Accuracy and ethics: using AI responsibly in teachers

The general rules are at the bottom of every page. Here is what they mean specifically for teachers.

Student privacy

No names or identifiable work in unapproved tools.

Check tool age requirements before student use.

Grades and placement decisions stay with teachers.

Did I put any personal or confidential data into a tool that isn't approved for it?
Have I checked every fact, number, citation and quote against the original?
Would I be comfortable explaining to my client, patient, employer or regulator how I used AI here?
Am I, the responsible professional, signing off on this myself?

Confidentiality: never paste client, patient, student, employee or customer personal data (PII/PHI) into a public bot. Use tools your organization has approved, with contract terms that cover data use, or remove identifiers first.
Verify everything: bots can invent citations, case law, statistics, doses, code sections and quotes that look real. Check each one against the original source before you rely on it.
Not professional advice: these tutorials teach you how to use AI tools. They are not legal, medical, tax, financial or engineering advice.
A human professional is responsible: the licensed or accountable person reviews, decides and signs. The bot drafts; you own the result.
Prices change: we don't list product prices. Check each vendor's official pricing page.
