In this exciting first episode of the new year, Alex sits down once again with Dan Fitzpatrick—author of The AI Classroom and now Infinite Education. Dan reveals how his latest book moves beyond quick classroom tips into a broader four-step strategic framework for schools: Scope, Shape, Influence, and Alignment. Whether you’re a classroom teacher or a head teacher in search of big-picture thinking, Dan’s practical advice and visionary insights will inspire you to question conventional methods and design new ones that meet the demands of an AI-driven world.

In this conversation, you’ll learn about:
• Why “infinite education” means breaking free of linear, test-centric mindsets
• How AI can streamline day-to-day tasks yet open doors to deeper innovation
• Strategies for leaders to bring everyone on board—from staff to students
• The difference between having a plan and actually leading change
• Embracing risk and “failure” as essential parts of real transformation

Dan also shares the importance of speculative thinking, encouraging educators to imagine what AI-infused classrooms could look like in 5, 10, or even 15 years. If you’re eager to move beyond traditional systems and empower your school to adapt, grow, and thrive, you won’t want to miss this episode.
