Fostering Critical AI Literacy for Multilingual Students

The AWAC Mentoring Committee invites members to a special virtual workshop titled Fostering Critical AI Literacy for Multilingual Students, featuring guest speakers Chaoran Wang and Zhaozhe Wang. Drawing on their recent research into how multilingual students engage with AI-assisted writing, the presenters will unpack the complexities, misconceptions, and debates surrounding student use of generative AI tools.

This session will highlight classroom strategies for integrating critical AI literacy into writing instruction. Wang and Wang will offer insights on how to help multilingual students develop awareness of their own linguistic identities, critically assess AI technologies, and use AI in ways that support rather than suppress their multilingual voices—pushing back against AI-driven biases in language.

The workshop takes place on Tuesday, April 1, from 4:00–5:00 p.m. Eastern / 3:00–4:00 p.m. Central / 2:00–3:00 p.m. Mountain / 1:00–2:00 p.m. Pacific.
