This assignment, by Ethan Mollick and Lilach Mollick, is from Harvard Business School Publishing. It’s one of a series of “Student Use Cases for AI.”

This activity involves students using AI to simulate personalized learning experiences. Students interact with AI to learn new concepts, write reflections on their learning process, and receive feedback. The activity enhances self-directed learning, reflective writing, and the ability to use technology to support learning.

Key Features of This Assignment

Personalized Learning with AI
Students engage with AI to learn new concepts tailored to their individual needs. This interaction helps them understand how AI can provide customized educational experiences, enhancing their learning process.
Reflective Writing
Students write reflections on their learning process with AI, discussing what they learned and how they learned it. This reflective practice strengthens their ability to critically analyze their learning strategies and outcomes.
Feedback Integration
Students receive and integrate feedback from the AI on their reflections and learning progress. This iterative process of receiving feedback and revising their work helps improve their writing skills and encourages continuous improvement.
