This week we bring you a conversation with the co-author of a book on student disengagement in school, Rebecca Winthrop, who is also researching the impact of AI on education. The episode is by one of Future U’s producers, Jeff Young, from his new podcast, Learning Curve. ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/future-u-podcast-the-pulse-of-higher-ed-1134204/episodes/the-impact-of-ai-on-student-motivation/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/future-u-podcast-the-pulse-of-higher-ed-1134204/the-impact-of-ai-on-student-motivation.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
