Listen "Beyond the Hype: AI, Disability, and Equity in Education"
Episode Synopsis
In this podcast, we tackle a pressing and timely issue: the growing role of AI in education. With Mary Rice, Joaquin Arguello, and Richard Carter Jr., I explore the potential benefits and hidden risks of AI technologies. Can AI help address long-standing inequities faced by students with disabilities and other marginalized learners—or could it deepen existing disparities? We examine questions of transparency, standardization, and the evolving relationship between AI, teachers, and students. Beyond critique, we also imagine what AI could be: a tool for transforming schools into more equitable, just, and inclusive learning spaces.TRANSCRIPT OF THE EPISODE Resources Let’s CHAT About Artificial Intelligence for Students With Disabilities: A Systematic Literature Review and Meta-AnalysisThe Use of Artificial Intelligence with Students with Identified Disabilities: A Systematic Review with Critique
