In the Age of AI Writing, How Can We Truly Develop Literacy Skills?
In an era where AI writes for us, is it really okay for our kids?
Today's children are living in an era where AI writes for them. With tools like ChatGPT that can whip up great content in seconds, even elementary and middle school students are increasingly relying on AI.
But is this trend really okay?
🤔 New Concerns Created by ‘AI Writing’
Initially, many responded positively, saying, "It's great that children can easily start writing." However, over time, various issues have begun to emerge.
✖️ Copy-Pasting Without Thinking
There is an increasing trend of children turning in sentences generated by AI rather than composing their own work.
The results may look decent, but there are few traces of the child's own thinking in the writing.
✖️ Weakening of Critical Thinking Skills
Writing is not just output; it is a complex exercise of organizing, structuring, and expressing thoughts.
If AI replaces this entire process, the child's ability to think independently is not developed.
✖️ Lack of Understanding about Plagiarism and Appropriation
The perception of "What’s wrong with copy-pasting? AI wrote it for me" is growing.
Ultimately, the boundary between one's own work and others' writings blurs, potentially shaking the ethics of learning.

📚 Writing is Training for Thought
Literacy is not merely about the ability to read. It encompasses the abilities to read, understand, express, and organize. And the most effective activity for developing these literacy skills is 'writing'.
Improvement in Structuring and Organizing Information
Development of Sentence Expression and Vocabulary Skills
Enhancement of Critical Thinking Skills
💡 Writing is 'Training to Externalize Thoughts'
Deep understanding and self-expression, which are hard to achieve through reading alone, are solidified through writing.

🤖 Is AI Inherently Bad?
However, we can't simply exclude AI. It is becoming an integral part of children's daily lives and will continue to do so.
The key is how we use AI.
❌ Using AI to Write Instead of the Student → Weakens Critical Thinking
✅ Using AI to Guide Thought Processes and Provide Feedback → Enhances Critical Thinking
In fact, educational AI tools are emerging that provide real-time feedback on students' sentences and guide them to expand their thoughts. What's important is not the 'end product' but whether it plays a role in creating the 'flow of thought' together.
✍️ Qwrite Strengthens 'Self-Writing' Abilities
Qwrite is not merely an AI that completes essays.
It has a structure where AI works as a tutor, guiding the entire process from choosing a topic to outlining and refining the content.
Grow Thoughts: Curious queries the child, drawing out their experiences and emotions.
Outline Writing: Organizes paragraph structure and flow according to the topic, forming the framework of the writing.
Writing: Write the sentences directly, with AI providing hints and questions intermittently.
Edit Writing: Refine the completed writing, checking through expression, logic, grammar, and receiving feedback.
Through this process, children aren't just completing a piece of writing, but they develop their ability to organize and express their own thoughts.
🙌 A Dependable Tool for Teachers and Parents
Qwrite is not a tool solely for students.
Teachers can monitor students' writing flow and thought structure, identifying points for proofreading.
Parents can ensure that their children are growing along with AI, rather than being dependent on it.
Furthermore, it offers prepared writing topics and guides, providing great support for those who find writing instruction challenging or burdensome.
Help children express genuine personal thoughts, not just 'well-written works.'
In the AI era, nourish the core of literacy that doesn’t fade, with Qwrite.
