Abstract

Generative AI has prompted fervent speculation about its benefits for student engagement. However, evidence and experiences suggest that students may receive AI unevenly in terms of interest and understanding. We propose a framework for engaging students equitably and effectively with AI in ways that develop practical skills and critical literacies.
