    Ep106- Infinite Education- Dan Fitzpatrick

    In this episode, Myself and Matthew sit down with Dan Fitzpatrick, The AI educator and author, to dive into how artificial intelligence is transforming education. Dan shares his inspiring journey from being a traditional teacher to becoming a passionate advocate for using AI in the classroom. His mission really resonates with me—helping all of us, whether we’re educators, parents, or lifelong learners, prepare for a future that’s evolving at lightning speed. We explore the concept of "infinite education," a mindset shift that focuses on lifelong learning and adaptability instead of rigid, one-size-fits-all systems. Dan explains how this approach can empower both students and educators to embrace creativity, tackle challenges, and welcome innovation with open arms. One of my favorite moments is when Dan shares a fable about a frog and a princess—it’s such a fun yet powerful way to think about how we often resist change, even when it’s full of potential. We also dive into practical strategies for using AI tools effectively while fostering a sense of community and agency for teachers. As we wrap up, I can’t help but reflect on how fast AI technology is advancing and what it means for the future of learning. This conversation has left me feeling inspired, and I hope it does the same for you!
