Student AI Guidance

Hello NIS Students,

Please take a look at this handy one-page document to give you some guidance and start conversations with your teachers about AI use in you classes. The most important thing is to work with your teachers to determine the extent to which AI can be used. This is largely based on what is being assessed. Our goal is to give feedback that improves your understanding and academic growth. Your teachers grading and giving you feedback on AI-generated work does not help you learn!

Please also check out our NIS AI webpage for AI-related resources, citation guides, and your very own bot!
