I’m sorry but I’m frustrated by the blatant misuse of AI by my students and colleagues alike. It’s so obvious when they don’t understand what they’ve written.

    tbh if this causes the whole school system to be re-evaluated I’ll be happy, school was so utterly streamlined and boring it felt more like a daycare than a genuine place to learn and improve

    Cheating found to be rife in British schools and universities

    This article is more than 10 years old

    Chinese students and their parents fight for the right to cheat

    Not cheating, they said, would put them at a disadvantage in a country where student cheating has become standard practice.

    And it wouldn’t surprise me if it was literally everywhere, the push for schooling isn’t to learn, it’s to pass a test, so the incentive isn’t to learn, it’s to pass the test anyway you can

    Maybe there is a lot more interaction in the future between students and teachers, you can have an assignment, study X, upload it on the web portal, and then maybe the next day there will be a 1 on 1 review where the student has to explain parts of it to ensure they understand what they’re doing

    With AI I’m spending more of my time reading code than writing these days and I like to understand what I’m reading

      You’re getting into a problem with education where there is value in providing ordeals for students to pass, but the cost of grading is significant and something schools are trying to reduce.

      How do you create a system that verifies that the test taker knows the material?

        Defund the dumb teachers! (Kind of a similar analogy, right? /s)
