Copilot for Microsoft 365 will be available for students soon, and Microsoft is sharing tips on how they’ll be able to use it.
One of the biggest fears regarding generative AI is how it can negatively impact students’ education by facilitating cheating. However, when used properly, generative AI can be a powerful tool that can promote learning, understanding, and retention of material — and Microsoft is sharing some ways students can take advantage of these benefits.
On Wednesday, Microsoft held its worldwide digital event, Reimagine Education, which focused on the innovative ways schools are using technology. Much of the event concentrated on the hot trend of generative AI. Microsoft even took the opportunity to share that, starting April 1, it will make Copilot for Microsoft 365 available for purchase by higher education institutions as an addon for their students aged 18+.
To help prepare educators and students to make the best use of generative AI, Microsoft shared a Microsoft Education AI Toolkit, an AI in Education Report, and a selection of ways students can leverage AI within their Microsoft 365 workflows.
