This presentation demonstrates how structured engagement with AI tools affects students' critical thinking skills, voice development, and decision-making processes in their writing practice. As generative AI tools become increasingly prevalent in academic settings, journalism students must prepare to engage creatively and critically with these technologies while maintaining a focus on the development of their own writing skills.
