🎙 You’re tuned in to The Education Evolution—and this is Tech Evolution.
What if the biggest changes coming to classrooms aren’t being decided in schools—but at tech conferences like CES 2026?
Which education technologies actually support learning—and which ones quietly make it harder?
And what happens when innovation moves faster than educators are invited into the conversation?
In this episode, Mr. Jihad breaks down the education and learning technologies showcased at CES 2026 and what they signal for classrooms, students, and educators. CES isn’t an education conference—but the tools unveiled there often reach schools long before teachers have a seat at the table.
Drawing on experience as a former Special Education teacher, this episode examines:
AI as a conversational learning partner (not a shortcut)
Why hands-on and physical learning still matters in a tech-driven world
Where robotics and AI tools belong—and where they don’t
How poorly designed tech can increase cognitive load and widen equity gaps
Why educators must stay in the driver’s seat as learning tools evolve
This conversation isn’t about hype or flashy gadgets. It’s about design, access, attention, and learning science. Every tool raises the same question:
Who is this built for—and what problem is it actually solving?
If you care about AI in education, education technology, learning science, or the future of classrooms, this episode will help you think more critically about what innovation should actually look like.

Learning doesn’t stop at school—and neither does its impact.
