    Mike talks to Ann Skeet, co-author of 'Ethics in an Age of Disruptive Technology', about the book's genesis and its practical ideas. Known as The ITEC Handbook, it is a dynamic and living document combining input from the Vatican and evidence of what actually works best in organisations. You can download it here:

    Although now based in Silicon Valley, and supporting companies globally through the Markkula Centre at Santa Clara University, Ann is also an ex-teacher who, in our conversation, applies the book's concepts to school contexts.

    • Should a student declare their use of AI for homework?
    • Did the pope contribute to the handbook?
    • What is an anchoring principle and does your school have one?
