Episode #17 - A Life of Precision Teaching Meeting AI - Dr. Rick Kubina
Today we’re welcoming Dr. Rick Kubina, who is Director of Research at CentralReach as well as Professor of Special Education at The Pennsylvania State University. A trailblazer in precision teaching and the science behind human behavior, we talk about his journey from volunteering at a mental health asylum when he was 16 years old to becoming a pivotal figure in education. Dr. Kubina explains the balance between teaching and entrepreneurial ventures, sharing candid insights from his journey in integrating consulting within his academic career. Our discussion also explores the impact of AI in teaching, the ethical considerations behind it, and the importance of human interaction.
In this episode, you’ll learn about:
Why Dr. Kubina is at the forefront of Precision Teaching and Behavior Science.
How his education at Youngstown State University shaped his career.
How PrecisionX (formerly known as Chartlytics) revolutionizes Precision Teaching and data analysis.
Why balancing teaching and business ventures was pivotal for Dr. Kubina.
How AI can transform data analysis and prediction in Precision Teaching.
Why ethical considerations are crucial in integrating AI in education and healthcare.
Why digital charting offers advantages over traditional paper charts in Precision Teaching.
Why responsible AI usage is essential to prevent misuse in fields like ABA.
How low code platforms enable non-technical users to create functional applications.
Why the human element remains irreplaceable despite technological advancements in education.
How systemic issues prevent the widespread adoption of Precision Teaching tools like the Standard Celeration Chart.
