    Carole Basile on Why Schools Have to Be Redesigned, Not Just Re-tooled

    Everyone wants a checklist for AI in schools. Carole Basile thinks that's  the wrong instinct — because the real problem isn't the technology, it's the 19th-century structure we're dropping it into. Dr. Carole Basile is Dean of ASU's Mary Lou Fulton College for Teaching and Learning Innovation, where she's spent nearly a decade rebuilding the education workforce around teams of educators instead of one teacher alone with 25 kids. Before higher ed, she spent over a decade in the corporate world — and that organizational lens runs through everything here. In this episode:  Why "embracing AI" at ASU means building human relationships, not replacing themThe metacognitive data we've never had before — and the ethical obligation that comes with seeing itWhy there's no teacher shortage, only a shortage of people who'll do an impossible job"Principled innovation": the what-should-we-build framework ASU started in 2016, before the AI waveWhy the AI-cheating panic is a signal to redesign assessments, not police studentsThe curriculum-company business model AI is quietly threatening — and the "Spotify moment" for textbooksUsing AI for possibility thinking — expanding what a team can imagine, not handing over the answersWhy K-12 keeps modeling itself on universities instead of on how the world actually worksDr. Carole Basile — Mary Lou Fulton College for Teaching and Learning Innovation, Arizona State University: https://education.asu.edu aiEDU: The AI Education Project aiEDU.orglinkedin.com/company/aiedu/

    Shortcuts, Skeptics, and What Schools Keep Getting Backwards

    Andy Rotherham has spent 25 years advising the education sector — co-founding Bellwether, serving in the Clinton administration and on the Virginia Board of Education, and writing Eduwonk. He's also clear about something that's become unfashionable to say plainly: he's a skeptic of how AI will be used in schools, even as he takes the technology dead seriously. That distinction runs through this whole conversation with Alex. They sit with the hard tensions instead of resolving them too quickly. Why is the most valuable thing a student can do still "learn something about something"? Why does Andy now think telling his kids to learn to code may have been wrong and what does that uncertainty mean for everyone else? What happens to a generation that got social media, a year of closed schools, an AI-disrupted job market, and now AI companions that behave like the "perfect friend"? And what's his real worry about schools: not that AI replaces teachers, but that we hand kids the shortcuts before they ever learn to do the work the right way. It's a measured, occasionally contrarian conversation for anyone trying to think clearly past the hype.

    The Case for Mentorship in an AI World — Sarah Morgenthau & Michael Barrett

    Sarah Morgenthau runs the "I Have A Dream" Foundation; Michael Barrett has helped govern it from the Board while serving as a trustee at the University of Pennsylvania. Between them they make a grounded case: the technology is changing fast, but the thing that actually improves a kid's life hasn't changed at all: a long-term relationship with someone who keeps showing up. Across the conversation they get specific about what that looks like in practice: wraparound services in Title I schools, AI Dream Labs that put real hardware in students' hands, a mock interview that ended in tears, and an honest reckoning with whether "go to college" is still the right advice. The throughline is a refusal to accept that a kid's circumstances should decide their future — and a 45-year bet that long-term relationships are what change it.  "I Have A Dream" Foundation https://www.ihaveadreamfoundation.org aiEDU: The AI Education Project aiEDU.orglinkedin.com/company/aiedu/

    The Jagged Edge: Why Working With AI Is the New Human Skill

    Wim Sweldens has watched technology remake itself for forty years — Bell Labs, mobile networks, and now Kiswe, the interactive live-streaming company he co-founded. The last time he felt anything like this moment was 1991, when a colleague told him "everything that's not on the internet doesn't exist." His answer to this one is AIQ: a way of measuring not how smart AI is, but how well humans navigate its jagged edge — the boundary where a model brilliant at one task fails absurdly at a nearly identical one. The unsettling part: that edge moves daily, which means your AIQ falls every day you don't work at it. Alex and Wim trace what that means for how we learn and work: the math teacher (Wim's father) who let students bring calculators in exchange for a harder exam, the engineers at Kiswe who now throw away code because the English specification is the source of truth, the test agent that cheated by reading the code it was supposed to test, and why "the point of a teacher is not to transfer knowledge, but to transfer understanding.” Wim Sweldens is co-founder of Kiswe: https://www.kiswe.com Wim's writing on AIQ: https://substack.com/@wimsweldens  aiEDU: The AI Education Project aiEDU.orglinkedin.com/company/aiedu/

    Change Management as a Learning Problem (with Jennifer Husbands)

    Two decades of working on school improvement — at High Tech High, at Chicago Public Schools, at the Gates Foundation, and now through her own consulting practice — have left Jennifer Husbands with a fairly direct view of why AI adoption in schools is going the way it's going. The technology isn't the problem. The problem is that the US invests less in teacher learning time than almost any peer system, and you cannot ask people to change their behavior in a setting that gives them no room to learn. In this conversation she lays out what she's hearing from funders right now (humility, anxiety, and a quiet retrenchment from K-12 that she thinks is happening at the worst possible moment), why she believes the district is the only unit of change that actually scales, what role coaching and teacher-to-teacher networks have to play, and why she keeps coming back to the idea that AI is a tool, not a solution. Alex also opens the episode by walking her through a live vibe coding demo — a useful prelude to the broader conversation about how fast the underlying technology is now moving. aiEDU: The AI Education Project aiEDU.orglinkedin.com/company/aiedu/

    How can we reinvent public education for the AI era? With Robin Lake

    Robin Lake has been studying public education from the systems level for more than thirty years. Her diagnosis is sharper than most: we built a school system for an average student who doesn't exist, and we keep placing kids in special education because general classrooms have run out of tools to support them. This conversation works through what CRPE has been finding in its AI research — the widening gap between suburban and rural/urban districts on AI literacy, why most early-adopter schools are still "tinkering," and the "wicked opportunities" the field is underplaying — and then turns into something rarer: a live demo, with Robin in the role of designer, building a tool she wishes had existed when her own twice-exceptional son was in school. It's also the most honest conversation we've had on the show about what schools should actually be asking of ed tech, versus what ed tech keeps trying to sell them. Robin Lake directs the Center on Reinventing Public Education (CRPE) and writes the Think Forward Substack. crpe.org aiEDU: The AI Education Project aiEDU.orglinkedin.com/company/aiedu/

    We're Funding the Wrong Side of AI in Education — with Bree & Babak

    In 2017, before ChatGPT existed, a 180,000-student district in Georgia decided to build the first AI-ready high school in the country. Babak Mostaghimi was one of the people who built it. Bree Dusseault, at Center on Reinventing Public Education/The Strategic Education Research Partnership, was one of the people who later studied what made it possible — and what stops most other systems from following. This conversation, recorded at CRPE's Think Forward Fellowship, lives at the intersection of those two views. Bree's research keeps surfacing the same five conditions: leadership longevity, a community-rooted vision, deliberate talent flows, integration across departments — and one resource almost no one is funding, which is time for adults to think. Babak's lived answer, after eight years inside the work, is the sharper version of the same idea: center the people and the problems they're trying to solve, not the tool of the moment.  What follows is less about which AI tools to pilot and more about the architecture underneath — a "grammar of learning" rather than a grammar of schooling, parents who've played with the tools before they form opinions about them, and a kindergarten teacher whose target is 2035, not next September. aiEDU: The AI Education Project aiEDU.orglinkedin.com/company/aiedu/

    What Is STEM Education Actually For? — with Dr. Patrice Johnson of Project Scientist

    "It's not that girls aren't good at STEM. It's the confidence around 'can I do STEM?'" That's Dr. Patrice Johnson, and her quiet challenge to the dominant frame of STEM education — that the gap is technical when it's actually cultural — is the throughline of this conversation. She runs Project Scientist, a national nonprofit that puts girls into hands-on STEM and runs the Elevated Institute — a teacher-training arm built around the principles that make their own programs work: joy as a pedagogical constant, confidence (not skill) as the real STEM gap, women mentors for every cohort. We also get into her own story (city council in her Michigan hometown at 22), what overwhelmed schools actually need from outside partners, and what Back to the Future and Iron Heart do to children's mental image of who gets to be a scientist. Dr. Patrice Johnson is CEO of Project Scientist. projectscientist.org. aiEDU: The AI Education Project aiEDU.orglinkedin.com/company/aiedu/
