AI tools every student should use (and when not to)

AI can speed up outlining, debugging, and language polish. It should not replace your own thinking or be submitted as original work.

Good uses

• Explaining difficult concepts in simpler language
• Generating practice questions
• Summarizing long readings you have already read

Avoid

• Submitting AI text as your essay
• Blindly trusting citations
• Skipping the learning process entirely
