It offers guidance on where AI can assist in the writing process, such as brainstorming and research, and where it may inhibit deeper learning. The video emphasizes the importance of critical engagement with AI, modeling best practices, and creating AI-free writing spaces. It also recommends requiring students to cite any use of AI to maintain transparency and integrity in their work.
