What should AI literacy actually look like for educators—and how do we keep students at the center while AI changes everything around teaching, learning, and assessment?

In this episode of the Integrate This! EdTech Podcast, David Berner and Jeremy Mikla sit down with Alana Winnick (EdTech Director, author of The Generative Age, and host of The Generative Age Podcast) to unpack what it means to redesign learning in an AI world. Alana also previews her FETC 2026 keynote, “The Future of Learning: Empowering Every Student to Thrive,” and shares what she’s bringing to the conference.

You’ll hear practical ideas for:

• Building a culture where teachers feel safe to try, iterate, and learn
• Using AI for accessibility and multilingual family communication
• Rethinking writing and assessment so we evaluate the learning process, not just the final product
• A simple AI literacy framing: be the detective (bias + misinformation) and the DJ (remix with your voice)
• Why “guidelines” often work better than “policies” in fast-changing AI spaces
