So, some questions:
1. Was there an explicit policy about AI use?
2. If so, was the policy enforced consistently and explicitly?
3. Were students aware that there would be "traps"?
3. Were students provided the tools they needed to read, conceptualize, and write the essays they were assigned?

One of my foundational values as a teacher is trust and respect, what I call radical honesty. I posted a thread on this on 11/17/24. That's where I want to start. If you're "trying an experiment," "setting a trap," or planting a "Trojan horse" into your assignments, you've already lost the game. 3/8

I mean, I mentioned to my students that I saw the pilot episode of Spongebob in high school and my elderly bones turned to dust, so time is weird.

(Also if I was being accurate, the crowd I rode the train with was a lot of 70-80 folks including an entire sign-taped-to-walkers contingent.)

Am I saying that the Boomers and your average iPad kid have the same level of accurate historical knowledge?

Yes, actually. We're just accustomed to the Boomer version.
