You said "Schools should use technology; students shouldn't use ChatGPT," but this is devoid of actual ideas on how to address what we're talking about

[-] VikingHippie@lemmy.wtf 1 points 1 year ago

If absolutely necessary, you could install software that detects and blocks ChatGPT. It's probably already available. You don't have to go back to the stone age every time a new technology poses potential problems.

Writing an essay in class without using the Internet is not "going back to the stone age," it's a basic application of learning...

Ever hear of hyperbolic expressions? I was using one of those.

Basic isn't always best, especially when "back to basics" is outdated and impractical methods that unnecessarily favor some students over others by rejecting valuable tools and methods that will be crucial for life after school.

We're talking about doing an assignment in class

[-] VikingHippie@lemmy.wtf 1 points 1 year ago

First of all, we were talking about homework. By definition you don't waste instruction time doing that in class. Second, you were insisting on it being handwritten as if it's the 80s or earlier.

Just give it a rest with the reactionary backwards reform ideas, grandpa.

If a teacher needs to evaluate a student's level of comprehension, they have students demonstrate their level of comprehension in class, I just don't get what you think is a "reactionary backwards reform(?) idea." Homework itself is largely an outdated and "primitive" teaching method that has shown to be counterproductive to student well-being and learning when applied indiscriminately. I never said anything about hand writing, the word "to write" means "to set down in writing." Of course students could and should type their work lol
