IDAHO FALLS \u2014 The College of Eastern Idaho will soon be teaching students how to live with generative artificial intelligence as part of their first-year English class.<\/p>\n

The college is launching an updated English 101 course in Fall 2026 that \u201cemphasizes generative AI literacy, helping students understand, evaluate, and responsibly navigate AI tools,\u201d a CEI news release states.<\/p>\n

CEI says it will be one of the first institutions in Idaho to integrate this kind of content instruction into its first-year curriculum.<\/p>\n

\u201cWith the rise of AI technologies reshaping communication and knowledge work, CEI\u2019s English faculty are taking a proactive approach to help students understand how to use AI effectively, ethically, and responsibly in academic and professional contexts,\u201d states the release. \u201cAs a Microsoft-based institution, CEI will utilize tools such as Microsoft Copilot to support student learning.\u201d<\/p>\n

The release states that students will be taught to understand what generative AI is and how it works, how to evaluate when and how AI is helpful (or not), to analyze AI output for accuracy, bias, and missing perspectives, how to use AI tools to support language production processes, and how to maintain their own voice, judgment, and academic integrity when using AI.<\/p>\n

\u201cBy embedding this new and evolving technology into one of our core general education courses, the English faculty demonstrates their clear understanding of AI\u2019s impact on their discipline and their commitment to putting the needs of students first,\u201d says Jacob Haeberle, Dean of General and Transfer Education at CEI in the release.<\/p>\n

The revised course will be piloted during the Summer 2026 term, with a full rollout planned for Fall 2026.<\/p>\n

CEI says that faculty will gather student feedback frequently during the pilot…<\/p>\n
