In today's episode, we have the first part of a two-part miniseries on risk management, risk mitigation and risk assessment in AI learning tools. Professor Rose Luckin is away in Australia, speaking internationally, so Rowland Wells takes the reins to chat with Educate Ventures Research team members about their experience managing risk as teachers and developers. What does a risk assessment look like and whose responsibility is it to take onboard its insights? Rose joins our discussion group towards the end of the episode, and in the second instalment of the conversation, Rowland sits down with Dr Rajeshwari Iyer of sAInaptic to hear her perspective on risk and testing features of a tool as a developer and CEO herself. View our Risk Assessments here: https://www.educateventures.com/risk-assessments In the studio: Rowland Wells, Creative Producer, EVR Dave Turnbull, Deputy Head of Educator AI Training, EVR Ibrahim Bashir, Technical Projects Manager, EVR Rose Luckin, CEO & Founder, EVR Talking points and questions include: Who are these for? what's the profile of the person we want to engage with these risk assessments? They're concise, easy-to-read, no technical jargon. But it's still an analysis, for people with a research/evidence mindset. Many people ignore it: we know that even learning tool developers who put research on their tools ON THEIR WEBSITES do not actually have it read by the public. So how do we get this in front of people? Do we lead the conversation with budget concerns? Safeguarding concerns? Value for money? What's the end goal of this? Are you trying to raise the sophistication of conservation around evidence and risk? Many developers who you critique might just think you're trying to make a name pulling apart their tools. Surely the market will sort itself out? What's the process involved in making judgements about a risk assessment? If we're trying to demonstrate to the buyers of these tools, the digital leads in schools and colleges, what to look for, what's the first step? Can this be done quickly? Many who might benefit from AI tools might not have the time to exhaustively hunt out all the little details of a learning tool and interpret them themselves? Schools aren't testbeds for intellectual property or tech interventions. Why is it practitioners' responsibilities to make these kind of evaluations, even with the aid of these kind of assessments? Why is the tech and AI sector not capable of regulating their own practices? You've all worked with schools and learning and training institutions using AI tools. Although this episode is about using the tools wisely, effectively and safely, please tell us how you've seen teaching and learning enhanced with the safe and impactful use of AI

In this episode of the Everyday Innovation Podcast, I interview Nick Jain, CEO of Ideascale , an innovation management platform, to explore his journey and insights on driving collaborative innovation. Nick shares how his unique experiences, from navigating the challenges of immigration to building a STEM foundation and leading across diverse industries, have shaped his approach to innovation. Together, we discuss decision-making frameworks, the role of data in guiding innovative strategies, and how IdeaScale's platform empowers organizations—big and small—to harness and implement collective ideas efficiently. While innovation management often feels most urgent for mid-to-large-sized companies, these frameworks, tools, and tactics are just as relevant for smaller teams and even solo founders. We also explore the decision-making processes foundational to effective innovation, a theme I'll be exploring in future episodes. Nick's practical insights provide a roadmap for integrating systematic innovation into daily operations and offer actionable takeaways for personal growth and professional advancement, especially for founders and leaders who want to foster resilience and creativity in their teams. Chapter Timestamps Introduction to Nick Jain (00:59) Current Reads & Learning Tools (01:29) Nick's Early Years and Cultural Adaptation (06:01) The Spark for Science and STEM Foundation (11:53) Transition into Consulting and Investment (15:52) Leadership Across Diverse Industries (19:30) Introduction to Innovation Management (23:09) How IdeaScale Supports Organizations (25:07) The Role of Frameworks in Decision-Making (31:14) Managing Innovation with Transparency and Meritocracy (32:58) Nick's Personal Innovation Practices (34:52) Reflection and Experimentation in Business (39:30) Future of Innovation at IdeaScale and Beyond (42:18) Advice for Mid to Large Organizations on Innovation (44:26) Closing Thoughts on Innovation and Final Question (48:01) Contact Information and Resources (51:43) Key Takeaways Innovation Begins with a Framework – Structured frameworks, like ROI analysis, ensure innovation efforts are focused on value-adding actions rather than intuition alone. Create a Culture of Idea Meritocracy – A meritocratic approach where ideas are valued on impact encourages contributions from all levels, fueling innovation. Transparency Fosters Engagement and Trust – Open access to information creates a culture of engagement and trust, enabling cross-departmental insights and buy-in. Experimentation is a Core Component – Treating each project as an experiment lowers stakes, encouraging teams to test new ideas and learn from both successes and failures. Leverage Technology for Scalability – Tools like IdeaScale scale idea gathering and evaluation, making it easier to manage innovation as organizations grow. Support for Continuing Education – Encouraging ongoing learning keeps teams up-to-date and fosters a culture where growth and innovation go hand-in-hand. Adopt a Decision Journal Mindset – Reflecting on past decisions helps identify patterns, enhancing decision-making and improving innovation processes over time. Ensure Cross-Departmental Collaboration – Involving teams from different functions leads to more well-rounded solutions, leveraging diverse perspectives. Executive Sponsorship is Essential – A senior sponsor champions innovation, securing resources and direction to keep initiatives aligned with company goals. Software Over Reliance on Key Personnel – Innovation software documents and tracks ideas, embedding sustainable practices and reducing dependency on individuals.

Today I'm joined by Cal Jones, a 5th dan in Judo and one of the most qualified Judo coaches in the UK, especially Wales. In this episode, Cal Jones fills in some gaps with how to use the constraints-led approach for martial arts, specifically grappling sports. First, he walks us through a system of understanding and controlling the degrees of representative learning design. This is a tool from an academic paper he's in the process of publishing with a research journal. Then Cal walks us through task simplification and how to teach Judo throws to beginners with minimal instruction and no reps or drills. Of note here is his discussion on how you use constraints and why you should never "overconstrain." While many people think that CLA is about "just doing jabs" or "just going for arm bars," that's actually not how CLA is supposed to work because it creates unrealistic behaviors. Also of interest, Cal even reveals that he doesn't teach breakfalls -- and there are big Judo teachers who aren't ecological who also don't teach breakfalls either. He also addresses how he conducts safe warmups in a dynamic and game-like fashion. And we even sneak in a short discussion on memory in the Ecological Dynamics theory.

LBGs Fran Feyock and Doug Douds, with Historian Jared Peatman, join us to discuss the genius behind Lincoln's Gettysburg Address. This isn't a discussion of the dedication event, but, rather, an analysis of the speech itself and, I dare say, I think you'll like this one. The Gettysburg Address: Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battle-field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this. But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate—we can not consecrate—we can not hallow—this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us—that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion—that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain—that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom—and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth. LBG Jasan Hileman is the newst guide to join us on Addressing Gettysburg. Also, Joe from Peach Orchard Publishing joins us for the first time as producer/engineer. When I asked Jasan to do the show I told him what I tell every guide who comes on: you can choose from a list of listener submitted topics or you can name your own. Jasan said he wanted to do a WTF Moments epiosde. Since that title is already overused, I harkened back to the days of hair gel and parachute pants and borrowed a line from the great American philosophers C&C Music Factory for this show's title. In this episode, we cover many things that leave a lot of us scratching our heads about the Gettysburg Campaign like Mr. Stuart's Wild Ride, Ewell's "inaction" on Cemetery and Culp's Hill and more. This was yet another fun episode to record and we hope you have fun (and learn a bit) listening to it. LBG Chris Bagley joins us for his first time on the show to talk about the horse at Gettysburg, which just so happens to be the name of his book. Sometimes we might overlook just how important beasts of burden like horses and mules were for Civil War armies, but they were. As you might have guessed, just like other species, there are different breeds of horses suited for various uses. This is a good episode for horse-lovers or just anyone who wants to end their day knowing something they didn't wake up knowing.

James David Dickson, managing editor of Michigan Capitol Confidential, wrote an article about Michigan House Bill 6171, introduced in June (2022) by Representative Gary Eisen. The proposed bill reads: “Beginning with the 2022-2023 school year, the board of a school district or intermediate school district or board of directors of a public school academy shall ensure that each school operated by the board or board of directors develops or adopts and implements a policy that prohibits the use of personal cellular devices by pupils enrolled in the school during the scheduled school day when the pupil is at school.“ At school” means in a classroom, elsewhere on school property, or on a school bus or other school-related vehicle.” Per Dickson, HB 6171 shows the faults of the “There Should Be A Law” mentality. Dickson wrote a compelling piece skewering the bill - and this episode will spelunk those, and other, rabbit holes for and against banning cellphones in school, with 7 reasons to not ban cellphones and 7 reasons to ban them. REASONS NOT TO BAN CELLPHONES (1) CELLPHONES ARE PART OF LEARNING. Cellphones are inseparable from learning. By 2007, educators conceded that cell phones could play an important part in learning. Universities started using text messages to reach out to students, and a survey released by Cingular Wireless indicated that parents believed text messaging helped to improve communications with children (Loveless, 2022). (2) SCHOOL SAFETY. School safety is enhanced by cell phones. Although phone-based danger reporting or incident notification apps are not nearly as effective or reliable as purported by their enthusiastic vendors, they hold much potential for the future of personal safety. If each student's phone was viewed the same way we view smoke detectors, it would be unthinkable to remove them from our schools. (3) SINGULARITY IS INEVITABLE. Banning cellphones is an update to the 1970s argument to ban calculators. Schools are slow to infuse technology into curriculum and operating systems. Today, kids flash an electronic ticket on their phone to attend their school's sporting event. Futurist Ray Kurzwel predicts that something known as ‘singularity' will happen around the year 2045. Singularity is a merging of the human brain with computers and AI. It might be a form of neuralink. At that point, will school require students to disconnect their links during instructional time, to remove their slim 3D projection goggles, etc.? In 20 years, cellphones will be a relic of the past. (4) COMMUNICATIONS. Be it text, email, or call, the cellphone makes communication efficient and reliable. I remember a 1990 computer lab where logging in via modem speed and bringing up text-only email once or twice a day was considered cutting-edge mass communications. (5) NAVIGATION. GPS and navigation apps, such as What3Words and Waze, help students navigate the campus and have an enhanced comprehension of their surroundings. With the What3Words app, rescuers could respond to a 3 meter by 3 meter square area where the student - or the student could share their location as a gathering point for teammates getting off a bus for a competition. (6) IMPOSSIBLE TO ENFORCE. Schools are operating short-staffed and enforcing cellphone violations is not a realistic expectation of time-strapped staff or administration. BOEs won't be able to undo bad state policy. And, Policing cellphones damages school connectedness. And, what are the consequences for breaking this law? (7) PROTECTION. Cameras provide evidence, especially when deep fakes can shame or destroy a person. In 2021, an allegedly crafted fake video of Pennsylvania high school cheerleader Madi Hime vaping resulted in her being kicked off the cheerleading squad. The student's mother contacted the police, sparking an investigation, and involvement of legal counsel. As deepfake technology becomes easier and cheaper to use, these types of “alleged” claims will overwhelm school staff and local police departments. Having the option to present recorded video might help in one's defense. REASONS TO BAN CELLPHONES (1) OVER-RELIANCE ON TECHNOLOGY. Cellphones are integrated into most information-storing and retrieving aspects of our lives. Any kid attending school in the 1970s remembers that pocket calculators were prohibited in most schools. The argument against electronic calculators was that the student wouldn't be motivated to learn the intricacies of the math equations - but rather, the sequence of formulas - which were also becoming more integrated into shortcuts in the calculators. “You won't always have a calculator with you to figure out the slope of a tangent line,” teachers said. In 1984, I wore a scientific calculator watch on my wrist. The banning of cellphones today was the banning of personal learning technology devices (tablets, iPads) ten years ago. And while we think cell phones as learning tools in schools is a new idea, it's important to remember that a school in Brooklyn began distributing cell phones to students way back in 2008! (2) DISTRACTION. Social media companies employ psychologists and human behavior experts in order to hone their sites to be as addictive as possible. And everyone, not just kids, spend arguably “too many” hours a day interacting with their phones. But instead of flat out banning cellphones, they could be parked during certain instructional times, or incorporated into the teaching / learning tool process. The app ‘Poll Everywhere” can be used for students to vote on a topic. It enables most students to participate and works around the groupthink of one or two students stating an answer and the rest of class falls in line with the claim. Imagine a class topic about household chemicals. Students capture photos of chemicals found in their phones. These photos are transmitted to the classroom's online site. In the following lesson, the teacher and students discuss how to classify the chemicals - as medical supplies, detergents, fuel, discretionary, and so on. (3) BULLYING. Cyberbullying is real and is an unsavory side effect of social media. The 2019 School Crime Supplement to the National Crime Victimization Survey (National Center for Education Statistics and Bureau of Justice) indicates that, nationwide, about 16 percent of students in grades 9–12 experienced cyberbullying. (4) RECORDING INSTRUCTION - PROPRIETARY MATERIAL. Most schools purchase curriculum packages for hundreds of thousands of dollars and adhere to strict protocol for not sharing proprietary learning materials. This was tested during online instruction during the pandemic. In addition, would a school want students to record and post intruder drill protocols or other sensitive information? (5) DEEP FAKES. The integrity of instruction is at stake. A cellphone makes it exponentially easier for a student to create a deep fake of school staff saying something that would land them in hot water. Schools are way behind the curve with figuring out how to respond to deep fakes. Banning phones might limit the opportunities for deep fakes. (6) EQUITY. Equity was an argument against one-to-one electronic tablets or iPads for students. Only the affluent students would be able to afford the technology. And then, BOEs adopted 1:1 policies and funded devices for all students. Most students have 1:1 devices. It would be a similar BOE action to bring forth 1:1 cell phones. (7) SINGULARITY - As mentioned earlier, humans and AI will merge at some more invasive level - and probably within the next 20 years. We've already achieved the first few steps of singularity with our cell phones. But with singularity comes a great push to store our knowledge ‘in the cloud.' This is known as cognitive offloading and was written about in great detail in the book The Velocity of Information - Human Thinking During Chaotic Times (2022). If we become out-of-balance dependent on going to our phone as the arbiter for each decision in our life, we are at risk for being unable to figure things out if the Internet fails - perhaps due to hacking, solar flare, EMP, etc. Counter this by integrating phones with real-world applications. Use the GPS on the phone for a scavenger hunt in the authentic environment of a park or school grounds. SOURCES FOR THIS BLOG POST. Loveless, B. (2022).

In this episode, I speak with Chris Prefontaine a 3-time best-selling author of Real Estate on Your Terms, The New Rules of Real Estate Investing, and Moneeka Sawyer's Real Estate Investing for Women. He's also the Founder and CEO of SmartRealEstateCoach.com and host of the Smart Real Estate Coach Podcast. Chris has been in real estate for almost 30 years. His experience ranges from constructing new homes in the ‘90s and owning a Realty Executive Franchise to running his own investments (commercial & residential) and coaching clients throughout North America. Today, Chris runs his own buying and selling business with his family team, which purchases 2-5 properties monthly, so they're in the trenches every single week. They also help their Associates and students do the exact same thing all across North America, working together on another 10-15 properties every month. Having been through several real estate cycles, Chris understands the challenges of this business and helps students navigate the constantly changing real estate waters. He talks with us about his early years in real estate and what it was like for him living through the market crash. Chris discusses why new entrepreneurs should seek a mentor and how finding the right mentor can be detrimental when first getting started in real estate.

Then I got to thinking, how could I leverage that into helping me build a career. I said early on when I started selling real estate that I wanted to be the place where everyone came for information and I would sell real estate along the way. Well so far that has worked out really well, as I close in on 1 billion in real estate sold, I am proud to announce that I am just getting started. We are excited to roll forward to next year and the next and the next by providing the value people look for, by giving them information and helping them out when they need it, and selling a little real estate along the way. Let's learn together, yes together I want to learn from you as well.
