WRITING CONTEST
The March 2026 - June 2026 prompt is based on
Artificial Intelligence in Education
Your writing submissions for the March 2026 - June 2026 quarter should be centered on the following prompt:
​
As classrooms evolve alongside rapid technological advancement, one force is beginning to reshape how students learn, think, and create: artificial intelligence. From personalized learning platforms to AI-assisted writing and research tools, education is entering a new era where technology is not just a supplement, but a collaborator. This quarter, we invite you to explore the role of AI in Education. More specifically, how it transforms access to knowledge, redefines academic integrity, and challenges traditional ideas of learning. Consider both the opportunities and the ethical questions that arise as AI becomes more embedded in classrooms. Reflect on how these tools impact your own learning, your peers, and the future of education as a whole. Don’t hesitate to draw from your own experiences and values to fuel your writing!
​
As always, we urge you to do some brief research. You can begin with the articles linked below! Happy writing!
