4x03: Exploring the intersection of human skills and AI

In this episode, we speak with Filipa Lemos Cristina, neurolearning specialist, researcher, and DigiEduHack National Ambassador from Portugal. We explore how education can amplify uniquely human traits—like empathy, creativity, and critical thinking—in an age increasingly shaped by AI. From brain-based learning to digital self-awareness, Filipa shares why prioritising the “human edge” in education isn’t optional, but essential.

Key topics covered:

  • Neurolearning and student-centred design
  • Human skills as a compass in AI-powered education
  • Emotional intelligence and digital well-being
  • The risks of automation without critical thinking
  • Strategies for building future-ready learners
  • Balancing tech adoption with human development
