<p>Students are already finding their own ways to use AI. Can schools do a better job of showing them how to use it well?</p><p><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://rss.com/podcasts/manaryhaus/2664476/">In part 1 of our student special</a>, Aasha argued that schools need more AI literacy and less fear.</p><p><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://rss.com/podcasts/manaryhaus/2668627/">In part 2</a>, Keya described the tension students feel when AI is helpful and suspicion is high. </p><p><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://rss.com/podcasts/manaryhaus/2676278/">In part 3</a>, Maizah named the deeper dilemma of living with a tool that is everywhere. </p><p>In part 4 of 4, Daniel speaks with Vaani, a high school student interested in law, coding, and the arts, whose perspective is especially practical.</p><p>Vaani uses AI in a very clear-eyed way. She finds it useful for math-heavy and physics-heavy questions, for generating practice tests, and for debugging code when she gets stuck. She believes AI should help you do your work, not do your work for you. She sees the limits of AI writing clearly. She also sees the missed opportunity when teachers allow or use AI in practice, but don't show students how to use it well.</p><p>Students are already using AI. How are schools guiding that use and can they do it with more clarity, better examples, and more honest conversation?</p><p><strong>π What Youβll Learn in This Episode</strong></p><ul><li>β
