Having a child and a step-child in high school, I have first-hand heard how they are able to get around the use of AI detection tools by their teachers. Kids always find a way. It's exactly as mentioned in #9, the calculating learner; a student who carries out the minimum of effort for the maximum benefit. I don't agree that anyone is able to fully stay informed on the litmitaions of these technologies.

I believe that with the introduction of GenAI, we will see a significant shift in long-held educational practices. No longer will it be relevant to teach subjects like grammar, spelling, even writing conventions. The shift will move, I imagine, into something that looks more like thoughtful reflections and who knows? I wish I knew the answer...

I agree that educators are really all over the place when it comes to GenAI and education. You have educators (especially in the upper grades) that vehemently abhor the use of AI with their students, and on the other end, you have educators that understand its potential and know that it is not going away. I believe that most children now own some type of personal device, whether it's an Alexa in their rooom, a tablet, phone, or computer, and they will continue to have access to AI. Embracing this power of a computer in your pocket is where schools are running far behind on equipping their educators with the tools to grab the reins.
