Teaching critical thinking through blended learning powered by AI with Jessica Kennedy White

In this video, I chat with Jessica Kennedy White, an AI EdTech expert and PhD researcher, about how AI is transforming classrooms to foster critical thinking and metacognition. We explore the role of adaptive learning tools like Area9 Rhapsode™ and their impact on breaking traditional testing mindsets. Jessica shares real-world examples, such as how blended learning and dialog can empower teachers and students to navigate learning at their own pace. Whether you're an educator or a tech enthusiast, this discussion is packed with insights into the future of education.

Please drop your number one takeaway or any questions in the comments below.

Thanks for watching, and stay awesome!
