Game Changers: There's No Such Thing as Digital Citizenship.

Game Changers: There's No Such Thing as Digital Citizenship.

🎤 Live from FETC | There's No Such Thing as Digital Citizenship. Just Citizenship. Guest: Lindy Hockenberry Host: Arvin Ross + Dr. Michelle Ament Presented by: The Human Intelligence Movement 🔍 Episode Summary: Lindy Hockenberry is a K-12 ed tech advisor and strategist based in Montana. At FETC 2026, she sat down to challenge the instinct that keeps creeping back into education: ban the technology, block the tools, act like AI doesn't exist. Her argument is simple and hard to fight. You don't interact with technology through a screen. You interact with it when you walk into a convention center, tap your card at a store, or get into a car. AI is already everywhere. Even someone who ditches social media and carries a flip phone can't avoid it. So the move isn't to hide from it. It's to educate for it. Her unavoidable truth reframes the whole conversation: there is no such thing as digital citizenship. It's just citizenship. The separation between digital and physical interaction is already gone. By 2050, the separation between digital, physical, and biological will be gone too. This one is for every educator who's been told to ban first and ask questions never. 🎤️ About the Hosts: Michelle Ament and Arvin Ross come from different generations, experiences, and disciplines, but their unlikely partnership is built on mutual curiosity, deep listening, and a shared belief in the power of human connection.

Game Changers: The Failure Space is Golden

🎤 Live from FETC | The Failure Space is Golden  Guest: Austin Levinson Host: Arvin Ross + Dr. Michelle Ament  Presented by: The Human Intelligence Movement 🔍 Episode Summary: What happens when a student earns the certification but freezes the moment the script gets thrown out? Austin Levinson is the Director of Learning at Mega Minds, an immersive learning platform. At FETC 2026, he sat down with Arvin to talk about what compliance can't measure and what AI can actually do when we stop trying to use it to replace teachers. Mega Minds drops students into 3D environments where they meet AI characters, navigate ethical dilemmas, and practice the human skills a worksheet can't teach. A carpenter is weighing whether to finish a job early when she's paid by the hour. A transitional student rehearsing how to open a bank account before stepping into the real one. The point isn't engagement for engagement's sake. It's giving students reps in the human skills they'll actually need on the other side of a credential. Austin's unavoidable truth came in two pieces. First, the CTE space is full of students who are technically savvy and students who are clumsy. Second, the difference between thriving and flopping in the AI era is adaptive expertise, the ability to evolve when circumstances shift, not just bounce back to baseline. This one is for anyone building learning experiences in the AI era who knows that compliance isn't competence and that the failure space might be the most important classroom we have. 🎤️ About the Hosts: Michelle Ament and Arvin Ross come from different generations, experiences, and disciplines, but their unlikely partnership is built on mutual curiosity, deep listening, and a shared belief in the power of human connection.

Game Changers: Plant the Seeds. Then Trust What Grows.

🎤 Live from FETC | Plant the Seeds. Then Trust What Grows. Guest: Kelly Vaughn Host: Arvin Ross + Dr. Michelle Ament Presented by: The Human Intelligence Movement 🔍 Episode Summary: How many teacher preparation programs in California actually center social, emotional, and cultural competency as their foundation?  Kelly Vaughn is the Dean for the School of Education at Notre Dame de Namur University in Belmont, California. At FETC 2026, she talked about what it looks like to rebuild teacher preparation from the inside out, starting not with curriculum standards or compliance requirements but with the human skills that make everything else possible. The partnership with the Center for Reaching and Teaching the Whole Child is in year one of a two-year landscape analysis that studies how NDNU's AI initiatives land through a social-emotional and cultural lens. It's slow, intentional, and designed to stick. Kelly's unavoidable truths came in threes: everyone has a story, so take the time to listen. Say thank you, even when you disagree. And when the stakes are high, focus on the issue, not the person. This one is for anyone in K-12 education or higher ed who knows that the future of learning starts with how we prepare the people who teach. 🎤️ About the Hosts: Michelle Ament and Arvin Ross come from different generations, experiences, and disciplines, but their unlikely partnership is built on mutual curiosity, deep listening, and a shared belief in the power of human connection.

LIVE at BOOST: You Can't Say It. You Have to Model It.

🎙️LIVE at BOOST - Episode 2 Guest: Elena Arias Host: Arvin Ross  Presented by: The Human Intelligence Movement 🔍Episode Summary: Everyone is using AI to move faster. To knock out the emails, the lesson plans, the observations. To do more. But Elena Arias has been in expanded learning for 18 years, and she's watching the wrong things get faster. The operational stuff. The transactional stuff. The work that was never the work. Meanwhile, the actual job — slowing down with a staff member, catching the energy when something's off, asking a kid why they think their teacher sucks instead of telling them not to say that — is getting starved. And so are the people doing it. As Director of Programs for After-School All-Stars Los Angeles, Elena oversees 70+ sites and a team of 10. She's not afraid of AI replacing educators. She's afraid we're using AI to scale the parts of the job that don't matter, while abandoning the parts that do. Live from the BOOST Conference, Elena joins Arvin for a conversation about classroom management that isn't management, leadership that can't be delegated, and why the most uniquely human move a leader can make is to slow down when they have every reason to push through. This conversation is about what we're actually modeling. And whether we have the courage to be the example we keep asking other people to be. 🎙️About the Hosts: Michelle Ament and Arvin Ross come from different generations, experiences, and disciplines—but their unlikely partnership is built on mutual curiosity, deep listening, and a shared belief in the power of human connection.

LIVE at BOOST: The Job Was Never What You Thought

🎙️LIVE at BOOST - Episode 1 Guest: Christopher Stephens Host: Arvin Ross  Presented by: The Human Intelligence Movement 🔍Episode Summary: Every school in the country is asking what AI will replace. Every administrator is writing policies to manage the chaos. Every teacher is wondering if their job is next. But the real question isn't what AI will take. It's whether we ever understood the job in the first place. The teacher who imparts knowledge was already replaced. The internet did it a decade ago. We just kept building systems to pretend otherwise. Meanwhile, the work that actually matters — seeing a kid, building the relationship, catching the signs no algorithm can read — has been sitting there the whole time, undervalued and unprotected. Christopher Stephens has spent two decades in expanded learning, from preschool teacher to middle school administrator to coordinator for over 100 districts in San Diego County. He's not afraid of AI replacing educators. He's afraid we still don't know what an educator is actually for. Live from the BOOST Conference, Christopher joins Arvin for a conversation about quality, connection, and the kids who turn their lives around not because someone delivered content, but because someone saw them. This conversation is about what the job actually is. And whether we're brave enough to do it 🎙️About the Hosts: Michelle Ament and Arvin Ross come from different generations, experiences, and disciplines—but their unlikely partnership is built on mutual curiosity, deep listening, and a shared belief in the power of human connection.
