AI natives vs AI immigrants
July 17, 2025
Let's face it - we're pretty much all AI immigrants (source) these days. Coming to the ever-increasing AI options as new kids on the block. Struggling to accept the ubiquity of the technology.
But, in terms of education, imagine students 5 years from now. They will be the AI natives - the ones who use the technology as if it's second-nature, the ones who cannot imagine an education setting without the use of AI.
What does this mean for teachers, parents, and school leaders?
It means we need to start thinking now about how to prepare for a world where AI is not just a tool, but a foundational part of the learning experience. It means rethinking curriculum, assessment, and even the role of the teacher.
The gap between AI natives and AI immigrants will only grow if we don't take steps to bridge it. Let's make sure we're not left behind.
How are you preparing for the AI-native generation?
