US Student Committee on AI (SCAI) Meets to Research AI in the Classroom

Dec 12, 2025 | Innovation Highlights, Innovation in Academics, Recent News

D-E’s Upper School Student Committee on Artificial Intelligence (SCAI) is hard at work researching the effects of AI on metacognition (that is, a person’s thought processes).This student group was founded last year and is advised by Chief Innovation Officer Ms. Gross and Mr. Lucci, US World Language Teacher, with the goal of being a resource for the School regarding AI guidelines and understanding AI’s role in the classroom. SCAI meets in subcommittees during Activities Period to take real-world data to make real-life connections. Kudos to this student committee for leading the charge when it comes to helping to develop AI policy—and stay tuned for future findings and SCAI events!
