Can you use artificial intelligence (AI) in Global Scholars?

  • Yes, if you use AI in a responsible and transparent way. The goal of the Global Scholars program is to help students build global competency skills through virtual exchange. We encourage students to use their authentic voice to share thoughts, ideas, and lived experiences with peers around the world. The guides that follow can help Global Scholars educators and students use AI tools safely and effectively to support this goal. [Insert educator/student guides]

  • Please remember to follow any regulations and guidelines on AI use set by your school or local education authority.
