# VerifiedHuman for educators

Students need room to think, make, and discover what they can do. VerifiedHuman’s [education framework](https://verifiedhuman.info/edu) gives teachers and students a shared language for talking about AI’s role in that work.

It is free to reference and teach. No sign-up is required.

## Start with the assignment

Decide what students are meant to learn, then say which kinds of AI help fit that purpose. The [Human–AI Spectrum](https://verifiedhuman.info/human-ai-spectrum) offers five levels, from entirely AI-generated to entirely human-created.

Ask students to describe their process: Which parts did you create? Where did AI help? What did you change, check, or reject?

A clear expectation and a useful conversation tell students more than a rule that simply says “AI allowed.”

## Use the field definitions

Writing, visual work, composition, and performance require different kinds of human contribution. The [definitions](https://verifiedhuman.info/faq#definitions) help make those differences concrete.

For writing, permitted editorial help is different from starting with an AI-generated draft. The Five-Word Principle is a prompt to examine authorship, not an automatic plagiarism test.

VerifiedHuman does not replace a school’s academic rules or grading decisions. Membership is not proof that a disputed assignment was human-authored.

## Teachers make things too

Lesson plans, illustrations, compositions, recorded lessons, and course videos are creative work. You can [join under the standard](https://verifiedhuman.info/join) that fits what you make.

A school or department can also make an [organizational commitment](https://verifiedhuman.info/org). Using the classroom framework does not require that membership.
