Episode 263 - Finding Our Hair in a Box (S07E05)

Welcome back to a new episode of Rebel Teacher Alliance! This week, John Meehan officially joins as our co-host and we get practical about teaching in the age of AI. We unpack why “if AI can do the task, fix the task,” swap in EMC2 protocols that force real thinking, and show how QFT on vertical whiteboards sharpens research questions. Plus Tier List warm-ups, Micro Lab and Big Picture Pinpoint in action, four common school stances on AI, IB context, and in “Whatcha been playin’…?” we hit Carcassonne (Hills & Sheep), Jaws of the Lion, and Zombie Kids Junior. Also: new-dad life and a very cold house.Join @hofmannedu.bsky.social, @jedijamie.bsky.social and @meehanedu.bsky.social by subscribing to our podcast and rating and reviewing us on Apple Podcasts!
