Welcome to 'A Vision for Learning', on the BE Podcast Network. This is the podcast that ventures deep into the mind-blowing realm of augmented reality and virtual reality in education! If you're interested in redesigning the future of education, you've come to the right place. 


I am your host, Transformative Principal Jethro Jones, founder of the BE Podcast Network, and educational ruckus maker. I've been working to change education for my whole career, ever since I started blogging with my students in the early 2000's. 


In this series, we don't just scratch the surface - we dive headfirst into the groundbreaking potential of devices like the Apple Vision Pro. We'll explore how they're revolutionizing both individual and classroom learning experiences.


And the journey doesn't stop there! Alongside a broad exploration of the AR/VR landscape, we delve into specific applications in the sector of learning and education.


From immersive virtual excursions that transport students from their classrooms to other continents, to engaging interactions with anatomical structures for medical students, each episode invites you into a world where education is transformed by technology. But this isn't just about technology for technology's sake. This is about redesigning our education system to be adaptive and personalized for our students and the future they are growing up in.


The excitement builds as we bring into the conversation data from the front lines of this educational revolution. You'll hear from founders, innovative developers, passionate educators - they all take center stage as we discuss the diverse use cases, the challenges, the victories, and the future of Apple Vision Pro and AR/VR in schools.


Together, we'll uncover the tremendous power of AR/VR as we reimagine the future of education together.

Hosted by educator and researcher Eli Davis, Artificial Intelligence: Real Talk cuts through the hype to explore how these tools are actually being used in schools. This isn't a theoretical discussion about the future; it's grounded in the present reality of classrooms. Each episode features conversations with the teachers, specialists, and leaders who are integrating AI into their daily practice. You'll hear honest stories about what works, what doesn't, and the nuanced challenges that come with new technology. The focus is on practical application-how AI can serve as a collaborative thought partner to enhance teaching, not replace it. Davis guides discussions toward critical questions of equity, bias, and accessibility, ensuring the dialogue centers on improving outcomes for every student. This podcast provides a necessary space for educators to share their on-the-ground experiences, offering listeners a clearer understanding of both the potential and the pitfalls.
