2 Oct 2026: ChatEDU hears from the teenagers behind a student AI rights bill
In episode 130 of ChatEDU, released on 2 October and running 1 hour 8 minutes, hosts Matt Mervis and Elizabeth Radday talk to Connecticut students Bena Mejia Romero and Anthony Darbilli about a model bill on student rights around AI, drafted by 100 teenagers. It covers evidence and appeals before AI misuse accusations, limits on AI grading and AI literacy courses.
Why it matters for schools: Pupils are setting out what fair treatment looks like when AI misuse is suspected. Hearing their case can help schools write integrity policies that students see as fair and are more likely to follow.
Best for: school leaders and policy writers drafting academic integrity rules, and teachers who handle suspected AI misuse.
30 Sep 2026: AI for Educators on what always-on AI agents mean for schools
Dan Fitzpatrick's AI for Educators released a 29-minute episode on 30 September about OpenAI's new always-on ChatGPT agents and other recent AI news, including Meta's approval-first agent for small businesses. It ends with three actions for leaders: keep a register of agents, decide which student data never goes into shared AI workspaces, and check AI vendors' risks and contracts.
Why it matters for schools: AI tools that act on their own raise new questions about oversight and data protection. The episode turns those questions into a short checklist leaders can use this term.
Best for: school and district leaders, digital leads and data protection officers.
