ACERCA DE ESTE EPISODIO
In this episode of Thinking Through…, Dr. Allison Lester sits down with Ken Shelton to unpack the conversation around AI and cheating and why it often misses the point. Together, they explore what teachers are really holding right now: fear, fatigue, pressure, and the weight of constant “innovation” demands.
Ken challenges the framing of cheating as the core problem and invites a deeper look at power, assessment, and control in education. They talk about burnout, culture-building, and what it means to center humans in the loop when AI enters classrooms. The episode closes with a shift from compliance to curiosity, asking how educators can design learning that protects student voice, honors teacher expertise, and uses AI as a support rather than a shortcut.
