Teachlab Presents: The Homework Machine
Most education technologies are invited into schools. Generative AI crashed the party. We've spoken to more than 90 teachers and 30 students about the impact of AI on K12 education. We're excited to share their stories and insights in a mini series we're calling "The Homework Machine".
Teachlab is a podcast that investigates the art and craft of teaching. Hosted by Justin Reich, MIT Professor and director of the MIT Teaching Systems Lab.
