Artificial intelligence has made its way into the classroom—bringing excitement, confusion, and big questions about the future of learning. In this month’s episode of the Harvard Data Science Review Podcast, we explore how AI is transforming education with guests Chad Dorsey, president and CEO of the Concord Consortium, and Victor Lee, associate professor at the Stanford Graduate School of Education. Together, they discuss how teachers and students are using AI as a creative learning partner, the myths around AI-driven “cheating,” and how data literacy can empower the next generation. The conversation also dives into critical issues of equity, curiosity, and the evolving role of educators and parents in an AI-powered world—asking what it truly means to build a more human-centered future for learning.
Tune in for an honest, hopeful look at the future of education and what it means to build a smarter, more human-centered classroom.
