With hurricane season still going strong in Hawaiʻi, students and educators across the state have been struggling to keep up with the school year.
For many, keeping up with their demands amid the storms has meant moving their workloads to the weekend.
And as mid-quarter grades are being released, challenges beyond the weather have begun to emerge — like how to manage student use of AI.
Listen on to hear voices from across the state share their thoughts on these themes and more in the latest installment of HPR’s weekly segment, Homeroom Hawaiʻi.
More segments of Hawaiʻi Homeroom will be released on The Conversation, with full episodes planned to be released on Apple and Spotify each month. Stay tuned for more information coming soon.
Homeroom Hawaiʻi is proudly sponsored by HawaiiUSA Federal Credit Union.
