AI is evolving fast, but the next leap isn’t about smarter chatbots. It’s about systems that support learners in new ways. In this episode, Jerri and Jamie sit down with Darren Coxon: a trailblazer in agentic AI and one of today's most insightful voices on how AI can enhance learning.
Darren unpacks the shift from generative AI to agentic AI, where systems don’t just answer questions; they take action, analyze, iterate, and provide meaningful support to learners. Together, we break down how he partners with schools to implement AI responsibly so students build a deeper understanding, stronger skills, and real ownership of their learning. He also lays out a bold, five-year vision for AI in K–12 and explains why this moment is a once-in-a-generation chance to rethink what learning can be.
