We’re poised at a stunning point in human history: the advent of generative AI. As writing teachers we are faced with this profound question: Can we evolve alongside this technology, and bring it into our classroom in ways that enhance rather than harm the integrity of our work? Find the “write balance” with AI in the Writing Workshop, a blueprint for teachers to navigate this new terrain while preserving the essence of creative struggle and critical thinking. Dennis Magliozzi and Kristina Peterson provide a detailed look at how to ethically integrate AI into writing units across the school year, including personal narrative, poetry, analysis, and research. Their ready-to-use exercises, activities, and prompts give you a framework of best practices.  Your students will learn to critically evaluate AI-generated content and engage with AI as a collaborative thinker rather than simply accepting what AI produces. Build your confidence and competence using ChatGPT and other AI tools while discovering the possibilities of engaging students in new and meaningful ways. Be a part of human history.
