ShiftED Podcast #111 • Good Teaching Is Still Good Teaching : Dr. Tom D'Amico on AI, Relationships and Learning

What if AI in education isn't really about the technology at all?In this episode of ShiftED, Chris Colley sits down with Dr. Tom D’Amico, former Director of Education at the Ottawa Catholic School Board, to explore what AI could mean for teaching and learning. From listening to student voices and building teacher AI literacy to rethinking assessment and reducing educator workload, Tom challenges us to look beyond the tools. His message? Start with people, focus on pedagogy, and use technology when it actually makes learning better. Because good teaching is still good teaching.
