  • Co-Occurrence #11 - From Neurons to Networks: Understanding the Biology of Learning and Artificial Intelligence Parallels (EP.34) With Barbara Oakley, Ph.D Our brains are the center of learning acquisition, so understanding the biological neuroscientific processes behind learning is essential to all educators and learners. These processes are mirrored in artificial intelligence models. Understanding the process of both the human mind and the AI mind can help educators craft successful strategies for when and how to leverage emerging educational technologies. Distinguished Professor of Engineering at Oakland University and author Dr. Barbara Oakley joins host Stacy Craft for a compelling exploration on how learning works, the biology behind our learning processes and the ways that AI is mimicking the neuro processes of organic learning. This episode is the eleventh installment of our limited series, "Co-Occurrence," featuring conversations exploring AI and related technologies as well as possible, probably and actual impacts on education. From discussions around what we know, what we hope for, and what is happening concretely today - this limited series will give you some things to ponder and actionable takeaways. Questions? Feedback?
