What's the Big Idea?
Back to the Future of Learning in the AI Era with Michael Wagner
In which Dan chats with Michael Wagner, Professor and Department Head of Digital Media at the Antoinette Westphal College of Media Arts & Design at Drexel University, about the implications for AI in education.
Back in July Michael posted a piece to his Substack with the provocative title, "The End of Cheating as We Know It." He posits that, yes, AI has the power to disrupt everything in education, but, ironically, it has also created the conditions for ancient practices of teaching and learning to ascend, methods like socratic and oral examination, as well as design cycle iteration.
