In Episode 13 of Smarter Campus, host Zach Kinzler sits down with Victoria Davis—aka the Cool Cat Teacher—to explore how AI is rewriting the rulebook in education. Victoria shares her journey from writing code at age seven to shaping classrooms as a Computer Science and Digital Film teacher, IT director, and award-winning blogger. Together they discuss:

  • How AI’s progression “goes viral” once it hits a tipping point (thanks to insights from Peter Diamandis’s The Future Is Faster Than You Think)
  • The critical role of educators in unpacking AI’s ethics and debunking bias for students
  • Practical examples of incorporating AI tools into media literacy courses
  • Why understanding technology’s moral and ethical dimensions is as important as mastering the tools themselves

Get ready for a lively conversation that blends real-world teaching, cutting-edge tech, and a “cool cat’s” perspective on why AI shouldn’t be feared—it should be thoughtfully embraced. Tune in and discover how to prepare the next generation of learners for a world where change accelerates at lightning speed.
