Voices of eLearning is back with a new season of educational insights in the digital age. This third season promises new topics, new guests, and a revisiting of a few areas still making headlines in education today. Teacher shortages haven’t ceased, and education is continually adjusting to life after the pandemic.

“We have to continue to learn from all the things we had to endure, and advance technology- wise during the pandemic, and have conversations about what to keep, and what to hopefully never have to do again,” JW Marshall, the Voices of eLearning co-host, said. “Because it wasn’t the best for our teachers and our students.”

Co-Hosts, JW Marshall and Leena Marie Saleh, will continue to bring the best education and technology leaders to the show to explore the latest trends in EdTech, teaching, and leadership.

In this season 3 introductory episode, Marshall and Saleh highlight ongoing education needs and what’s upcoming on Voices of eLearning…

● Filling the gaps in education that the pandemic created

● Finding the best teaching strategies and programs

● The role AI will play in schools in 2023 and beyond

“It was about a week after we wrapped season two that ChatGPT made its way onto the scene, and it’s been a couple of months now,” Marshall said. “The big reoccurring theme this season is going to be—it’s not a fad; it’s not something that we’re talking about for a few months, and then it kind of dies down, and something else takes the spotlight. It’s here to stay. And it is going to be a game changer.”

School districts wait until 2027 to tap DOE's $100 million energy program

School districts wait until 2027 to tap DOE's $100 million energy program

The U.S. Department of Energy's $100 million A+STEPS school energy program funds four to eight regional hubs before any district gets help. Coalition bids for hubs are due Jan. 15, 2027. Districts, eligible for up to $250,000 in early upgrades, enter through a separate process with selections expected in fall 2027.

  • 01The first deadline in DOE's $100 million school energy program, Jan. 15, 2027, belongs to the engineering firms, utilities and universities bidding to run regional hubs; districts won't be selected until fall 2027.
  • 02A single round of four to eight hubs at $2 million to $5 million each would commit roughly $8 million to $40 million, well under the $100 million ceiling, which points to multiple rounds.
  • 03For a district facing an equipment replacement this budget year, A+STEPS is a planning tool on a 2027 calendar; its value is a financeable project plan more than the $250,000 early-work cap.

From AI Governance to Guardrails with Hood College's April Boulton

From AI Governance to Guardrails with Hood College's April Boulton

Hood College built an AI task force that intentionally included skeptics alongside early adopters, producing a two-layer policy with campus guardrails and room for discipline- and unit-specific rules. The policy restricts sensitive data and student work to vetted, licensed tools, while assessment guidance varies by discipline through workshops, and Hood is not using AI detection software.

  • 01Task force co-chairs actively recruited faculty skeptics—including an ethics critic and a tech educator—to sit alongside enthusiasts; the resulting friction shaped discussions on syllabus rules and assessment.
  • 02Campus environmental scan showed over 40% faculty and staff participation, with respondents requesting clear policy plus discipline flexibility rather than either a college-wide ban or a free-for-all.
  • 03Hood’s two-layer policy limits sensitive data and student work to college-vetted, licensed tools, and professional development reinforces the approved-tools list.

Qweebi, already in 5,200 schools, raises $500K to win US districts

Qweebi, already in 5,200 schools, raises $500K to win US districts

Qweebi, a browser-based engineering and robotics platform for grades 3 to 8, raised a $500,000 seed round led by Inflection Point Ventures. Its 5,200-plus US schools came largely through teacher sign-ups.

  • 01Listed project run times range from 2 hours to 4.5 hours, so the schedule a STEM coordinator plans around depends on which project is picked, not the 2–3 hour headline.
