can<\/em> educators do about AI? Here are some tips from experts and educators on the potential AI problem. <\/p>\n\n\n\nMake your expectations explicitly clear<\/h5>\n\n\n\n As with regular assignments and classroom work, students need to know exactly what constitutes cheating, and whether AI tools are involved or not. Every school or district should devise clear policies around academic dishonesty and what that means specifically. Schools can decide how much or how little students can rely on AI to make cosmetic changes or do research, and should make that clear to students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Talk to students about AI in general and ChatGPT in particular<\/h5>\n\n\n\n One of the best things you can do to prevent AI language models causing havoc in your classroom is to address the elephant in the room. Set some time aside to talk about ChatGPT as a tool and AI in general. Questions could include: Have you heard of ChatGPT? What are other students saying about it? What do you think it should be used for? Discuss the promises, and potential pitfalls, of artificial intelligence. Getting ahead of AI software instead of hoping your students never discover it might be the better approach. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ask the right questions<\/h5>\n\n\n\n A big part of what still separates ChatGPT from human writers is its ability to express opinions and critical thinking. One way teachers can combat students using ChatGPT, or any other language model to cheat, is to design assessments that require critical thinking and creativity, rather than simply testing rote memorization. This could involve asking open-ended questions that require students to apply concepts they\u2018ve learned to new situations or requiring them to solve complex problems that cannot be answered by simply copying and pasting text from the internet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Encourage your students to use ChatGPT in (certAIn) assignments!<\/h5>\n\n\n\n Unlock your students’ critical thinking skills with ChatGPT! Instead of just asking them to write an essay, why not challenge them to use this powerful AI language model to answer a major question or tackle a key challenge from a specific topic from your curriculum? It’s a fun and innovative way to explore new perspectives and push their learning to the next level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Once they’ve used ChatGPT to craft their response, encourage your students to comment on the answer provided. They can use their critical thinking skills to evaluate the quality and depth of the AI-generated response, and compare it with their own ideas and insights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As they reflect on their learning, your students may be surprised at what they discover! ChatGPT’s vast knowledge and sophisticated algorithms can shed new light on even the most complex topics. Have them jot down some of the key insights they gAIned from using ChatGPT, and encourage them to share their findings with the class.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, ChatGPT does keep a record of everything you type into it so make sure you and your students are careful and avoid typing in any personal or confidential information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In conclusion: Discuss, don\u2019t fuss!<\/h5>\n\n\n\n “The initial reaction was ‘OMG, how are we going to stem the tide of all the cheating that will happen with ChatGPT?” sAId Devin Page, a technology specialist with the Calvert County Public School District in Maryland. Now there is a growing realization that “this is the future” and blocking it is not the solution. Being familiar with the resources avAIlable to detect the use of ChatGPT and similar AI programs, Page believes that regulation is the solution, not prohibition. \u201cI think we would be nAIve if we were not aware of the dangers this tool poses, but we also would fAIl to serve our students if we ban them and us from using it for all its potential power,\u201d He went on to say. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The arrival of a highly-literate program doesn\u2019t have to be a terrible harbinger of doom. When pocket calculators became cheap and easy to produce, many people worried that it meant our arithmetic skills were soon-to-be-extinct<\/a>. Not only did this not happen, educators found a way to work with and incorporate calculators into the curriculum. Now, with access to calculators, modern students are expected to perform much more sophisticated calculations than their parents and grandparents were in school. Similarly, If we approach ChatGPT and other language models with an AIm to understand them, this technology can add to our learners\u2019 education, not diminish it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"This blog is all about how students might misuse ChatGPT to do their work for them.
