"Our English Department's embrace of Grammarly has been a resounding success. Since using it in Developmental English and Gateway English, we have seen improvement in students’ writing clarity, retention, and overall success. It's not just about catching errors; it's about fostering a culture of effective communication, and that's an investment in our future."

Rowan-Cabarrus Community College (RCCC) is dedicated to empowering students through innovative educational practices, prioritizing continuous improvement in developmental education. Guided by a commitment to fostering student achievement, RCCC consistently adapts and refines its courses to meet evolving educational demands and prepare students effectively for academic and professional success.

The Challenge in the AI Era: The rapid rise of generative AI presents both transformative opportunities and new challenges for educational institutions. While AI enhances learning possibilities, it simultaneously complicates academic integrity and the evaluation of student writing skills. To navigate these complexities, RCCC partnered with Grammarly, integrating Grammarly’s Authorship tool to support responsible AI usage. Grammarly Authorship provides essential transparency by tracking document revisions, assessing originality, and empowering students with targeted guidance for improving their own authentic writing.

"What I love about Grammarly is that it is a safe and secure implementation of an AI tool that ensures student, faculty, and staff information is used in an appropriate way. Grammarly provides all those benefits without risking information."
