2025 #JEIEssayContest: Artificial Intelligence
Attention all young innovators and creators of AI!
JEI’s Annual Essay Contest is back!
It’s time to take on a new mission and explore new spheres of creativity and intellect.
We are thrilled to announce the launch of the 2025 JEI Essay Contest, an exciting opportunity for all active JEI students in grades 2 through 9 to showcase their writing prowess.
This year’s theme is “Artificial Intelligence,” inviting students to imagine, create, and share their unique perspectives on how AI can shape our world.
This year’s contest theme, “Artificial Intelligence,” invites young writers to imagine how AI might shape our future. Picture machines that think, robots that help, and technologies that connect people in new ways. This year’s submission-based contest challenges our students to explore both the possibilities and the challenges of AI and to reflect on its impact in their own lives and communities. This is their chance to test not only their reading and writing skills but also their creativity, critical thinking, and ability to express themselves clearly and effectively.
