    In Practice: The 5-Minute Teaching Playbook (EP:46)
    With Stacy Craft, M.Ed

    What can we realistically teach in five minutes?

    In environments where time is limited and demands are constant, educating rarely happens in structured sessions. It happens in motion. And yet, these brief moments hold more potential than we often realize.

    In this “In Practice” episode, we explore what meaningful teaching can look like when time is constrained. Drawing from experiences working alongside educators, we explore how narrowing focus, making thinking visible, asking purposeful questions, and closing the loop can transform everyday interactions into powerful learning moments. Rather than adding more to already full schedules, this episode invites us to rethink where learning is already happening, and how small, intentional shifts can shape how learners think, reason, and grow. Because five minutes isn’t enough for everything. But it might be enough for what matters most.

  • From Literacy to Savviness: Rethinking How We Learn with AI (EP:45)
    Feb 7 2026
    From Literacy to Savviness: Rethinking How We Learn with AI (EP:45) With Chris Minter, PHD How do we stay thoughtful, skilled, and grounded as AI accelerates faster than our instincts can adapt? In this episode, we explore the shift from simply knowing about AI to becoming truly savvy in how we use it. Chris Minter invites us to consider how contextual inputs, desired outputs, and intentional engagement shape our ability to think clearly in an age of intelligent tools. Together, we examine the balance between efficiency and depth, the risks of over‑reliance and “AI slop,” and the importance of protecting our own voice, judgment, and craftsmanship as educators and learning leaders.
