AI is moving fast. Faster than policy. Faster than practice. And for a lot of teachers, faster than comfort.
In this recent EdTech Digest article, Juliana Finegan, Vivi’s VP of Educator Experience, steps into that tension with a clear message: the future of education can’t be built around teachers — it has to be built with them.
Drawing on insights from Vivi’s Global Teacher Insights survey, Juliana reflects on what educators are really saying beneath the headlines. Yes, they’re curious about AI. But more than anything, they want tools that respect their expertise, strengthen relationships, and make teaching feel more human, not more automated.
The article doesn’t chase hype. It calls for balance. For progress that actually helps. And for innovation that earns teachers’ trust by listening first.
That belief is core to how Vivi thinks about technology (AI included). If it doesn’t support teachers, reduce friction, or create space for connection, it’s not the right kind of progress.
