The Apache Junction Unified School District Governing Board recently discussed districtwide guidance outlining the ethical, responsible and instructional use of generative artificial intelligence in education.
The guidance establishes clear expectations for how AI tools may be used to support teaching, learning and district operations, while reinforcing the importance of human judgment, academic integrity and student agency, it states in a release.
“Artificial intelligence is becoming part of everyday life,” Dr. Robert Pappalardo, AJUSD superintendent, said in the release. “Our job is to help students learn how to use these tools wisely, without losing the thinking, creativity, and guidance that matter most.”
