🧠 Trust, Tasks, and Teaching – Setting Healthy Boundaries with AI

AI can feel overwhelming—especially when we’re not sure what it’s “safe” to use it for. That’s why the Task Complexity Framework in the LLM Cognitive Guide is a game-changer.

It helps educators match the right level of AI support to the right kind of task, building appropriate trust boundaries:

🔹 Level 1: Simple Automation Great for: rephrasing text, drafting emails, making templates✅ Trust level: High (light review only)

🔸 Level 2: Mid-Level Tasks Great for: lesson ideas, presentation outlines, rubric generation⚖️ Trust level: Moderate (human judgment + refinement)

🔺 Level 3: Complex Strategy Tasks Great for: curriculum design, interdisciplinary units, program planning🧭 Trust level: Human-led (LLM assists, but shouldn’t lead)

By using this framework, teachers keep their professional agency intact while benefiting from AI’s speed and synthesis. It's not about offloading responsibility—it’s about redirecting energy toward the creative, meaningful parts of teaching.

And perhaps most importantly: teachers stay in the driver’s seat, with tools that support their thinking rather than replace it.
