Current State of Education: Kim and Udo express concerns about the declining PISA scores across OECD countries, particularly since 2012.
They discuss how platforms like Facebook, YouTube, and TikTok have taken over as major information sources, leading to issues with misinformation and the challenge of discerning credible sources from unverified content. Both suggest that these platforms could help by providing educational content that’s peer-reviewed or community-validated.
Content Accessibility: Kim points out the limitations of accessing academic resources and suggests keeping valuable peer reviewed information gatekept behind an ".edu" email is outdated and most people aren't there anyway. Udo suggests potential in democratizing access, such as MIT OpenCourseWare, which offers free online courses on Youtube.
Misinformation and Fact-Checking: Both see issues with misinformation on platforms like TikTok and YouTube, especially among younger audiences. They propose a system where AI fact-checking is integrated into digital media, allowing viewers to verify sources and understand the credibility of content in real time. Such as live Presidential debates. Imagining bookmarking parts of the speech for dive deeper (or fact check) later once debate is over.
School System Overhaul Ideas: Incorporating Life Skills into Curriculum: Kim and Udo emphasizes teaching practical life skills such as Focus on Projects Over Grades: Udo proposes a shift toward project-based learning and skill development over test performance until 8th grade. Students could work on creative projects that develop practical skills.
- Investigate you and your partners relationship with money (incredibly important)
- Setting goals and doing relatively difficult things
- Learning to set boundaries
- physical activity, encouraging students to find fun exercises they enjoy (think outside of the box)
- How to destress and the importance of having (or finding) that something

Leveraging AI for Education: The duo explores the potential of AI study tools that could allow students to retrieve information quickly, reducing stress and improving learning efficiency. They highlight NotebookLM and other AI platforms that streamline research, organize study materials, and create custom study guides.
Value of Emotional Connection to Learning: They emphasize the power of emotional engagement in the classroom, sharing personal stories of great teachers who left lasting impressions. Kim and Udo propose that a curriculum fostering curiosity and wonder could keep students motivated and interested.
