Episode Details

Kane welcomes Nick, head of music at a low-SES north metropolitan WA school, to discuss practical AI use in music education and teacher admin. Nick describes his long technology journey, current classroom tools (iPads, GarageBand, Reaper, Ableton Live), and his view of AI as a tool rather than a finished musical product, emphasizing human authenticity and collaboration. He highlights Moises as a standout app for real-time transposing, slowing songs, separating stems, and extracting chords and lyrics to support singing, instrumental practice, and analysis—saving significant time compared with traditional workflows. Nick also uses AI for professional emails, images, worksheets, relief work, and is exploring AI-generated assessments and Microsoft Copilot for integrated, privacy-focused admin support, advising teachers to start small, play, and use AI responsibly.
