Full Description
Can generative AI support--not supplant--students' reading, writing, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills? In this practical, literacy-centered guide, Rachel Karchmer-Klein shows how AI tools like ChatGPT and Copilot can be integrated into grades 6-12 instruction without compromising academic rigor or student voice. Grounded in the principles of disciplinary literacy, the book helps teachers shift their mindsets, explore ethical dilemmas, and design content-rich lessons that keep student thinking at the center. With ready-to-use lesson plans, classroom vignettes, Try It Out activities, discussion prompts, and reproducible planning forms that can also be downloaded and printed, this resource empowers educators to reimagine learning in the age of AI.
