AI in Schools: What Teachers, Parents and Students Should Know

AI is changing the way students learn—but what does that really look like in the classroom? In this episode, we chat with L.A. County and California Teacher of the Year, Casey Cuny, and his son, Landon Cuny, a Valencia High School graduate, to get both the educator/parent and student/child perspective. Casey shares how AI can be a game-changer for teachers across all subjects including math and culinary arts, while Landon talks about how he uses it as a thought partner for everything from schoolwork projects to daily life…including picking out what he should wear! They also talk about cheating and challenges and how to ensure students are using it safely and responsibly.
