Ep. 6 - The Chatbot Ate My Homework (with Christina Andrade Melly)
-

Written by:
Matthew and Val continue the AI-in-schools conversation with Christina Andrade Melly, a high school English teacher, education advocate, former Missouri State Teacher of the Year, and parent. The conversation starts with students using AI in the classroom, but it quickly gets bigger: why some kids use AI to avoid thinking, how bans can backfire, where AI can genuinely help teachers, and why the adult obsession with speed and productivity may be part of the problem. They also talk about reading instruction, school accountability, dopamine and phones, screen rules at home, and what parents can do when AI shows up in schoolwork. Christina's practical advice is simple and useful: get curious first. Is the kid short on time, overwhelmed, or choosing convenience? This is not a panic episode. It is a grounded teacher-and-parent conversation about keeping humans at the center while AI becomes harder to ignore.
