The National Writing Project and NoRedInk have partnered to launch Writing Instruction in the Age of AI, a webinar series aimed at helping teachers integrate AI while fostering students’ critical thinking skills. This initiative aligns with a new executive order promoting AI education in K-12 schools and will provide educators with resources, including a free version of NoRedInk, to support ethical and effective AI-assisted writing instruction. A recent study by Microsoft and Carnegie Mellon highlights the evolving role of critical thinking in AI-assisted tasks, emphasizing the need for thoughtful implementation in classrooms.
