Description

This presentation explores the integration of institutionally licensed AI tools into all sections of ENG 175, a first-year writing course, with a focus on ethical use, academic integrity, and human-tool collaboration. We began with an AI ethics session in the First-Year Experience program a week before the school year started, setting a foundation for responsible engagement. Meeting three times per section over the semester, students engaged in three key exercises: using Grammarly to revise essays through Leo Lo' s CLEAR Framework, comparing self-written summaries with Scholarcy-generated ones for critical analysis, and creating visual expressions with ImageFX to explore AI' s role in creative visual expression. Attendees will gain insights into fostering responsible, collaborative AI use in education.
