The right way to use AI in schools is to have sharply different policies about how much you allow it. Using AI should be encouraged in some situations and absolutely banned in others.

You should further assume that students will cheat using AI wherever possible. So in the situations where you don't want them using AI, you'll have to prevent it rather than merely forbidding it.
