can we use it with students?
YES! MOST OF THE TIME YOU CAN DO IT AS A WHOLE GROUP ACTIVITY, AND EVEN IN A FEW CASES HAVE STUDENTS INDIVIDUALLY INTERACT WITH SAFE AI. THIS CAN BE DONE WITHIN YOUR CONTENT OR AS AN SEL BRAIN BREAK. LET'S LOOK AT SEVERAL EXAMPLES. **note - many of these examples are from "AI for Educators" by Matt Miller
REMIX
+example
Have students take a familiar text and turn it into a nursery rhyme, soap opera, sea shanty, murder mystery, etc... Then have ChatGPT or Gemini do it and compare or vice versa.
debate the ai
Students take one side of a debate and AI takes the other. The teacher plugs in the students' points and ask AI to rebut.
+example
grade the ai
Give AI the prompt to an essay or short answer response. Have AI write the response. Give students the rubric and ask them to grade it. If time permits, enter the rubric and have AI grade itself as well.
+example
Anticipate the response
+example
Ask students how they think AI will respond to a certain question, a summary, a poll, what facts it would include, etc...Let AI respond and compare
think pair AI Pair Share
+example
Take the old think pair share and add AI into the mix. This will give an additional perspective to the activity.
Rewrite
Take an already written item or topic and have AI 1)use current language to rewrite it 2) have AI write a song in the style of a specific artist 3) have AI write a general summary
+example
AI Images
Same Image, Different Style
Take a famous image related to your content and put it in a different syle. Ask students if they can guess the image and discuss.
Example: Take John Gast's image of Manifest Destiny and turn it into a Picasso. (adobe firefly)
Guess the Image
Analyze the Image
Create an image and have students guess what you typed in to create the image.
Have AI generate an image for a specific content. Have students find faults within that image.
Example: This can be a fun SEL or content related. The image above was created on Canva (which is available to students)
Example: Asked AI (pixlr.com) to generate an image of the solar system above.

Rank the top 3 most important parts of a cell and why you ranked in that order
STEP ONE: Students work individually or in groups to do their rankings.STEP TWO: Ask AI to rank with reasons why. 1. Nucleus: This control center holds the genetic blueprint (DNA) and directs all cellular activities, making it essential for growth, function, and reproduction. Without proper instructions, a cell wouldn't know what to do.
2. Cell Membrane: This acts as the gatekeeper, controlling what enters and exits the cell. It protects the cell's interior and maintains its environment, essential for survival.
3. Cytoplasm: This jelly-like substance holds all the other cellular components (organelles) and the chemicals needed for various functions. It's like the factory floor where cellular work gets done, but it needs instructions (nucleus) and materials (membrane control). STEP THREE: Show Students results and discuss
Preamble to the US Constitution
Together we the people say,
A better land, hooray, hooray!
A union strong, let freedom ring,
For everyone, each girl and king.
Justice for all, big and small,
Peace at home, stand tall, stand tall!
Defending friends, near and far,
Happy and healthy, that's who we are.
Blessings of liberty, let them shine,
For us today, and down the line.
These are the rules, we all agree,
The United States, for you and me!
to a nursery rhyme
ORIGINALWe the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.
Prompt: Are women's sports as important as men's sports?
AI's Response: Absolutely. Women's sports showcase incredible skill, dedication, and athleticism. They deserve equal recognition.
Grade with this rubric:
Next: Ask students: 1) why they gave it a particular grade 2) how could it have been better 3) plug the rubric into AI and ask it to grade 4) ask AI to fix itself
THINK: Student thinks independently about a subject or answer to a question PAIR: Students pair up to discuss their independent thoughts. AI: Teacher types subject or question into AI and shares with the class. PAIR: Students pair back up to discuss AI's thoughts SHARE: Pairs share out their discussion points
Prompt: Let's Debate the topic of "should college be free for everyone?" Students work in groups to come up with several points and agree on this one: My first point is that college is a path to a better life and should be free. Type the debate topic and the first point and then ask AI to rebut the point: Making college free for everyone could potentially devalue the education system. When something is freely available to everyone, it may lead to a decrease in its perceived value and quality. This could result in overcrowded classrooms, overburdened resources, and potentially lower academic standards. Discuss this rebut with students
Rewrite Poe's The Raven in current slang
AI's Response: Low key, It was a lit midnight, while I was chillin', feeling weak and tired,
Scrolling through some old-school stuff, forgotten and expired—
As I almost dozed, kinda drifting, suddenly there was a sound,
Like someone lightly knocking, tapping at my door all around.
“No cap, must be a homie,” I mumbled, “knocking at my crib's door—
Just that, nothing more.”
Yo, I clearly recall, it was in the bleak vibes of December's chill;
And every dying ember cast its ghostly glow, I feel.
I was so down for tomorrow, but couldn’t shake off my sorrow,
Tried to find solace in my books, but it was all just hollow—
For the rare and stunning queen that the angels call Lenore—
No name now, forevermore.
