Edufuturists #272 Contextualise Your AI with Matthew Wemyss

In this episode, we chat with 2024 Edufuturists' AI Pioneer of the Year, Matthew Wemyss, about the sensible integration of AI in education, the importance of community building, and the challenges of personalisation and equity in learning. Matthew shares his journey in education, his role in a British overseas school in Romania, and how he utilises AI tools like ChatGPT to enhance teaching strategies and support teachers. The conversation also touches on the need for investment in educational technology to ensure all students have access to learning resources, particularly in the wake of the digital divide exacerbated by the pandemic. In this conversation, we explore the intersection of AI and education, discussing the need for better partnerships between tech companies and schools, the necessity of reflective practices for educators and the potential of AI to empower students in their learning journeys.
