What Does It Mean to Use AI

Reposted with permission by The Important Work (https://theimportantwork.substack.com/) and Brett Vogelsinger (https://www.corwin.com/books/artful-ai-292671) The Important Work is a space for writing instructors at all levels—high school, college, and beyond—to share reflections about teaching writing in the era of generative AI.

This week's post is by Brett Vogelsinger, a high school English teacher in Pennsylvania. Brett's new book, Artful AI in Writing Instruction: A Human-Centered Approach to Artificial Intelligence in Grades 6-12 investigates how teachers can carefully weigh the inclusion of AI tools at different stages of the writing process. It includes interviews with teachers and students as well as use-tomorrow lessons to help guide classrooms through this new landscape to artful results and stronger writers.
