Discover strategies to use AI thoughtfully in every stage of the writing process—without compromising creativity or critical thinking
Feeling conflicted about integrating artificial intelligence (AI) into your writing instruction? You’re not alone. In a world where AI-generated text can seem like a writing teacher’s enemy, incorporating it into writing instruction may feel like an act of betrayal. The advent of generative AI might feel like “one more thing” eroding students’ capacity for deep thinking.
Artful AI in Writing Instruction offers strategies and lessons for middle and high school teachers to harness AI in a positive way, integrating it into the writing process and evaluating the ethics of its usage. Written by a full-time high school teacher, Brett Vogelsinger, the book focuses on evergreen principles and ideas rather than specific AI tools, providing concrete steps and lessons that teachers can implement without being technology experts. Acknowledging the varying perspectives of teachers on AI in writing instruction, from skepticism to enthusiasm, Brett offers a human-centered, considered, and ethical approach to using generative AI in the classroom.
