In this episode, I chat with Mike McDonald, CEO of Activ8, all about using AI to personalize play-based learning experiences for kids. You’ll also hear about how Activ8 uses AI to give educators ideas for screen-free play activities that can be tailored to specific learning goals and classroom environments. If you’re looking for ways to incorporate more hands-on, movement-based activities into your classroom, this episode is for you!

This episode is brought to you by Activ8, which is on a mission to reintroduce play in education at every level. Activ8 starts with a kit – literally a box – that has games, activities, brain teasers, and more, that help kids engage with each other without being tied to the screen. And there’s great news for teachers – Activ8 also comes with Plai (pronounced play), an AI-powered app just for them that instantly curates activities in context. Have thirteen kids, ten minutes, two cans and a piece of paper (oh, and one student is in a wheelchair?) Plai will instantly give you an activity for exactly that scenario. For any and every scenario. Check it out at unboxactiv8.com >>
