    Exploring the Impact of AI in Education with Code.org’s Micah Kennedy (Part Two)

    In the second part of this insightful conversation, Lisa continues her discussion with Micah Kennedy, a professional learning manager at Code.org, exploring the evolving role of teachers as artificial intelligence (AI) becomes increasingly integrated into the classroom. Micah shares their perspective on how AI can serve as a valuable co-planner and teaching assistant, alleviating the administrative burdens that often consume a significant portion of a teacher's time. The episode also addresses the complex issue of cheating and plagiarism in the age of AI, with Micah emphasizing the importance of teaching students how to use these tools responsibly and ethically, rather than relying solely on detection technologies that can be unreliable. Looking towards the future, Micah expresses excitement about the potential for assessment practices to evolve, moving away from traditional standardized tests and towards more project-based, collaborative, and critical-thinking-focused evaluations. Micah commits to incorporating these transformative approaches into the professional learning resources developed by Code.org, empowering educators to embrace the opportunities presented by AI. Listeners are encouraged to continue the conversation by reaching out to host Lisa Andrew, as she aims to amplify the perspectives and experiences of those navigating the complex and rapidly changing landscape of education in the age of artificial intelligence.
