Education, AI and Human ThoughtBy Anthony DavidReimagining Education in the Age of Artificial Intelligence

In a world shaped by algorithms, automation, and accelerating change, what does it mean to learn, to teach and most of all, to be human?

Education, AI and Human Thought is a groundbreaking and reflective book that invites educational leaders, teachers and policymakers into a vital conversation at the intersection of technology and humanity. As Artificial Intelligence transforms classrooms, learning environments and societal structures, this book offers a timely and ethical roadmap for how we must respond-not just technologically, but relationally, morally and philosophically.

Key Themes Explored:

Human Wisdom in a Digital Age: What role does embodied wisdom play in contrast to data-driven knowledge?

Relational Learning: Drawing from thinkers like Vygotsky, Noddings, Palmer, Freire, and Dewey, the book explores how connection, empathy, and community remain central to human flourishing.

Education for Justice and Meaning: How can education empower individuals toward authentic living, ethical action, and social transformation?

Leadership with Soul: Reflections for school leaders navigating the moral terrain of curriculum, policy, and innovation in the AI era.

The Role of Creation and Context: Understanding the learner as a person embedded within relationships, creation, and culture-not just systems or standards.

Why You Should Read This Book

This is not another book about EdTech. It is a profound meditation on what it means to be human in the Fourth Industrial Revolution-an age when machines can replicate knowledge, but not love, wisdom, or human presence.

Rather than reacting with fear or na ve optimism, Education, AI and Human Thought offers a thoughtful, hopeful, and deeply human way forward.

Lead with wisdom. Teach with humanity. Shape a future worth inheriting.
