AI, LEARNING & ACADEMIC INTEGRITY

Use AI to support thinking—not replace it.

A curated set of official research, speeches and public talks that explains why Help Me Write Better Studio keeps the learner’s ideas, judgement and writing process at the centre.

UNESCO • 2026

Artificial Intelligence in Education

UNESCO’s current education hub examines opportunity alongside over-reliance, ethical concerns and declining deep-reading skills. Its human-centred approach reinforces the platform’s emphasis on learner agency.

UNESCO IdeasLAB • 2025

AI Operators or Creators?

This analysis contrasts passive dependence on commercial AI systems with active, metacognitive learning. It calls for tools that deepen engagement and critical thinking.

MIT Media Lab • 2025 preprint

Your Brain on ChatGPT

An early study of LLM-assisted essay writing investigated neural engagement, memory and ownership of written work. It is relevant evidence, but should be read as a preprint rather than a final verdict.

Microsoft Research / CHI • 2025

Generative AI and Critical Thinking

A survey of knowledge workers found that higher confidence in GenAI was associated with less critical-thinking effort, while showing how AI shifts thinking toward verification, integration and oversight.

TED • Sal Khan

How AI Could Save—not Destroy—Education

A constructive counterpoint: AI can function as a tutor or teaching assistant when it uses questions and feedback to support learners rather than doing their work for them.

TED2025 • Hany Farid

Trust in the Age of AI

Digital-forensics expert Hany Farid discusses AI-generated misinformation, declining trust and why critical-thinking education is increasingly important.

ABOUT

Technology should strengthen the writer, not replace the writer.

Help Me Write Better Studio™ was created by Marcus Alexander in Barbados around a simple principle: students become better writers by doing the thinking and writing themselves, with the right guidance at the right moment.

The platform supports secondary, college, university and adult learners through planning, drafting, feedback, revision and editing.

Creator

Marcus Alexander

Created in Barbados. Help Me Write Better Studio™ is a Marcus Alexander project built around guided academic writing, learner ownership and stronger independent thinking.

Academic integrity by design

We help you understand the task, develop ideas, organise thinking, review work and make stronger writing decisions.

We do not secretly write the assignment for you.

Build the writer, not just the paper.
