We need to think about personalized learning, competency based learning, UDL,-- they all go hand in hand, and then we add AI to that, you have a lot of great potential there. AI makes it easier to access for more people.

And if you start with positive and then go to negative, that's a very different equation to starting with negative.

Ep 120: The Double Empathy Problem with Aaron Lanou and Colin Ozeki
Quote: If we assume we're talking about non autistic neurotypical educators, being aware that there's more variability in the way we interact and communicate that is natural and valid. That has to be your starting point. We have to recognize that the barriers are created when we don't recognize differences in communication style as being inferior, or as Colin shared some of his stories, even being considered rude, that create barriers.
