The problem is exactly that: how do you teach students to use it as a tool, rather than a replacement for their brains? A kid won't learn that by using AI at home. They will learn the exact opposite: if it can replace thinking on their own, then they will use it as a replacement for that.

@@schmetterling4477 I think about this problem: the problem is "why?" we do something. I seem your question is how learn. That is a goal and a soft skill of teacher 😅

​@@schmetterling4477schools eventually will stop being gate keepers and certifiers of qualifications. Students have always and will always take the easy way out. Except those few who are genuinely interested in maximizing learning, understanding, and skills. Businesses already know this and so test understanding, and skills.

Some student take longer to express them self's in writing and having a limited time is

@@DuncanTamatiMaki If one in a million students wants to write the next great American novel, that's wonderful. It's a free country and they can do it on their own time. Does it make any difference to the other 999,999 who can barely cope with an average English text? No.

This is what would qualify as a boomer statement. Just because you refuse to allow students to use tools in the course evaluation, doesn't make the tools irrelevant. In fact you hamstring your students to learn useful skills to what they need to know for future profession. It's like you don't want to have students use calculators because, [insert random "in my days" argument]. LLM's change everything that you want the student to learn, and as a result it changes what you actually want to evaluate in curricular activities. To say it is easy to make students not use ai is shortsighted and ignorant.

@@cornee111120 One of the goals of school is to make you intellectually agile. That includes self-sufficiency in the absence of tools. I have done a lot of AI test driving the last few weeks. What I got out of it is that it is rather good at creative writing and basically useless for science. Creative writing is a useful skill to have, IF you are going to become a Hollywood or tv script writer. It's completely useless in almost any other profession. Calculators are not all that useful, by the way. If you have to use them, then it's very likely that you have to do full blown numerical math, which is a multi-semester learning unit at the university level. Most people skip that and just use it in form of simulation tools provided by specialists. 99% of high school students will never use such tools and 99.9% will never do serious numerical math. Only scientists and engineers are engaged that deeply. I can tell, though, that you are not even a user of LLMs because you don't even understand their basic properties and limitations. I will give you attention, anyway. I noticed that you are desperate for it. ;-)
