Tragically, this sentence is so true: For now, many students aren’t being prepared for the hybrid roles they’ll face in the workforce. I'd add that neither are upcoming teachers being trained to prepare students for this role. Everyone knew that the current system wasn't working, even before Chatgpt bounced into our lives two yeas ago, but, it was stuck then, and it's still stuck now. Many stakeholders in education are unsettled, but instead of intensive Professional Development days to educate teachers, it tends to focus on how to STOP students from use AI. Yes, there are individuals but they are a rarity, in part due to extreme time constraints on teachers. I'm curious if you've had a thought experiment on what role the workplace could take in impacting how students are better prepared for their careers with AI.

I will work on it. Thank you for this wonderful suggestion and highlighting a critical issue so many schools face today.
I look forward to your thoughts on this critical issue. Have you perhaps already published an academic paper on it , or something related?
