On Monday, June 8, 2026, The Stunt Brothers are excited to share our engaging interview with Colorado educator Dylan Kane. Dylan first caught our attention after we read an article in The Atlantic about Dylan’s cold turkey end to the use of technology in his high school math classes. Dylan teaches in the Rocky Mountain city of Leadville, Colorado where this last January he decided to remove the Chromebooks from his daily instruction. The changes weren’t earth shattering but they were real and student engagement clearly improved.

There are so many talking heads out there who have all kinds of opinions on technology and AI and what is best for the classroom. The problem with many of them is that few of these thinkers are actually still in the classroom. Roy and I have been looking for someone who can present a real world example of taking the tech out of teaching. Dylan Kane came along and we immediately knew his experiences needed to be heard by our listeners. As you listen to Episode 71 of After The Bell you will soon realize just how intelligent Dylan is. He has boots on the ground and his experiences are engaging and thoughtful and will definitely be of great interest to our listeners. He is in no way anti- technology. But he is desirous of great teaching and sound learning conditions and taking technology out of his classes was definitely a positive change.

Enjoy the rest of your Sunday wherever you live on this planet. Listen to this episode tomorrow and share with other educators. As always, stay healthy, stay happy, and stay safe.
