Listen "Learning in the Digital Age: Transparency, Trust, and Technology in Schools with Rich Nye"
Episode Synopsis
Rich Nye (Senior Advisor of Education to Governor Cox) joins Utah's First Lady, Abby Cox, to talk about how his education experience growing up helped shape his passion for pursuing education as a career, the profound impact that teachers can have on students and their academic goals, and how the Information Age is evolving education at a quicker rate than we could have expected.
Then we talk about how transparency in the classroom is rebuilding trust between educators and parents, different ways parents can become better partners with educators to help support the needs of our children, as well as the positive research we see from schools that have placed restrictions on smartphone use in the classroom to improve academic outcome.
Lastly, we dive into how Artificial Intelligence can safely and effectively be used in the classroom to help promote a positive learning ecosystem for the student without replacing the role of the teacher.
