Jethro D. Jones sits down with Simon and Jill from ClassVR at ISTE 2026 to talk about the company's newest VR innovations in education. They dive into Thrive, a sensory regulation product designed to support students who struggle with dysregulation, and preview ClassVR's new STEM library, which lets students safely experience hands-on experiments (like chemistry reactions and dissections) that are often limited by budget or safety concerns in real classrooms. The conversation also explores how VR builds "organic skills" that develop over time, why immersive, judgment-free environments help students practice soft skills, and what schools should consider before adopting VR — from full-solution onboarding to keeping VR sessions short and focused for maximum engagement.

Outline and Show NotesShow Title: AI Beyond the Talk with Dr. Rachelle Dené PothPower Quote: “We don't need to be the expert”Teaser:I recorded today's interview on July 8 and it's just a week since I was at the ISTE-ASCD national conference in Orlando and ISTE is a very tech focused, educational organization and as you can imagine so much of the talk at the conference was about AI to be honest I'm feel like I'm a bit over AI I'm getting deluge with AI generated emails in my business and seeing stuff on LinkedIn that is clearly AI generated and it just feels like it's making part of my world of more fake was less authentic and less human centered and yet AI is a useful tool and it's not going away so I wanted to have someone on the show who could help us navigate AI and look at it specifically for the role of the assistant principal.Sponsor Spot 1:I'd like to thank Kaleidoscope Adventures for sponsoring today's show.

What are you celebrating today?Is there a story that will help listeners understand why you are doing what you do?Questions/Topics/PromptsCan we begin with clarifying the difference between AI in education and AI Education?In a May 28th blog post, you wrote, “What I have learned from working with school Task Forces across the country is that they have had many conversations around AI, screen time, and tech use. They have explored the possibilities and understand the urgency with these topics, but they also have a similar question. What do we do now? And this is where I believe that leadership matters most.”I'd like to begin there. Actually, not with the what but with the why – why do we need to act and why do we need to act now? What's the danger of not getting this right?You advocate for a systems approach. Please take us through that.Sponsor Spot 2:I want to thank IXL for sponsoring this podcast…Everyone talks about the power of data-driven instruction. But what does that actually look like?

Jethro D. Jones interviews Jamie Candee (CEO of Edmentum) about bridging the gap between K-12 education and career readiness. They discuss how AI is reshaping the job market, why "durable skills" matter more than ever, and how schools can expose students to career paths early through career exploration tools, workplace internships, and real-world partnerships (like Edmentum's MajorClarity platform and Roadtrip Nation videos). Candee shares personal stories — including her son Milo's journey exploring baseball-adjacent careers — to illustrate how students can find purpose beyond the traditional "doctor, lawyer, teacher" track. The conversation also covers practical advice for principals looking to build career-connected learning pathways in their own schools. We're proud to be sponsored by IXL.

For twenty-five years we sent the struggling kid to the back of the room with headphones on. Todd Brekhus of Renaissance explains why that model broke personalized learning, and how teacher-facing AI hands the room back to you. Todd Brekhus is Chief Product Officer at Renaissance, General Manager of Nearpod, a former English teacher and technology director, and the creator of the myON literacy platform. We recorded this conversation at ISTE 2026. In this episode, you'll learn: - Why "personalized learning" quietly pushed teachers out of the loop, and what changes when you say "personalized teaching and learning" instead - How to pull last year's skill-level data and plan two paths before tomorrow's lesson - Why back-of-the-room intervention stigmatizes kids, and how to differentiate inside the core lesson - The case for a formative check every six to eight minutes without leaving your slides - Why Renaissance deliberately chose not to build student-facing AI, and what productive struggle has to do with it This episode is sponsored by Renaissance. Renaissance Intelligence connects the loop across assessment, curriculum, instruction, practice and proficiency, so educators can act on student needs in real time.

Quantum computing is roughly where AI was nine years ago. Dr. Nneka McGee has already taught it to five-year-olds — with a penny. Nneka is the founder of Muon Global, project lead and principal co-author of the Stanford Accelerator for Learning white paper "AI + Learning Differences," and the author of an ISTE Jump Start Guide on introducing AI to young learners. Her FETC session on quantum for educators is what convinced me this belonged on the show. Her argument is simple and hard to dodge: the technologies that will shape our students' careers are being built right now, states are investing hundreds of millions of dollars in them, and we are sending kids to college without the grounding to take those seats. As she puts it — there will be a breakthrough technology like ChatGPT in quantum at some point, and where will we be as educators if we didn't do what was necessary? Then she gets practical. You'll hear how she teaches superposition, entanglement, and coherence with materials already in your desk drawer. You'll hear about the plate with no nose — an image generator's mistake she turned into a full lesson on why AI still needs a human in the loop. And you'll hear about my own ninth grader, who worked out on her own that attackers could capture encrypted traffic today and decrypt it years from now once quantum arrives. That's a real, named threat, and she nailed it. In this episode: - Why quantum won't replace classical computing, and the problem it's actually built for - The encryption math that makes today's passwords a temporary arrangement - "The nerds before the herds" — the 2022 ISTE room with empty seats - Teaching quantum concepts to four- and five-year-olds - Why the awareness gap is the opportunity, not the obstacle Full show notes, every resource, and free unplugged activities you can use this week: https://www.coolcatteacher.com/e967 ⭐ If this show helps you teach, please leave a rating or review wherever you're listening. It's the single best way to help another teacher find us — and it takes about thirty seconds. Share this one with the teacher down the hall who thinks quantum is over their head. It takes a penny to prove otherwise.

LinkedIn just made a real change to how it ranks content, and it's aimed squarely at AI-generated posts. Captions are getting penalized for running too long, hashtags are being deprioritized, and the platform is now rewarding accounts that show up consistently rather than accounts that post the most. For education marketers already stretched thin, this changes what "good" LinkedIn content actually looks like heading into the busiest stretch of the year.At the same time, EdTech just closed out the first half of 2026, and the industry felt it. Several companies made layoffs as they reconciled H1 numbers against annual goals, a reminder that marketing budgets and headcount are under real scrutiny right now. It's also a good moment to ask a harder question: which parts of your own marketing mix are you keeping simply because you've always done them, and which ones actually have the data to back them up?This field notes episode covers what's moving fast right now: LinkedIn's new rules on AI content and consistency, what recent layoffs signal about EdTech budgets, where national conferences like ISTE fit into a shifting events landscape, subject line ideas worth testing before back-to-school email sends, and a full calendar of what to put on your radar for August and September.What You'll Learn1️⃣ Why LinkedIn is rewriting the rules on content, and why it matters more than a ranking tweak Long, AI-sounding captions and heavy hashtag use are getting penalized, while accounts that post consistently (two to three times a week) are getting rewarded. On top of that, posts are increasingly getting indexed and cited by AI search tools like ChatGPT and Google AI Mode, so what you publish today can still be surfacing your expertise months from now.2️⃣ What the wave of EdTech layoffs after H1 signals about marketing budgets right now Several companies cut staff as they reconciled first-half performance against annual goals, a sign that marketing investment is under real scrutiny. It's a good prompt to look at your own mix and ask what you're keeping simply out of habit versus what the data actually supports.3️⃣ What's actually worth putting on your August and September marketing calendar From back-to-school timing that varies wildly by region, to where national conferences like ISTE fit as attendance shifts toward smaller, regional events, to the literacy, attendance, and gratitude moments worth planning around before October's conference season ramps up.Why It MattersEducation marketers are heading into back-to-school season with less room for error than usual. Budgets are under closer scrutiny after a round of EdTech layoffs, the platform that most B2B education brands depend on just changed what it rewards, and the traditional conference calendar that used to anchor a lot of go-to-market planning is shifting under everyone's feet.None of this is a reason to freeze. It's a reason to be more deliberate: know what you're measuring and why, know what LinkedIn actually rewards right now instead of what worked a year ago, and know exactly when your audience is heads-down in back-to-school mode versus ready to hear from you. The marketers who take the time to recalibrate this summer will be in a much stronger position once the fall buying cycle picks back up.Resources Mentioned in this Episode:Why This EdTech Startup Hired Marketing Before It Had a Product (Karen Borchert, Alpaca)Our episode with Karen Borchert, referenced for her tip on booking demo times on the spot at conference booths instead of relying on post-event follow-up.LinkedIn AI Visibility Study (Semrush)The study behind the stat that LinkedIn was the second most-cited domain across ChatGPT, Google AI Mode, and Perplexity, out of nearly 89,000 LinkedIn URLs analyzed.LinkedIn's Algorithm Update on AI Content and Consistency (Search Engine Land)Covers LinkedIn's move to penalize long, AI-sounding captions and heavy hashtag use, and to reward accounts posting two to three times a week.LinkedIn's own post about keeping conversations real on LinkedInLinkedIn Corporate Communications, June 4, 2026 (originally published by Laura Lorenzetti on LinkedIn, May 20, 2026).Fast Company Article on LinkedIn's AI Slop Crackdown Covers LinkedIn VP of Product Laura Lorenzetti's announcement, framing it as an "AI solving AI" approach targeting generic posts, attention-bait videos, and automation-driven comments.LinkedIn's Shift from Relationships to Interests Our breakdown of how LinkedIn's algorithm moved from surfacing content based on who you're connected to, to surfacing it based on what you engage with, meaning smaller, focused accounts can now outperform bigger ones with unfocused followings.Jay Schwedelson's Podcast Episode on Subject Line TestingReferenced for the case for absurdly long, cut-off subject lines and other unconventional formats worth testing.WeAreTeachers: When Do Kids Go Back to SchoolSource for the stat that 48% of U.S. public schools begin before August 16.Pew Research: Back-to-School Dates in the U.S.Additional back-to-school timing data, including the regional split between early-starting Southern states and later-starting Northeastern states.Rye Consulting's Florida deep-dive A live webinar Tuesday, August 11, 2026, 12:00–1:00 PM ET, with registration open.Tech & Learning Awards of Excellence, Back to School 2026Application deadline is September 4.District Administration's 2027 Top EdTech Products AwardsApplication deadline is October 9; notifications go out November 1.Hallie Smith on LinkedInReferenced for her post on ERDI, outcomes-based pricing, and the contradictions district leaders shared about board relationships and screen time.Katie Test Davis, Forthright AdvisingReferenced for her LinkedIn post on the psychology of negative contrast framing in spam emails ("this is not a scam").

At ISTE 2026, Jethro Jones sits down with Mike Anderson to discuss his new book, Hugging Porcupines: Practical Strategies for Supporting Kids Who Struggle with Behavior in School. They explore why some students disengage, resist connection, and act out — and how teachers can respond with strategies built on the "three-legged stool" of academic engagement, respectful discipline, and positive relationships. The conversation covers building classroom rules collaboratively, the difference between consequences and punishments, and why problem-solving conferences (not just sending kids to the office) are key to real behavior change.

Most teachers know AI belongs in their classroom — almost nobody tells them where to start if they don't teach computer science. Karim Meghji, President and CEO of CodeAI (the nonprofit formerly known as Code.org), gives the answer at ISTE 2026. Vicki took one of Karim's classes on the ISTE show floor before this conversation — including a lesson that asks AI to generate a "healthy meal" and then hands students the cultural bias in the result to talk about. That design choice is the whole episode: students don't learn what AI gets wrong by being told, they learn it by watching it happen and then discussing it. In this episode, you'll learn: - Why CodeAI rebranded from Code.org — and what "glass box instead of black box" means for how you teach - Why Karim's teams deliberately build lessons where the AI answers incorrectly - The question he wants every student asking: who is in control — you or the AI? - What sits behind free student AI tools — pre-filters, post-filters, and hundreds of jailbreak tests - The exact first step for a teacher who has never taught a line of code Karim's answer to "where do I start" is shorter than you'd expect, and it puts the teacher and the students in the same boat on purpose.

Pete Hall joins Jethro Jones live at ISTE 2026 to discuss his new book, Reaching and Teaching Kids Who Don't Fit in the Box. They dig into the five core reasons students disengage from school (not fitting in, academic gaps, boredom, lack of support, and emotional struggles), and share practical strategies teachers can use immediately — including setting self-concordant student goals, using AI to personalize entry tasks around student interests, and asking "cognitive interest cue" questions that spark curiosity instead of just testing recall. The conversation also explores shifting from "who knows the answer" questioning to more inclusive approaches that invite all students to participate, even with wrong answers. Pete closes with details on his book's pre-sale discount. We're proud to be sponsored by IXL.

Why do we have to prove we're human in the age of AI? STEM educator and AI coach Brandie Wright shares the real story behind her ISTE main-stage talk on sparking curiosity — and why the presence of a teacher still matters. When Vicki first heard Brandie's story on the ISTE main stage, she wasn't sure the student was real — that's how believable AI-generated stories have become. This Wonderful Classroom Wednesday conversation is about curiosity, human connection, and the artisanship of teaching in an age when a kid alone with a screen simply isn't enough.

County Clare has a proud reputation for its Irish culture, traditional music and strong network of Gaelscoileanna, yet it's one of just ten counties in Ireland without an independent Gaelcholáiste. That means many students who begin their education through Irish are unable to continue learning through the language at second level. A new open letter to local TDs is calling on the Government to address what many see as a significant gap in Irish-medium education in the county. Joining Alan Morrissey earlier were Ennis-based musician Cathy Potter, who wrote the open letter, and Presenter of Clare FM's Cúl Chaint and Irish language enthusiast Dónal Ó Lionsigh.

Send us Fan MailIn the second-to-last episode of our Secrets of Ireland series, Generation X Paranormal travels to Cork, Ireland to explore the history and haunting claims surrounding Coláiste Eamann Rís — formerly known as Deerpark School.Joining us for this journey are Ryan O'Neill and Greg Stewart of Haunted Scotland as we uncover the stories, local legends, and eerie experiences tied to the school and the surrounding area of Cork.We're also joined by Alex Felix, who returns to discuss a memorable moment from our investigation inside the school — a moment that quickly turned into one of the funniest and most chaotic pranks of the entire Ireland trip.This episode goes beyond jump scares and ghost stories. We discuss the emotional energy connected to places of learning, the residual weight history can leave behind, and why Ireland's haunted locations feel deeply tied to the human experience itself.From reported paranormal activity to Irish folklore and a little paranormal payback among friends, this episode has a little bit of everything.The closer we get to the end of the Secrets of Ireland journey… the stranger things become.Support the showFind us at: gxparanormal.comWatch On YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@generationxparanormal Listen: • Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/generation-x-paranormal/id1661845577?i=1000666351352 • Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/6zQmLQ0F78h8KRuVylps2v?si=79af02a218444d1fFollow us on Social Media: • Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/GenXParanormal • Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/generationxparanormal/ • Twitter (X): https://x.com/GXParanormal
