Dan Fitzpatrick’s work centers on equipping educators and students for a future where AI plays a transformative role in learning and teaching. He advocates for the strategic integration of AI in educational institutions and businesses, stressing the importance of adapting to rapidly evolving technology.

He provides a compelling summary of how teachers can position AI as a collaborator in the classroom. Fitzpatrick highlights the need for students to learn how to craft effective prompts for AI tools and to interpret and critically evaluate AI-generated outputs. Additionally, he makes a strong case for assessment methods such as oral defenses or real-time problem-solving to ensure genuine understanding that goes beyond what AI can replicate.
