    Discernment, Ethics, and Human Expertise: Rita Bateson on Making AI Work for Education
    Nov 15 2025
    ITP - 134 A huge welcome to Rita Bateson of Eblana Learning, who unpacks the real-world mess and magic of AI in education. She takes listeners through her globe-trotting career from Dublin to Rome, Bermuda, Germany, and the IB, weaving in how AI is reshaping classrooms, assessment, teacher workload, academic integrity, and student habits. Rita explains the Overton Window of AI discourse, why teachers need both AI literacy and healthy skepticism, and how schools can balance innovation with ethics, sustainability, and good old-fashioned human expertise.The hosts dig into critical thinking, cognitive offloading, phone-free schools, environmental costs of AI, and why students’ inch-wide, mile-deep use of AI demands that teachers develop broader understanding. Rita also shares the mission behind Eblana Learning, their AI curriculum, PD academy, and her drive to support leaders navigating AI without panic or techno-worship. Add in some delightfully unhinged international misadventure stories (Swiss banks, English “interpreter” classes), and you’ve got an episode loaded with insight, humor, and brutally honest guidance for teachers worldwide.Rita is a Cofounder of Eblana LearningThe full link is https://eblanalearning.com/If you need Rita as an Italian interpreter, here is her LinkedIN profile link.

  • MultilinGUalsim, Taiwan, & Guatemala

    MultilinGUalsim, Taiwan, & Guatemala
    Nov 2 2025

    ITP - 133 Canadian educator Kelly Hogan shared how she transitioned from a career in arts and design to international teaching, spending 13 years in Taiwan where she earned her master’s through the College of New Jersey’s overseas cohort and later moved to Guatemala as a dual-language liaison at the American School of Guatemala.

    We discuss how teaching abroad offers ways to grow professionally without returning home, how programs like TCNJ connect global educators, and how cultural differences shape classroom expectations—rigorous academics in Asia versus balance and socialization in Latin America. Her closing advice urges international teachers to build networks, seek help, and support others adjusting to life overseas.

  • Lessons from Taiwan: Project-Based Learning and the Power of Diversity

    Lessons from Taiwan: Project-Based Learning and the Power of Diversity
    Oct 18 2025
    ITP - 132 Tristan Reynolds beams in from Taiwan to explain how his startup school stops yappin’ about “global citizens” and actually coaches students into action. Think project-based learning with real tools. Teachers act less like wind-up lecterns and more like pit-crew chiefs. The place is young, scrappy, and cosmopolitan enough to turn a literature class into a live fire exercise on language and identity. We detour through semiconductors, gym-hall ballot counting, and Taipei traffic that looks like Mario Kart with medical bills. A local cop cheerfully explains his job is to write the report after the crash, which, honestly, is the most on-brand public-sector energy we’ve heard in years. Between staff bouncing across continents and students mixing mother tongues like a cocktail, the through-line is simple: teach kids to actually do stuff together, then get out of the way. Also, Tristan never remembers a toothbrush, but he does remember the tiny teapot. Priorities? Just kidding! Tristan experiences countries through local-begotten, everyday items.Links from this show:Tristan’s website: www.tristanreynolds.com Tristan Reynolds is an educator and writer who focuses on international best practices in education and the impacts of globalization on education. His work focuses on the importance of creating schools which support celebrating different cultures, and which cultivate a cosmopolitan attitude in students. He holds an M.S.Ed. from Johns Hopkins University, serves as a mentor for the UNSDSN Global Schools Program, and is a 2021 Teach For America alum.Tristan teaches at VIS Experimental International SchoolThe article mentioned: 'The problem with English' by Mario SaraceniAlso mentioned PBL: What is PBL?Chapters(00:00) International Education and Project-Based Learning(05:26) The Role of Technology and Community in Education(10:58) Teaching Methodologies and Student Engagement(16:28) The Dynamics of a New School and Its Growth(19:02) The Journey of Teaching and Student Growth(20:32) Mid-show ITP Connections(21:51) Navigating Transience in International Education(24:26) Colliding Worlds: Stories from the International Circuit(28:04) Cultural Insights from Taiwan(31:18) The Role of Language and Identity in Education(36:42) Creating a Diverse Learning Environment(42:16) Personal Connections and Cultural Artifacts(45:16) Reflections and Future ConnectionsThe International Teacher Podcast is a bi-weekly discussion with experts in international education.
