AI isn’t a replacement for educators; it’s a tool to amplify the work they do. In this episode of Outside the Mainstream, I chat with Dr. Geri Gillespy, an experienced educator, innovator, and co-founder of Guardrailz, a COPPA-certified AI platform for education. Dr. Gillespy shares her inspiring journey, from overcoming learning challenges as a student to becoming a leader in educational technology and innovation. We explore how AI can be used to enhance teaching and learning, address concerns about academic integrity, and prepare students for a workforce that increasingly demands AI literacy.
