The Big AI Shift, Teaching the Future, Learning in the Present
This week, I’ve been deep in the AI conversation - both inside classrooms and out in the world. If there’s one thing I know for sure, it’s this: AI isn’t just a tool; it’s a shift in how we think, work, and create. And if you’re still on the fence about where you fit into all this, now’s the time to jump in.
🎙️ FEATURED PODCAST: AI in Education and Business with Leigh Mitchell
Leigh is a fellow instructor at York University School of Continuing Studies, a champion for diversity in business, and the person who introduced me to teaching at York in the first place! In this episode, we go deep into how AI is reshaping education, marketing, and the future of work - and what small business owners can do to future-proof their skills.
💡 Key topics:
🔹 How AI is transforming learning (but NOT replacing critical thinking)
🔹 The skills entrepreneurs need to master NOW
🔹 AI’s role in marketing and content creation
🔹 Why AI bias & DEI must be part of the conversation
👩🏽🏫 TEACHING AI AT YORK UNIVERSITY
Did you know? This year, I took on a professor role at York University in the School of Continuing Studies, teaching Digital Marketing and Content Strategy (in an AI forward world). It’s been a month of learning - for me more than anyone else!
The best part?
Seeing how eager professionals are to learn - because AI literacy is quickly becoming as essential as digital literacy was a decade ago.
If you’re wondering, should I be learning this too? The answer is YES - and if a university-level course isn’t for you, MPC is where you need to be.
