Technology Essentials in Education is your go-to podcast for practical insights on using technology to simplify your school week. Hosted by author and educator Monica Burns, Ed.D., in partnership with Jotform, this series is designed for K-12 educators, administrators, and leaders looking to make a meaningful impact.

In this episode, Monica chats with Heather Turbeville, Content Director at Jotform, who shares exclusive findings from Jotform’s 2026 EdTech Trends Report. Together, they explore the shift from the “novelty era” of AI to a new era of purposeful integration in the classroom.

They discuss why educators prioritize tool interoperability over new features, how AI is being used to reclaim “brain capital,” and the transition of AI from a productivity helper to a deeply embedded part of school workflows.

Dark 1920s gangster jazz over morning coffee and yesterday’s headlines — smug piano, sly gypsy swing, and cold satisfied brass for deep focus, late-night work, and study with an edge.

Someone always writes about it the next morning. He just never expected to enjoy reading it quite this much. Coffee’s still warm. So is the ink.

Perfect for: deep focus & studying, background work music.
