Many professors encourage students to use AI in their research/writing process, then struggle when students ask exactly how many AI-generated ideas/how much AI generated prose can appear in their academic writing. Too often the rule becomes: if the writing fails the professor's AI sniff test, it’s a problem. This session offers a rhetorically grounded framework for defining “meaningful human contribution.” Participants will leave with a lesson plan on the pitfalls of generic prose, an "updated annotated bibliography” assignment that uses Notebook LM to synthesize research, and a process-based, collaborative assessment strategy. #AIWriting #Assessment
