AI in Classrooms Maine | Portland Maine News

In Bangor, Maine, teachers are turning AI into a classroom ally—not an enemy. Instead of banning it, educators like music teacher Sarah Cousins and science teacher Tracy Vassiliev are teaching students to harness AI as a creative tool, refining its output rather than relying on it blindly. Students learn to edit, improve, and think critically about AI-generated ideas, keeping themselves in control of the learning process. The result? Fewer cheating attempts and more empowered thinkers—preparing kids for a future where AI is everywhere, but human creativity and judgment remain irreplaceable.
