Throughout my high school career, I have witnessed the impact of AI on the classroom environment. Teachers are now increasingly taking steps to remove AI from the classroom, and almost all of my essays are written in class and sometimes on paper, and for good reason. there is.
Many of my colleagues are using artificial intelligence to cheat on essays, and now they can use photo AI to cheat on many different types of homework. It is becoming increasingly difficult for teachers to tell what is real and what is fake. This measure appears to go back to preventing progression, but is it necessary?
I’m not going to lie, I’ve used AI many times to help me study, grade my work before submission, and study, and I’m not alone. According to a study by Campus Theory. 86% of students admit to already using AI. But this is not just a classroom issue. The University of Delaware offers a course on how to use AI in writing.
And we can already see it not only in schools, but everywhere around us. Just recently, there was news that the ABC station used AI to create articles about scientific research in space. These companies are raising public and corporate concerns about the role AI plays in the workplace, that it is a tool rather than something immoral or anti-human, and that it works like any other tool to make our lives easier. It shows a change in perspective.
One of the primary forms of writing that I and many others have been asked to learn is how informational writing works. We all know the classic idea of finding a few sources and coming up with an essay to tell someone about a topic, but the way AI works is by using multiple sources to create a completely familiar Generate text to tell someone about a topic. That’s what generative AI is for, and it’s far better than you or me at writing informative articles. While I acknowledge that the essay format is still being used to teach writing, I think our approach to writing has improved. Out of place.
There is no denying that AI is a new part of modern society and is advancing faster than we are willing to adapt. So how do we prepare our students for this inevitable future? I think it’s much more effective to show and teach people the value of genuine human opinion. I think so. You might also be able to integrate it into your classroom with a grammar checker like Grammarly or something to help you with the writing process without compromising its authenticity.
One of the things that modern AI has a hard time replicating is the authenticity of human opinion, so it shows its application to information and traditional writing, making the curriculum more opinion-based or argumentative in style. You can also shift towards.
So where does this lead us? To be honest, I don’t know. The concept of AI may seem scary or dystopian, and perhaps it is. But denying its existence serves no one. That’s what we’ve done collectively. At our school.
The future is coming sooner than we expected, and it’s our job as students and educators to face it head-on or look away in fear.
