## Resource

In this episode, I chat with Dr. Gene Kerns, Chief Academic Officer at Renaissance, about instructional coherence and how AI can help connect the assessment, curriculum, and practice tools that too often live in separate places. You'll also hear why having more data isn't the same as having useful data, what to look for when evaluating an AI-powered tool, and how Renaissance Intelligence aims to make personalized learning doable at scale while keeping teachers at the center. If you want to rethink how your tools and data work together so you can spend less time wrangling reports and more time with students, this episode has you covered!
