Dr. Adam Dubé was recently interviewed by CBC News for a story examining how P.E.I. teachers and schools are adapting to the growing use of artificial intelligence in education.
In the article, Dr. Dubé discusses the importance of starting with what we already know about good teaching and learning rather than changing education simply because new AI tools are available. Technology can support learning, but students still need to do meaningful work and actively engage with what they are learning.
He also encourages educators and the public to ask critical questions about how AI enters classrooms, including who develops these technologies and the commercial interests behind them.
The story highlights an idea central to our work at the TLC Lab: new technologies will continue to change, but decisions about using them in education should be guided by evidence about how people actually learn.
