Vanessa brings the perspective of a school leader working at the intersection of student well-being, discipline, leadership, and strategic decision-making. The conversation explores the changing meaning of cheating, the growing ambiguity around AI use in classrooms, the risks of deepfakes and student harm, and the reality that many schools are still building policy in real time. They also dive into data privacy, board-level responsibility, mental health concerns, and why the future of school may look very different than it does today. If you want a grounded look at how AI is affecting real students, real schools, and real leadership decisions right now, this is the episode. &amp;nbsp; Show notes: 00:00 \u2014 Welcome + Vanessa Wade introduction 02:15 \u2014 AI at the leadership level + shifting expectations 04:30 \u2014 Student behavior changes + integrity concerns 07:10 \u2014 Getting answers without learning 09:30 \u2014 Is cheating still cheating? 11:15 \u2014 AI and student curiosity 14:05 \u2014 Are students being introduced to AI too early? 16:10 \u2014 AI in student life: discipline + deepfakes 20:20 \u2014 When schools involve law enforcement 26:15 \u2014 Data privacy + risks of using AI in schools 30:30 \u2014 Using AI for student data + decision-making 32:25 \u2014 Lack of policy + schools figuring it out in real time 34:25 \u2014 AI and mental health concerns 39:45 \u2014 Fear vs. excitement: leadership perspective 41:00 \u2014 Biggest mistakes schools will make with AI 43:05 \u2014 What happens if schools do nothing 46:20 \u2014 What boards should be focused on 48:30 \u2014 Will AI make schools better or just different? 52:15 \u2014 The next major shift in education &amp;nbsp; Connect with Vanessa Wade:&amp;nbsp;linkedin.com\/in\/vanessa-wade-b6387515 ","author_name":"Roll Call Podcast","author_url":"http:\/\/rollcall.libsyn.com\/website","html":"<iframe title=\"Libsyn Player\" style=\"border: none\" src=\"\/\/html5-player.libsyn.com\/embed\/episode\/id\/41033305\/height\/90\/theme\/custom\/thumbnail\/yes\/direction\/forward\/render-playlist\/no\/custom-color\/88AA3C\/\" height=\"90\" width=\"600\" scrolling=\"no\"  allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen oallowfullscreen msallowfullscreen><\/iframe>","thumbnail_url":"https:\/\/assets.libsyn.com\/secure\/content\/201246405"}
