Responsible AI Use for Students

Use AI for understanding and practice without replacing your own learning.

Editorial note: This guide is intended to provide practical general information. Review important decisions and verify facts for your specific situation.

Use AI as a tutor, not a substitute

Ask for explanations, examples and practice questions instead of submitting unreviewed answers.

Check academic rules

Schools and teachers may have different policies on AI assistance and disclosure.

Verify facts and calculations

AI can confidently make mistakes. Compare important information with textbooks or trusted sources.

Protect personal information

Do not paste student IDs, private records or another person’s work.

Show your own reasoning

The final work should reflect what you understand and be written in your own voice.

Final takeaway

A good workflow combines the speed of digital tools with human review, privacy awareness and clear responsibility for the final result.
