In April 2025, we had the honour of offering the keynote address at the Adult Basic Education Association of BC’s Annual Conference.
Our talk, Education in an AI World: Embracing the Future with Purpose and Intention, explored what it means to teach, learn, and lead in a moment of technological transformation.
Rather than resisting or romanticizing AI, we invited educators into a deeper reflection:
How can we meet the unknown with grounded clarity, relational courage, and educational practices that center care, community, and co-creation?
We followed the keynote with a hands-on workshop where we explored relational assessment, student agency, and the role of educators as co-sensemakers in uncertain times.
