Episode Synopsis

In this special episode of the Enabling Learning Podcast, we celebrate the publication of our chapter, “AI-Guided Professional Development: A Vygotskian Approach for Teachers in Multilingual Classrooms,” co-authored with Dr. Uvaldina Janicek and featured in the new volume Harnessing AI’s Potential to Support Student Success and Teaching Excellence (IGI Global, 2025).We discuss the chapter’s core ideas, including how AI (when used ethically and purposefully) can provide scaffolds that support bilingual and ESL teacher development. From our AI tutor Verónica to scenario-based training and just-in-time feedback, this conversation reflects on the potential of AI to enhance (not replace) human-centered education.Read the blog post that inspired this episode: A New Chapter: AI-Guided Teacher Support
