Help middle school students learn how to use AI without losing their own voice!
 
As AI becomes more common in classrooms, students need explicit instruction on the difference between using AI as a thinking partner and letting AI do the thinking for them.
 
This engaging 50-minute lesson teaches students how to use AI responsibly while maintaining authorship, creativity, and academic integrity.
 
Students write their own response first, compare it with a school-approved AI chatbot, and then use AI feedback to improve their writing—without allowing AI to replace their ideas.
 
This lesson is perfect for:
AI Literacy units
Digital Citizenship
English Language Arts
Technology classes
Advisory/Homeroom
Media Literacy
Back-to-School expectations
Responsible AI use discussions
