ChatGPT

Cheating at one school prompted teachers and administrators to form a committee, and some educators who tolerated text-based AI this year have become more wary of the advantage it gives dishonest students.

A free AI-powered tool from the Journalistic Learning Initiative and Playlab Education Inc. is designed to instill in middle and high school students high standards for interviewing, fact-checking and reporting.

The University of North Carolina’s committee has realized early on that a ban on generative AI technologies was not only impractical, but could potentially hinder students in the long run.

As state and local governments cautiously pursue AI, they must prioritize ethics, transparency and accountability in procurement to protect public interests and deliver on the technology's potential.

Half of teachers say they know a student who was disciplined or faced negative consequences for using — or being accused of using — generative artificial intelligence like ChatGPT to complete a classroom assignment.

As teachers integrate generative artificial intelligence into lesson plans and subjects, doing so responsibly will mean teaching about the limitations and biases of such tools, and discouraging over-reliance on them.

A survey by Intelligent.com found that two-thirds of high school teachers and college instructors are rethinking their assignments, and three-quarters of those teachers are planning to require handwritten work.

Nine months after initially banning ChatGPT, New York City Public Schools aim to work with national experts and school districts across the country to craft policy around the smart use of AI for teaching and learning.

A pilot program at Georgia State University found that students who used an AI-powered teaching assistant got better grades, so researchers think these chatbots could be valuable for struggling students.

A computer science industrial engineering student at West Virginia University is building GPTeacher, a classroom tool that guides students toward answers to problems by creating a series of gateways that they must solve.

Given examples of college-admissions essays generated by ChatGPT, some counselors found them slightly more polished than the average student essay but also somewhat generic and missing details or sensory descriptions.

In a virtual panel discussion Friday, several professors shared their experiences with having students use generative AI for writing assignments and recommended that students be allowed to learn by trial and error.

An educational consultant describes several specific examples, such as having students analyze and improve chatbot-generated essays, coach the chatbot to do better, and test what AI can and can’t do.

Guidance on student use of generative artificial intelligence in college applications varies widely across North Carolina, but universities broadly expect students not to submit AI-generated writing as their own.

Education is poised for a new chapter as generative AI is introduced in classrooms, and while that comes with a healthy amount of concern, it also offers new possibilities that we're only just beginning to uncover.

A survey by Intelligent.com found that about 66 percent of educators are requiring assignments to be handwritten, typed in class without WiFi, or complemented by oral assessments so that students won't rely on ChatGPT.

Researchers at Carnegie Mellon University devised a string of code that could unlock ChatGPT and make it do things it was programmed not to. Now they're working on a "mind reader" tool to study how it makes decisions.

Recently addressing the disruption ChatGPT and other tools have brought to global education, the international cooperative agency recommends new laws and regulations, training and forward-thinking public debate.
