Elon University released the 2026 third edition of its Student Guide to Artificial Intelligence, designed to help students use AI tools with “human wisdom” while preserving depth, judgment, and intellectual engagement. The guide includes a self-assessment tool, teacher’s guide learning modules, and exercises meant to clarify when AI accelerates learning versus when it can bypass cognitive work. The publication—released with partners including the American Association of Colleges and Universities and The Princeton Review—positions AI literacy as a learning-outcomes problem, not just an academic-integrity issue. For campuses scaling AI-supported instruction, the resource adds a ready-to-adopt framework that could be incorporated into first-year seminars, writing programs, and advising so that student success supports align with how AI is being used in practice.
