AI Tutors? Outdoor Classrooms? The Future of Learning in Pittsburgh {SPONSORED}
Episode Description: On this bonus sponsored episode by the Grable Foundation, we explore how learning is evolving in Pittsburgh and what it could look like in the years ahead. When you picture local schools 10 years from now, do you see students glued to tablets and receiving lessons from AI tutors, or do you imagine them building solar-powered backpacks in outdoor classrooms? A new report is imagining what learning could look like here by 2036 and whether we should be excited…or a little freaked out. Jason Swanson, Director of Strategic Foresight at KnowledgeWorks, and Taylor Samstang, Executive Director at Remake Learning, join Executive Producer Mallory Falk to break down the biggest trends shaping the future of education, how you can help shape what comes next, and and why all of this matters even if you don't have kids.
