook Neo laptops. The panel talks about Apple's growing affordability in education, the long-term benefits of students learning on macOS, and how Apple Silicon helped Apple finally compete aggressively at lower price points. Dave also highlights Hovercraft, a new Mac app designed to improve presentations during video calls without fully replacing the presenter's camera feed. The panel compares the lightweight tool to Ecamm Live while discussing whether the app's one-time pricing model is sustainable. A new recurring segment debuts: "In Touch with Jeff's Blog," where Jeff discusses Meta laying off 8,000 employees while aggressively shifting focus toward AI initiatives. The panel critiques Meta's priorities, especially layoffs impacting cybersecurity and integrity teams, and debates whether the company is simply chasing the next big trend. Jeff's second blog topic covers Plex dramatically increasing the price of its lifetime Plex Pass license from $249 to $749. The panel reacts with disbelief, jokes about "lifetime" depending on your age, and discusses how subscription pricing models continue reshaping software businesses.

Stuart Hutchinson, VP of Sales at ADF Solutions, joins the Forensic Focus Podcast to talk about on-scene digital forensics and empowering first responders during the golden hour. Stuart shares his journey from 23 years with the Met Police — including a chance encounter in a New Scotland Yard lift that led him into Mac forensics and the vendor space at BlackBag, Cellebrite, Oxygen, and now ADF. With 99.9% of investigations involving a digital element, he argues that mishandling digital evidence at the scene is as damaging as trampling through traditional forensic evidence. The conversation covers ADF's preview mode and search profile methodology, which gives first responders advanced logical acquisitions in minutes rather than 45+ minutes for a full extraction. Stuart explains how one UK force cut lab submissions by over 40% using an intelligence-led CAID hash triage strategy, and the team discuss locked-down search profiles built at DFU level, managing collateral intrusion, building trust with victims and witnesses, and ADF's screen capture and OCR for Chromebooks, PlayStations, Xboxes, and anything with HDMI out. #ADFSolutions #OnSceneTriage #MobileForensics #CAID #CSAM #FirstResponders #DigitalForensics #DFIR 00:00 Introducing Stuart Hutchinson and ADF Solutions 02:13 From Met to Mac Forensics 07:26 Why On Scene Triage 08:01 Golden Hour Decisions 13:24 What to Triage First 16:26 ADF Field Kit Overview 18:04 Preview Mode Workflow  22:34 Search Profiles and Staging 26:38 Investigator Over Automation 28:11 Impact and CSAM Hashing 29:34 CAID Hash Triage Strategy 32:45 Efficiency Versus Thoroughness 35:07 Locked Search Profiles 37:20 Training For Limitations 42:46 Device Security Pressures 44:45 From Triage To Full Forensics 47:44 Victim Witness Phone Trust 52:27 Screen Capture And OCR 57:49 Wrap Up And Resources

News and Updates: AI Compute Tax Debate: Economists and policymakers are debating taxing AI processing power to offset job displacement and fund social services, though critics argue it's too blunt a tool. AI Dividend Proposal: NY congressional candidate Alex Bores unveiled an "AI Dividend" plan funding direct payments to Americans through a token tax on AI consumption and equity stakes in frontier AI firms. Screenless Fitness Trackers Surge: Screenless wearables like Oura Ring and Whoop are booming, with U.S. fitness tracker purchases up 88% and smart ring sales up 195% between 2024 and 2025. Canvas Hacker Payout: Instructure, maker of the Canvas education platform, reached an undisclosed "agreement" with the ShinyHunters hacking gang after a breach exposed data from 275 million users across 9,000 institutions. FCC Router Ban vs. Supply Chain: AT&T warned the FCC that a global DRAM and NAND flash shortage, driven by AI deployments, is complicating compliance with its ban on foreign-made Wi-Fi routers. Google Unveils Googlebook: Google announced a new laptop line called Googlebooks running a fused Android/ChromeOS platform, featuring Gemini AI integration and a "Magic Pointer," with hardware partners including Acer, Dell, HP, and Lenovo.

I started off the podcast by noting that I'm testing yet another budget-friendly microphone, the Boya CastMic G30, which features a gaming-style "glow" that led us into a deep dive on the recently announced Googlebook and its Battlestar Galactica Cylon-like Glowbar. Announced at a pre-Google I/O Android Show, the Googlebook is an AI-first, Android-based premium device positioned above the Chromebook. While its Cylon-esque "glow bar" is a fun aesthetic touch, I'm skeptical about its potential price point; if it creeps above $599, it might make more sense to buy a MacBook Neo, especially given Android's historical struggle with landscape-oriented tablet apps. We also touched on the future of Android Auto, which is introducing "immersive navigation" with Lane Advisory guidance to help drivers with select supported cars with front cameras navigate multi-lane roads in real-time. The second half of our conversation turned toward the cognitive impact of AI. We debated a recent study claiming that using AI for even ten minutes can impair brain performance, particularly in solving math problems. Jon Westfall, drawing on his background as a cognitive scientist, was skeptical of the study's protocol, while I noted the striking similarity to the "brain mush" warnings I heard about calculators fifty years ago. We wrapped up by discussing how to "smooth over" the friction in our personal hobbies. For Jon, this means a "buy once, cry once" philosophy with high-quality tools like professional knitting needles. For me, retirement has brought a surprising fascination with the mechanics of pencil sharpeners, where I've discovered that investing in a high-quality long-point sharpener is often the key to enjoying the simple act of doodling on paper. Whether it's using AI to remove "ums" and "ahs" from speech via Gboard's new Rambler feature or whittling a pencil to perfection, we agreed that the right tool fundamentally changes the experience

Le patron de Mistral.ai dresse un tableau sans concession de l'IA en Europe • Google muscle Android avec Gemini et réinvente la souris • TikTok attaqué en France • Un conflit social chez Samsung menace la production mondiale de puces • Les rédactions bousculées par l'IA • Publier un livre avec l'intelligence artificielle • Un futur moteur de recherche français boosté à l'IA • Gare à l'IA documentaire mal maîtrisée en entreprise. ⭐️ Découvrez Frogans, l'innovation française qui réinvente le Web [PARTENARIAT]===============================Plaidoyer sans concession pour la souveraineté européenne de l'IAAuditionné à l'Assemblée nationale, Arthur Mensch, cofondateur et directeur général de Mistral AI, a livré une analyse offensive sur l'état de l'intelligence artificielle en Europe. Pour lui, l'IA est devenue une ressource stratégique comparable à l'énergie : elle conditionne la souveraineté économique, militaire et culturelle du continent. Il appelle à investir massivement dans les modèles, les infrastructures et l'électricité bas carbone, faute de quoi l'Europe risque de dépendre durablement des États-Unis et de la Chine. Reste à savoir si Mistral aura les moyens financiers et politiques de rivaliser avec les hyperscalers américains.Vidéo de l'audition d'Arthur Mensch : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kKWOkWv6pJMLa cybersécurité nouveau champ de bataille IALa course à l'IA se déplace sur le terrain stratégique de la cybersécurité. OpenAI aurait présenté un modèle spécialisé capable d'anticiper des vulnérabilités inédites, avec un accès encadré mais ouvert à certaines organisations européennes, tandis que Mistral AI travaillerait également sur un modèle dédié. Ces outils, capables de détecter des failles avant qu'elles ne soient exploitées, deviennent des instruments de souveraineté numérique. Leur contrôle et leur accès sont désormais des enjeux diplomatiques autant que technologiques.Android passe à l'IA agentiqueLors de sa conférence Android, Google a présenté une version agentique de Gemini appelée à s'intégrer au cœur d'Android. Capable d'agir à la place de l'utilisateur, l'assistant pourra naviguer dans les applications, extraire des informations ou remplir des formulaires, avec validation humaine pour les actions sensibles. Une évolution majeure vers un smartphone proactif, qui transforme l'IA en véritable copilote numérique. Le déploiement est attendu progressivement sur les futurs appareils Android.Google réinvente la souris avec l'IALa filiale DeepMind de Google a dévoilé un prototype baptisé “Magic Pointer”, combinant capture d'écran locale et intelligence artificielle. En survolant un contenu, l'utilisateur peut demander instantanément un graphique, un résumé ou un recalcul contextuel. Cette interaction homme-machine repensée pourrait intégrer Chrome et les Chromebooks à terme. Une démonstration spectaculaire qui illustre l'intégration toujours plus fine de l'IA dans les gestes informatiques du quotidien.TikTok dans le viseur de familles françaises endeuilléesSeize familles réunies au sein du collectif Algos Victima ont déposé plainte contre TikTok pour abus de faiblesse, après plusieurs suicides d'adolescentes. Elles accusent l'algorithme de la plateforme d'avoir favorisé l'exposition répétée à des contenus anxiogènes ou dangereux. Au-delà du volet judiciaire, l'affaire relance le débat sur la régulation des réseaux sociaux et sur une possible interdiction avant 15 ans.La CNIL alerte sur les lunettes connectéesLa CNIL (Commission Nationale Informatique et Libertés) met en garde contre les risques de surveillance diffuse liés aux lunettes équipées de caméras et de micros. L'autorité française appelle à un usage responsable et propose plusieurs recommandations pour préserver la vie privée. Si ces dispositifs peuvent rendre des services, notamment pour les personnes malvoyantes, ils posent une question sociétale majeure : comment éviter une banalisation de la captation d'images dans l'espace public ?Samsung sous tension : menace sur la production mondiale de puces IAEn Corée du Sud, 50 000 salariés de Samsung menacent de se mettre en grève pour réclamer une meilleure redistribution des bénéfices liés à l'IA. Le groupe est l'un des rares fabricants mondiaux de mémoire HBM, composant clé des puces d'intelligence artificielle. Un arrêt prolongé de la production pourrait perturber toute la chaîne mondiale des semi-conducteurs. La planète tech observe avec inquiétude ce bras de fer social.IA et journalisme : vers la fin des tâches répétitives ?En direct de Gaspésie, Bruno Guglielminetti, animateur du podcast Mon Carnet, analyse l'impact de l'IA dans les rédactions. Entre menaces de grève et suppression de postes, la réécriture automatisée des dépêches cristallise les tensions. Pour lui, l'IA peut devenir un assistant éditorial précieux, libérant du temps pour l'enquête et le terrain. Un basculement culturel qui oblige les écoles de journalisme à revoir leurs formations.Mon nouveau livre sur le podcasting... publié grâce à l'IAJe vous présente mon livre Lancez votre podcast à l'ère de l'IA, consacré à la création de podcasts avec les outils d'intelligence artificielle. Autoédité avec l'appui d'outils IA pour la structuration, la correction et la mise en forme, le livre explore les nouvelles pratiques du média audio. Une démonstration concrète des mutations en cours dans l'édition et la création de contenus.Ibou, le pari d'un moteur de recherche françaisSylvain Peyronnet, cofondateur et CEO d'Ibou, présente ce moteur de recherche conversationnel français, conçu pour proposer une information plus transparente et pluraliste. L'objectif : éviter les bulles de filtrage et valoriser les sources en exposant les différents points de vue. Grâce aux modèles de langage récents, l'équipe affirme pouvoir bâtir un moteur performant sans dépendre d'une collecte massive de données utilisateurs. Un défi ambitieux face aux géants américains.IA et gestion documentaire : les risques invisibles en entreprise [PARTENARIAT]Guillaume Brault, directeur technique Europe du Sud chez Box, alerte sur les dangers d'une IA branchée sur des bases documentaires mal gouvernées. Sans classification préalable, un agent conversationnel peut faire remonter des informations sensibles à des collaborateurs non habilités. La clé réside dans l'étiquetage et la gouvernance des données afin de contrôler précisément ce que les modèles peuvent consulter et restituer. L'IA devient ainsi un révélateur des failles organisationnelles internes.Hébergé par Audiomeans. Visitez audiomeans.fr/politique-de-confidentialite pour plus d'informations.

Is the era of Windows dominance finally coming to an end? This week, Zach Bowen and Ben Wilson dive deep into Google's latest project: the Googlebook. Google is officially moving past the "budget" reputation of the Chromebook and bringing native Android to the premium laptop space. With the "Magic Pointer" AI experience, seamless Gemini integration, and a sleek new interface, Google is striking while the iron is hot. On this episode, we're breaking down: Android for PC: Why Google is swapping Linux for an Android-native core and what that means for your favorite apps. The "Magic Pointer": Is shaking your cursor for AI assistance actually innovative, or just another gimmick?. Windows 10's End of Life: How Google and Apple (with the MacBook Neo) are perfectly timing their new hardware to poach Windows users this fall. The "Nickelback" Effect: Why it's become "cool" to hate on Windows and how Microsoft's fragmented AI strategy is driving users away. Windows 12 & Legacy-Free Computing: Our pitch for a "Modern Windows" that strips out the 90s-era code for instant boot times and better battery life. Can Microsoft turn the ship around with "K2" and Windows 12, or has the Google ecosystem finally closed the loop?

In deze aflevering hebben we het over Android 17, gisteravond door Google onthuld. En de verrassing van de show: Googlebooks, de opvolger van Chromebooks. We blikken ook uit op Google I/O: wat wordt daar nog onthuld? Verder vandaag: Odido zegt maanden na de hack een soort van sorry maar toch ook niet, Ziggo wordt duurder of goedkoper afhankelijk van of je van sport houdt en nieuws voor je rust: providers mogen je straks niet meer ongevraagd bellen. Dan nog zonnepanelen: die blijven gelukkig wel rendabel. Verder vandaag: Odido zegt maanden na de hack een soort van sorry maar toch ook niet, Ziggo wordt duurder of goedkoper afhankelijk van of je van sport houdt en nieuws voor je rust: providers mogen je straks niet meer ongevraagd bellen. Dan nog zonnepanelen: die blijven gelukkig wel rendabel. Tips uit deze aflevering: Site/app: Zonopjebakkes! Het wordt lekkerder weer, dus iedereen vecht op terrassen voor de beste plekjes in de zon. Zonopjebakkes is een Nederlandse app die per terras laat zien hoelaat er precies zon is! Zo weet je van tevoren al waar je wel en niet heen wil. Ook leuk, er staan steeds meer dingen in de app, dus ook openbare bankjes, toiletten, waterpunten en schuilplekken voor stroom. Iedereen kan zelf terrassen en plekken toevoegen. Video: De Mercedes CLA-video van Rutger. Meer dan alleen een blik op de auto van het jaar, maar ook een mooie momentopname van hoe het er nu met elektrische auto's en slimme functies voor staat. Podcast: We Love Nederlands van Tom en Yannick van Rundfunk. Een hele grappige en toch ook heel inhoudelijke blik over waarom Nederlands zo leuk is, en zo uniek. Wel geheel in de stijl van Tom en Yannick: het gaat over waarom verkleinwoordjes lulliger klinken, waarom we in Nederland met ziektes vloeken en hoe je dat kan stapelen en er komen allerlei zelfverzonnen woorden voorbij.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

There are many tech tools making their way into kids' classrooms: Chromebooks and iPads, Canvas and Powerschool, ChatGPT and Claude. Is that a good thing? Depends on who you ask. Some states are passing laws to limit in-school screen time. Rep. Angela Arsenault, a Democrat from Williston, supports these measures, saying Vermont should better regulate the use of tech like chatbots and smartphones in schools. Providing the tech perspective is Sara Kloek, vice president of education policy at the Software & Information Industry Association, a non-profit that represents the interests of EdTech companies. Educators Michael Berry, director of curriculum and technology for the Montpelier Roxbury Public Schools, and Brian Burgess, a speech pathologist at Harwood Union Middle and High School, also provided insight.

This week: The Center for Black Excellence and Culture officially opens its doors, the Foundation for Black Women's Wellness calls for funding after proving its "Saving Our Babies" model works, Urban Triage gets into the hemp business, we remember the founder of Shabazz City High School, and Rally Madison puts together an advisory board for its players. Plus, Dr. Alex Gee's full grand opening speech, and we debate how many hats is too many hats. Stories discussed: "A great day to be Black." Center for Black Excellence and Culture celebrates grand opening — The three-story, 37,000-square-foot building on Madison's South Side held its grand opening Wednesday, featuring a theater, podcast studio, art studio, senior center, co-working space, and more. Dr. Alex Gee raised $32 million to open the center debt-free. His full speech is featured in this episode. "Saving Our Babies" initiative highlights its effectiveness in achieving better birth outcomes for Black mothers and babies — The Foundation for Black Women's Wellness held its seventh annual press conference urging the state to fund programs like ConnectRx and doula services that have shown measurable results in addressing Wisconsin's Black maternal and infant health disparities. Urban Triage launches new hemp brand, Less Noise Wellness, powered by local agriculture, sustainability, and community ownership — Urban Triage launched Less Noise Wellness, a full-spectrum organic hemp and CBD brand grown at Farley Center, in partnership with La Crosse-based Stacks Family Farms and Carbon Cannabis. The move aims to reduce the organization's reliance on government funding. Stuart Dymzarov, founder of Malcolm Shabazz City High School, dies at 81 — Dymzarov, a teacher in Madison who secured a Ford Foundation grant to start the alternative high school in 1971, passed away last week. Rally Madison announces advisory board to support player development on and off the field — The pre-professional women's soccer team announced an advisory board featuring Lauren Sesselmann, Mason Crosby, Jay DeMerit and more to provide mentorship and professional development for players. Fun stuff: The hosts riff on Rob's Chromebook going into tablet mode, Stephanie's ongoing war with Rob's 30–40 hats and shoes scattered around the house, and the group's love-hate relationship with podcast advertising.            

O Google instalou o Gemini em milhões de Chromebooks escolares sem avisar aos pais, sem consultar professores e sem nenhum estudo sobre o impacto no desenvolvimento infantil.Durante a pandemia, escolas americanas compraram Chromebooks em massa. As vendas cresceram 287% em um ano e criaram um mercado cativo que o Google aproveitou para distribuir sua IA a crianças de qualquer idade.Um estudo do MIT de 2025 aponta atrofia cognitiva causada pelo uso de LLMs em ambientes de aprendizado. Uma pesquisa com 1.300 distritos escolares mostra que 1 em cada 5 usos de IA generativa por alunos envolve cola, bullying ou comportamento problemático. Um estudo conjunto do MIT, Carnegie Mellon, UCLA e Oxford mostrou que alunos que usaram IA para resolver problemas de matemática e depois perderam acesso à ferramenta passaram a ter desempenho significativamente pior.A funcionária do departamento de educação de Nova York responsável pelas diretrizes de uso de IA nas escolas recebe uma bolsa conjunta do Google e de uma firma de investimento cujo portfólio inclui exatamente as ferramentas sendo implementadas nas salas de aula.--Reportagem da New Yorker: https://www.newyorker.com/culture/progress-report/what-will-it-take-to-get-ai-out-of-schools--Apresentado por Bruno Natal.--Newsletter O Futuro Explicado: https://resumido.substack.com/subscribeAssinatura: https://resumido.cc/assinaturaLoja RESUMIDO: https://www.studiogeek.com.br/resumido/Ouça mais: https://resumido.cc

I'll be honest. I never paid much attention to school board races until I had kids. Then suddenly it hit me that these decisions actually matter, and I probably needed to stop pretending I had no reason to care.In this episode, I sit down with Ashley Sartelle, who is running for Knox County School Board, to ask the questions I actually wanted answered. What does the school board really do? Why are reading scores still so low? How much power does the board actually have? And why are our kids spending so much time on Chromebooks?We get into reading proficiency, technology in the classroom, teacher burnout, parent accountability, standardized testing, school budgets, and the very weird reality that some kids can just not turn things in until the end of the semester. This conversation made me realize how many pieces of the education system most of us do not understand, and how much we should probably be paying attention.- - - - - - - - - - -Liz Durham Instagram | WebsiteSubscribe Apple Podcast | SpotifyBeing Different with Liz Durham is a Palm Tree Pod Co. production

If your kids are given tech in the classroom -- like a Chromebook, for instance -- do you know just how much time they spend doing things other than schoolwork on it? One mother in Kansas found out that her son watched 13,000 YouTube videos during school hours... in just a 3-month period. It's prompted this kind of discussion on how YouTube has taken over the American classroom.

In this episode, we sit down with Marcy Samayoa, a Los Angeles chemistry teacher, to unpack her bold “tech reset” in the classroom—and what happened next. After noticing how constant screen time (especially post-pandemic) was impacting her students' focus and engagement, Marcy made the surprising move to scale back Chromebook use in favor of more traditional, hands-on learning. What she found was pretty eye-opening: more collaboration, deeper thinking, and students who were actually present again. We also dive into her approach to test prep—ditching gamified tools for structured practice and reflection—and her belief that teaching students how to learn matters more than ever. It's a thoughtful, honest conversation that challenges assumptions about edtech while offering a hopeful look at what classrooms can become when we slow things down and get intentional.

Jessica Winter, staff writer at The New Yorker, covering family and education, discusses her latest reporting on how artificial intelligence tools are cropping up in the classroom, like the pre-installed AI tools on Google's Chromebooks, and why an increasing number of parents and educators are becoming concerned.

This Week: The board of the nation's 2nd largest school district unanimously approved a resolution to place strong limits on screen time for students starting in the 26-27 school year. Citing extensive research showing the negative consequences of too much screen time on everything from vision, to engagement, to mental health, the district's policy will have a sliding scale of maximum screen time, from 0 minutes for the youngest students to greater amounts as students get older. This may be good news for the growing number of parents who see screen time as concerning, and teachers who are struggling to keep students' attention in the classroom. Plus, a fascinating story about the looming threat to American's private, nonprofit colleges, almost one quarter of which are at risk of closure in the next decade. Is this just a response to the shrinking number of students, or something more?
