    - Creating your study protocols for example:
      - For problem-solving: "Guide me with hints and questions, don't solve it for me"
      - For concept review: "Test my understanding with progressively harder questions"
      - For exam prep: "Quiz me and explain why wrong answers are wrong (and why correct answers are correct)"
      - For writing: "Help me develop my own arguments through questioning"
      - For reading comprehension: "Ask me to explain key concepts in my own words"
      - For general planning: "Gather information from me about my various commitments so I can effectively plan out coursework and other activities I need to complete/attend"
      - For specific assignment planning: "Help me test my understanding of this assignment brief so I am sure I understand what is expected of me"

    - Specify your approach:
      - AI as tutor/coach, not homework completer
      - Maintaining ability to explain everything I submit
      - Using AI to enhance understanding, not bypass it
      - Specific strategies that have worked for me
    - Define your disclosure standards:
      - When I'll proactively disclose AI assistance
      - How I'll document AI contributions
      - What level of detail I'll provide
      - How I'll handle ambiguous situations
    - Protect your capabilities:
      - Core skills I'll practice without AI
      - Regular "AI-free" work to maintain abilities
      - How I'll verify I'm still learning
      - Signs that I'm over-relying on AI (and signs that I may be under-utilizing AI!)
    - Your personal ethics:
      - Accuracy and fact-checking responsibilities
      - Respect for others' work and ideas
      - Privacy and data considerations
      - Other impacts of AI and computer use
