À propos de cet audio

 In EP 37, John and Jason sit down with Anna Mills to discuss the reality of "agentic AI"—browsers that don't just assist students but can potentially become the student. We move past the panic to discuss advocacy, "humanizing" strategies, and how we can respond without giving up on online learning.

EP 37 Anna Mills - Oct 28, 2025 [00:00:00] John Nash: Hey. Quick pause we're collecting listener testimonials, and so if this show has influenced your thinking or your practice in any way, you can share that with us at onlinelearningpodcast.com. There's a link at the top of that page. You can't miss it. Just click that it takes just a second and we'd love your testimonial. [00:00:19] Jason: That's right, just right at the top in kind of obnoxious yellow font, to be honest. But it's a black background and so it's accessible, but still, you should see it at the top. We'd love your feedback. [00:00:31] John Nash: And if this conversation is useful. Take a moment to follow the show so you don't miss any new episodes in Apple Podcasts. Just tap the plus sign on the show page, and in Spotify just tapped the follow button. [00:00:44] Jason: Also, if you like this podcast, we'd love your rating. It helps us in the algorithms kind of bump to the top. So, in Apple Podcasts, you scroll all the way down and find the stars and put the stars in. In Spotify, you hit the three-button menu and then rate this podcast. We'd appreciate. [00:01:03] John Nash: So many steps, but I tell you it's worth it. Alright, to the episode. [00:01:08] Jason: To the episode. [00:01:09] John Nash: I'm John Nash here with Jason Johnston. [00:01:11] Jason: John. Hey everyone. And this is Online Learning in the second half the Online Learning Podcast. [00:01:15] John Nash: We're doing this podcast to let you in on a conversation we've been having for the last three years about online education. Look, online learning has had its chance to be great, and some of it is, but there's still some ways to go here. So how can we get to the next stage? Jason, [00:01:32] Jason: Well, how about we do a podcast and talk about it? [00:01:34] John Nash: I love that idea. What should we talk about today? [00:01:37] Jason: John, there's a lot of a lot of people talking on LinkedIn. This might be the end. [00:01:41] John Nash: Do you think so? Is this where I disclose that I am not actually hosting today, that my Comet browser is hosting for me today? [00:01:49] Jason: This is Comet John. You're doing a great job. It's very, it's almost as believable as the real John, and maybe we're not so bad off after all. But yeah, the, all the talk this week on LinkedIn has been about, agentic AI taking over. The one quote that I took away, I won't name the person, but, on a comment on LinkedIn, said, online asynchronous learning is cooked. And um, I've learned this is not a good thing from my son who uses this term. It can be a good thing somebody can be cooking like in a good way, but cooked means bad. [00:02:24] John Nash: Yep. Yep. So, we have someone in the house today who's going to take us...
