We continue to recognize that the future will require students to use their imagination and creativity as well as practice empathy, ethical decision-making and critical thinking. Practicing thinking for themselves—rather than having a computer think for them—provides students with the best means of developing these important skills. Generative AI tools will be used to facilitate critical thinking practices and the ability to use AI as a tool for learning is considered to be a new literacy.
