Is AI a force for good or a threat to us all? Could it be both? Patrick Hickey (@aiteachingguru) joins the podcast to share his expertise and experience with AI in education. It's been the biggest talking point in tech for the last few years, and school, students and teachers are not immune. What do we need to know to make AI our ally, rather than our enemy? How do we enable our students to use it to enhance their learning, rather than bypassing it? We ask Patrick all of these questions, and more.Follow us @thatllteachyoupodcast on Instagram and Tiktok, and please don't forget to rate and review!Support us as we hike the Dublin Mountain Challenge for Barretstown on 25th May!
