AI stack for teachers

Teachers spend hours on planning and paperwork. These tools are built or widely used for education and help with the prep so more time goes to students. Check your school's data and privacy rules before using any of them with student work.

AI stack for teachers: common questions

Are these AI tools safe to use with students?

Tools like MagicSchool and Khanmigo are built for schools and publish privacy commitments, but rules vary by country and district. Check with your school before students create accounts.

Which AI tools are free for teachers?

MagicSchool and Brisk have free teacher plans, Khanmigo has been free for teachers in the US, and Quizlet, Gamma and Canva all have free tiers. Canva also runs a free education programme for eligible schools.

How do I handle students using AI to write essays?

Detectors are unreliable, so many teachers redesign tasks instead: more drafting in class, oral follow-ups and assignments built on personal experience. Agree a clear AI policy with students.
