When considering AI tools for the classroom, schools need to focus on those that genuinely support learning, keep students safe, and avoid shortcuts that undermine academic growth.
In this episode of the EdTech Insiders podcast, Lincoln Learning’s Dr. Rachel Book and Charlie Thayer join the conversation to explore what educational AI should look like in real classrooms. Together, they unpack the differences between generic AI tools and solutions purpose‑built for education, share realistic and responsible classroom use cases, and discuss how AI can extend teacher capacity without replacing meaningful instruction.
If you’re navigating how AI fits into teaching and learning, this thoughtful, educator‑focused conversation offers clarity and perspective grounded in real classroom needs.
