Five principles for using AI in class

A short, citable statement — no forced acronym — to anchor classroom work.

  1. 1

    AI does not teach; you teach

    AI can prepare materials, generate options, summarize documents, and save time on repetitive tasks.

  2. 2

    What goes into the model matters

    When you paste text into an external AI model, that text leaves your control.

  3. 3

    Every AI output is a draft

    The text an AI model generates is a starting point, not a finished product.

  4. 4

    If AI can complete an entire assignment for a student, redesign it

    This principle is uncomfortable, and it is the most important one.

  5. 5

    The best adoption is collective

    Using AI alone, without discussing it with colleagues, produces poor results for two reasons.
