When they told us about SAIL, my first thought was that it would be mostly about rules — what you can and cannot do with AI. But from what I understand, it is more about learning to think critically about it, which honestly sounds more interesting and more useful.

  I have heard we will be working on artificial intelligence as part of a European project and I am genuinely curious. I use AI tools almost every day, but I have never really stopped to think about how they work or whether I am using them well. I hope this project helps me figure that out.

  What surprised me most was discovering that AI can be wrong with great confidence. We were shown examples in class and I found it unsettling at first, then empowering — because it means thinking for yourself is still the most important skill.

  Teaching Languages means constantly navigating the boundary between communication and meaning. AI challenges that boundary in ways we cannot ignore. I see the SAIL project as an opportunity to help students understand that behind every generated text there are choices, biases, and responsibilities — and that their own voice still matters.

  I expect the SAIL project to offer our school a structured framework for approaching artificial intelligence not as a threat to authentic learning, but as a resource to be understood, questioned, and used with awareness. At Giordano Bruno, we already encourage students to engage critically with information — SAIL gives us the pedagogical tools to extend that same rigour to AI.

  We don't just use new tools and artificial intelligence in the classroom; artificial intelligence knows no bounds, and a global perspective is undoubtedly important, just as education itself is becoming increasingly global. I am grateful to teachers for drawing our attention to both the advantages and the pitfalls of this new era that is emerging alongside artificial intelligence.

  Artificial intelligence is becoming a part of everyday life. With it, people are able to find information faster and in one place. However, when the information is provided, people cannot be sure whether it is accurate or not. Some people also worry that AI could replace certain jobs in the future. For these reasons, AI should be used carefully and responsibly.”

  In my English lessons, I use artificial intelligence to create interactive activities, explain learning content, and expand students' vocabulary. As a result, students are more motivated and actively participate in class. At the same time, I always remind them to use AI in moderation and to verify the information it provides. From this project, I expect to gain new knowledge about the effective use of artificial intelligence in education, especially examples of good practice. I will incorporate the experience gained into my teaching to further improve the learning process.

  The debate over the role of artificial intelligence in education has also gained momentum at our school, as it is a dynamic and multifaceted process that involves weighing its potential for learning, the effectiveness and accessibility of knowledge, as well as questions of ethics, responsibility, and its impact on the roles of teachers and students in the learning process. An important aspect is how artificial intelligence can become a true tool for progress, rather than merely a symbol of technological enthusiasm.

  I expect that the SAIL project will support our school in a more structured and responsible integration of artificial intelligence into teaching and learning. Since artificial intelligence tools are already widely used by students, participants in various training programs and courses, and teachers, I see a strong need to develop the competencies required for their critical, ethical, effective, and meaningful use in educational practice. I also expect the project to support teachers in gaining confidence in using artificial intelligence in education and in developing a clearer understanding of its opportunities and challenges.

  I expect the SAIL project to help our school implement AI in a more responsible and educational way. AI is already part of students’ lives, so we need to teach them how to use it critically, ethically and effectively.
