About the Episode

About The Episode:

In this thought-provoking episode of Generation AI, hosts Dr. JC Bonilla and Ardis Kadiu welcome special guest Michael McGetrick, a veteran educator and creative technologist, to explore how AI is transforming teaching and learning. They discuss the urgent question facing educators today: what is AI doing to student learning? The conversation examines how AI is exposing existing cracks in educational systems rather than breaking them, highlighting a "relevance crisis" rather than a "cheating crisis." From redesigning assessment methods to understanding how AI enhances skill-based learning, the hosts share research findings and personal experiences about the real impact of tools like ChatGPT in education, and how students and educators can adapt to this new reality that's already here.
