AI in education, with human work still in view

Jacqueline Hadel’s guide brings together ethical guidance and practical classroom material for using AI in education. It covers applications in writing, reading, and research, with activities and lesson prompts alongside a distinction between AI as support and AI as a substitute for a learner’s own work. The book also draws on classroom experiences from Bhutan and Belgium and addresses questions relevant to students, teachers, language instructors, and those making education policy. Its central concern is how to use AI in ways that preserve human effort and expression.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Students seeking guidance on using AI in academic work
  • Teachers and language instructors looking for classroom activities and lesson prompts
  • Education program leaders and policy makers considering AI use

Book overview

In a world where AI tools like ChatGPT are reshaping how we write, think, and learn, this book offers a timely, honest, and empowering guide for both students and educators.

"Using AI as a Tool, Not a Crutch" isn't just another how-to manual-it's a thoughtful companion for anyone navigating the ethical, academic, and practical dimensions of AI in education. With clarity and conviction, Jackie H., a globally experienced educator, outlines how artificial intelligence can be used ethically, creatively, and effectively-without replacing human thought, effort, or voice.

Inside, you'll find:

  • Ethical guidelines for responsible AI use

  • Ready-to-use classroom activities and lesson prompts

  • How-to guides for using AI in writing, reading, and research

  • Clear distinctions between support and substitution

  • Advice for students, teachers, CELTA trainers, EAP instructors, and policy makers

  • Real classroom experiences from Bhutan to Belgium

Whether you're a curious learner, a frustrated teacher, or a program director facing policy decisions, this book is a grounding force. It reminds us that while AI can assist with structure, ideas, and polish-it should never erase the human struggle to express, create, and understand.

This is not a shortcut. This is a guide to doing the work-wisely.
