| 6/21/26 |  Your AI questions answered; with Bex Rose and Principal Matt Simeon | Last time we spoke with AI consultant to schools, Bex Rose, the feedback was running hot! From people who wanted to know about the AI tutor she created for her daughter, to people interested in more information about how AI is being used in schools already ..and those who expressed very real concern about the impact digital technology has on brain development and learning and human relationships.In this episode, we discuss that feedback with Bex and we are also joined by Papamoa Primary Principal Matt Simeon to talk about how the school has been an early adopter of using AI with staff. It is another discussion which is sure to raise more debate around the merits and concerns around the best use of AI. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information. | — | ||||||
| 6/14/26 |  Resilience, Manners and Emotional Regulation with Cara Zelas | Cara Zelas is a U.S-based early childhood educator who speaks at conferences and in classrooms around the world about her work with 'Big World of Little Dude'. She shares how parents can build essential life skills at home, including resilience, manners, and emotional regulation. She also unpacks how technology is currently used in classrooms and why she believes digital apps should never replace face-to-face interaction. This is NOT a discussion to try and make parents feel guilty about screen-time or devices. No-one here is pretending we are perfect parents! What it IS is a discussion around bringing in human connection skills that set kids up for the world in which they will operate with artificial intelligence very much embedded in their lives.
