Happy 5th Anniversary to AI in Education

Unbelievably, it's our 5th Anniversary (AI-nniversary?) and to mark the milestone of an AI podcast that's had more pivots than a robot's legs, and more chat than a chatbot, we've pulled together some of the top episodes from the 108 episodes of the podcast so far, and got the band back together (regretfully, we were unable to persuade Beth Worral, who co-hosted in 2022-2023, to come back for our party podcast - she'd reached escape velocity), so you'll hear Dan, Ray and Lee reminiscing like old men in a shed. Great Guests & Top Episodes Our very first guest - Microsoft's Troy Waller in AI for Accessibility in 2019 Our most listened episode from 2019 and very first external guest - the brilliant Dr David Kellerman in Using AI to personalise learning at UNSW Sydney Our top 2020 episode was A Brief History of AI, which looked backin to the human obsession with creating artificial replicas of themselves. When did it start, who started it, what is the AI winter and how did it accelerate so quickly in the last 10 years. (And even faster in the last 4 years since?) In 2021, another great guest topped our episode charts, with Feel the force: Emerge to the future with Sly Lee as Sly talked about his work around VR and AR and the mergeing of physical and virtual worlds For 2022, it was the Christmas edition that hit the heights, with all four co-hosts - Beth, Lee, Dan & Ray - together for the quizzically named Christmas, Infinite Monkeys and everything By 2023, we were back on solid pedagogy again, with the episode AI - The fuel that drives insight in K12 with Travis Smith (the kind of title a marketing manager would love?) And, although we've not yet reached the end of 2024 and we've got some great episodes ahead, the top episode this far is University of Sydney and the future of assessment with Danny Liu and Adam Bridgman We also had fond memories of: The AI in Popular Culture episode from 2020 Martin O'Sullivan's tales from Turing House School in From AI Detectors to Heartwarming Help: Two Tales of AI in a school Elle Graham (aka Woodes) in Music, Creativity and Minecraft with Woodes Practical lessons from chatbot land with The Search for the Education Holy Grail in NSW, with the stories shared by Dan Hart and Michelle Michael
