It’s #TechTipTuesday! Today’s focus is on using artificial intelligence responsibly. 🤖

AI tools can be powerful for learning, brainstorming, and problem-solving, but it is important to use them in ways that support your growth and integrity as a student. Always make sure your work reflects your own thinking and understanding.

Keep these tips in mind when using AI:
➡️ Use AI to support your learning, not replace your effort.
➡️ Double-check information for accuracy before using it in assignments.
➡️ Follow our school guidelines on when and how AI tools are allowed.

Being thoughtful about how you use AI helps you build skills, stay honest, and make the most of your education!
