3:33 - Tony Vincent shows off the new Quizizz AI feature that will automatically generate quizzes based on any selected YouTube video, URL, PDF, PPT, or text prompt.

8:01 - Assessment expert Tom Schimmer makes the point that pre-assessment as an advanced version of what has yet to be taught is pointless.

10:39 - Adam Grant observes that schools tend to favor the fastest sprinters (thinking of timed tests), but life functions more like a marathon that rewards learners who ask the right questions.
