    Career Readiness in the Age of AI: Templates, Hiring Bots, and Why Your Students Need a Side Door (May 2026)

    If your job can be described with a template, a machine is coming for it. Christopher Penn is back with Kelly Booz and Sari Beth Rosenberg for a conversation about what career readiness actually looks like in 2026 — and the answer is not what most schools are teaching. Chris walks through Stanford's latest data on AI adoption in schools worldwide (spoiler: Indonesia is at 95%), shows which job fields are shrinking and which ones AI can't touch, and drops a stat that should make every educator pause: 60% of education tasks can be consumed by AI. Then he flips the script and shows how students can use deep research tools to run their own job searches, prep for interviews — including hostile ones — and even build companies from their parents' basement with agentic AI. But first: the internet confidently roasted a real Monet thinking it was AI, Elon lost a $134 billion lawsuit in less time than a lunch period, 10% of teens say almost all their schoolwork is AI, someone hacked Canvas during finals week, and Google announced you can now deepfake yourself. It's May. Sari Beth brings the teacher perspective throughout — her students don't want robot teachers, they want human connection, and they're already interrogating what the point of the classroom actually is. That might be the most important thing in this episode. 🎓 Earn free PD credit for this session: https://sharemylesson.com/webinars/ai-educator-brain-career-readiness-students-future-work  📚 Join Share My Lesson (free): https://sharemylesson.com 🔗 Resources mentioned: Stanford Human AI Report Index (April 2026): https://sharemylesson.com/webinars/ai-educator-brain-career-readiness-students-future-work Indeed.com job demand data: https://sharemylesson.com/webinars/ai-educator-brain-career-readiness-students-future-work Chris's six-part job search prompt: https://sharemylesson.com/webinars/ai-educator-brain-career-readiness-students-future-work Chris's newsletter series on AI job searching: https://almosttimely.substack.com/p/almost-timely-news-how-to-find-aChapters:00:00 Show Intro and Hosts01:06 Webinar Format and PD Credit02:12 Welcome and Session Setup03:53 Chat Prompts and Agenda05:52 AI Educator News Update06:42 Monet Mistaken for AI07:27 Musk Lawsuit and Teen AI Use08:53 Deepfake Avatars and Brain Health AI11:33 Canvas Hack and Cybersecurity Reality13:27 Career Readiness Concerns from Educators15:07 Stanford Data and K-12 Standards18:46 Jobs Data and AI Exposure24:03 Templates Make Work Automatable26:17 What Humans Do Best in Class29:35 Why School Still Looks Like a Factory31:11 Teaching Deepfake Detection Like Spies33:00 Deepfakes and Media Trust33:47 Teach AI Early34:56 Screen Native Students35:38 AI Proof Assessments37:13 Where Jobs Are Now38:32 Deep Research Job Search40:46 Interview Prep with AI46:01 Networking Side Door49:30 Entrepreneurship with Agents53:10 What Skills Stay Human54:29 Sandboxing AI Agents58:33 Classroom AI Honor Codes01:00:36 AI Amplifies Everything01:01:31 Wrap Up and Next Steps Hosts: Kelly Booz & Sari Beth Rosenberg Guest: Christopher Penn From: Share My Lesson at the American Federation of Teachers

    From Information Overload to Instruction (with NotebookLM)

    It's our two-year birthday and we're celebrating the only way we know how — by spiraling into AI chaos. Kelly Booz and Sari Beth Rosenberg are joined by returning favorite Christopher Penn for a deep dive into Google's NotebookLM, the tool that lets you upload your own data and turn it into slide decks, podcasts, videos, quizzes, flashcards, and infographics in 82 languages. Chris demos the whole thing live using a Common Core–aligned sixth grade math textbook he built with AI — Minecraft themed, obviously. But first: Is that AI image of the president a doctor or Jesus? (Spoiler: every student in Sari Beth's class had thoughts.) We break down AI-generated propaganda videos coming out of Iran, talk about what tools are making them, and why watermarking matters. Then it's time for our SNL Weekend Update–style AI Educator News Update — Disney's Olaf robot face-plants, ChatGPT starts selling ads, Boston requires AI proficiency to graduate, a school AI tool generates wildly inappropriate images for a fourth grader, NYC tries to open an AI high school before it's even approved, and Anthropic builds a model so good at hacking they won't release it. Plus: Chris did his taxes with AI, agentic tools are 100x-ing productivity, and we have more webinar ideas than we know what to do with. Happy birthday to us.
