New Student Resource Release

Over the past year, we've heard from many educators asking: How do I help my students use GenAI responsibly without becoming dependent on it? This question led us to create our newest free resource: A Student Self-Reflection Checklist for Strategic GenAI Use.

The checklist is designed to be a practical tool to help students build safe, ethical, and effective habits when using GenAI.

Our team at AI for Education developed this new resource to help students reflect on their current AI use, recognize where GenAI is supporting their learning, and identify when they may be over-relying on the technology.

The resource includes:

✅ Self-evaluation frameworks across 4 key areas: academic thinking and problem-solving, creative work and expression, communication and social skills, and personal decision-making

✅ A self-scoring system for both strategic use behaviors and growth opportunities to drive reflection

✅ A practical action-planning structure for choosing one focus area and creating a concrete weekly practice plan

✅ An accompanying editable Google Form for educator use in the classroom

It is also designed for both classroom use (discussions, small groups, conferences) and independent student reflection to set goals and track AI literacy development.

We hope this checklist encourages meaningful reflection and helps students develop the strategic GenAI habits that will serve them throughout their academic and professional lives.

It will also be featured in our new free, online GenAI Literacy courses for students, which are launching soon.
