Summary

I am always grateful to have time to chat with Darryl Toerien about school libraries, FOSIL and inquiry. Today, we start to explore the need to clarify the purpose of education, especially in relation to the growing concern about adopting new technologies, including AI, in our schools. I personally find it very helpful to have these learning conversations. To be able to voice my thoughts and ideas certainly helps me clarify my understanding. I hope you learn from this conversation too… * ACCESS Article -- AI: The perfect storm that rages against the evolving dynamism through which we form ourselves as human beings ( Darryl Toerien , 2025). * Anne Lutz Fernandez -- Resisting AI Mania in Schools - Part I (2025a), Part II (2025b), and Part III (2025c). * Sarah Winnicki -- I would be so ashamed to use generative AI, here’s why (2026). * Jenny Toerien -- Blanchelande College 2026 | AI and Academic Integrity (Parent Presentation) .
