Description
This presentation is about one college composition instructor’s experience utilizing an open AI policy. In allowing students to use AI freely, I uncovered significant findings: students often struggle to critically assess generative AI’s output, face challenges in adhering to MLA citation standards for AI sources, and do not intuitively leverage AI effectively as a tool for enhancing their learning. These insights emphasize the urgent need for writing instructors to incorporate AI literacy into their teaching frameworks, ensuring that students can navigate the evolving landscape of AI-enhanced education.
