    🔌 Teachers as Builders: Helping Teachers Quickly Create Solutions for Their Classrooms

    In this week of Ed3: Unplugged, Serj Hunt and Scott Meyer discuss the role of AI in education and how it can help teachers become builders. We explore the four identities of a teacher, beginning with a reporter who regurgitates information and ending with a role model who competes with AI-powered chatbots that can teach students on their own. We then dive into tools for teachers to use AI to improve their classroom instruction. The first is Nolej.AI, which transcribes and summarizes classroom lectures, creating flashcards and definitions for students to review. The second, Save All AI, enables teachers to create and share flashcards on any subject with their students. Then we look at how AI could take note-taking to the next level, allowing students to capture ideas and conversations using microphones, which can then be shared and expanded upon. Ultimately, AI in the classroom can free up time for teachers to focus on the humanizing aspects of education, including coaching, social-emotional learning, and career development. Overall, this conversation provides insight into how AI can be used as a tool for teachers to enhance their instruction, and highlights the importance of bringing humanity back into the classroom. *** Subscribe for the best stuff from Ed3 and links to all the tools we mention: https://www.ed3.gg/ Watch the episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@ed3gg Chapters of the episode: (0:00) Introduction (0:30) Discussion of the role of AI in education (2:00) The different stages of teacher identity (4:00) The importance of teachers becoming lifelong learners (5:30) Tools for teachers, including Save All and Knowledge AI (8:00) Bringing humanity into the classroom (10:00) Conclusion

    🔌 The Fractional Education Future: Bounty-based education, Upskilling as an Olympic Sport, Hackathon Build Results, and More

    According to McKinsey, nearly 40% of Americans identify as independent workers, up from just 27% seven years ago. In the future, more of the labor market will focus on fractionalized small bounties that freelancers can pick up and complete. This week's episode of Ed3: Unplugged discusses the future of work and education, focusing on fractional talent and fractional talent marketplaces. Serj Hunt and Scott Meyer discuss how project-based learning can help people learn skills and earn money by doing small bounties. They also introduce a product they built this week for Ben's Bites' Hackathon, using chatbots to generate project briefs and post bounties on talent marketplaces. Ultimately, fractional work and fractional education can benefit the economy, but metrics and assessments must be developed to prove their effectiveness. Re-skilling is now an Olympic sport, and workers will need to learn new skills every four years. This opens up new potential for learning and working people, as long as they are open to change.

    🔌 Attribution in the AI Age: Giving Teachers Credit, Mapping Projects to Jobs, Intelligent Cooperation and More

    This lively Ed3: Unplugged discussion explores the concepts of attribution in an age when answers are everywhere. Serj Hunt joins Scott Meyer to look at how teachers could train AI models and sell those models to other teachers. We talk about project-based learning and how to map those efforts to jobs. Then, we look at how technology might close the loop on identifying what to learn and getting credit for that learning. Serj shares the concept of intelligent cooperation, where an individual can share a problem or job to be done. Then an AI can map the steps to get there. This model could solve a big problem in the world of fractional work, which is creating the scope for bounty workers. This episode is a great exploration of the challenges that face education in the AI Age and the potential to connect learners with opportunities.

    🔌 What Schools Should Teach: Algorithmic Thinking, Adaptability, Agency, and More

    What skills are needed for the future? In this Ed3: Unplugged, Serj Hunt argues it is a moving target, but key skills like adaptability and agency will be needed regardless of technological change. Scott Meyer and Hunt discuss algorithmic thinking and compare it to other frameworks like systems thinking. It is possible that the ability to communicate with machines will (or is) a key skill. It will become more important as we move towards the Age of Intelligence, where we must gather and interpret data, even if we never have perfect data. This short, focused discussion is a great way to think about the future of learning. Hope you enjoy it!
