The Writing and Research in the Age of AI Academy is an immersive 3-week program designed to introduce high school students to the foundations of research-informed writing and responsible AI use. Students will engage in drafting, revising, and sharing work for various academic and professional audiences. The curriculum focuses on how scholars develop questions, locate reliable resources, and present original research. Participants will examine how evidence is used to craft persuasive arguments, experiment with style, voice, and ethical documentation in digital research environments, and apply lessons from academic writing like journal articles and white papers. The academy provides extensive opportunities for writing practice through daily activities, collaborative problem-solving, self-reflection, peer feedback, and dialogue. The program also explores digital ethics, creative research design, emergent leadership, and social change through the lens of writing and research.
A typical day involves extensive opportunities to practice writing through daily activities, collaborative problem-solving, prompted self-reflection, peer feedback, and dialogue, while also exploring how scholars develop questions, locate reliable resources, and share their original research.
