In this episode of The Conscious Classroom, Amy Edelstein questions the use of the popular idiom "returning to analog." While agreeing with the sentiment that we reconnect with the preciousness of our humanity as technology continues to advance rapidly, she questions placing that sentiment within in technical context. Amy discusses the balance between digital experiences and the visceral richness of our awareness and connections and looks at some of the questions surrounding Ed-Tech and the integration of AI into the classroom.
Key themes include:
• Exploring the concept of returning to analog in a digital age
• Evoking the transcendent experience of listening to analog music
• Highlighting the sacred nature of the emergence of human awareness in the broad sweep of evolutionary history
• Emphasizing the importance of genuine human relationships
• Discussing the role of AI and its potential impact on learning and relationships
• Advocating for mindfulness and contemplative practice in the classroom and its connection to our humanity
