Data, Literacy, and Measured Technology

Dr. J recaps their role in EDUCAUSE’s Top 10 for 2026 and walks listeners through the priorities shaping education technology: collaborative cybersecurity, the human edge of AI, data analytics and culture, knowledge management, measured adoption of new tools, tech literacy, proactive planning, AI-driven efficiencies, and decision-maker data skills.

The episode also comments on recent tech news — Time’s AI architects, Oracle’s struggles, Apple cyber alerts, and chip geopolitics — and closes with three practical takeaways: don’t fear tech, build resilience through connection, and take control of your personal data story.
