AI for Feedback
AI is being used inside classrooms by both students and teachers for many different tasks, like grading schoolwork, or using it to help complete schoolwork, and AI can help give feedback on any problems and answer some questions that students are curious about. AI can give feedback, usually instantaneously, depending on the AI and hardware the student or teacher is using, and the feedback it can give can be worded to help the individual understand what they either did wrong or how they got to the answer they got, since you can prompt AI to personalize the feedback given depending on what you type. AI feedback is not perfect because, depending on what AI software you use, the feedback one can get from it can be inaccurate, because some AI only takes from a few sources, and some sources are not reliable and can give you the wrong answers.
Academic Integrity & Ethics
The concerns that teachers and students should have when using AI are what sources are being used to give feedback and what kind of feedback is being given. Some of the information that AI can process can be biased on a subject or material, which can lead to some inaccurate or inappropriate answers that may not align with the person trying to answer or understand the material that is given to them. It's important that the teacher also check the feedback that is being given to the student in case of inappropriate answers, and to make sure that the student is understanding the feedback they are getting, because sometimes it's hard to type or put into words what someone does not understand about a problem. So, having someone to ask or show them what they can understand is important when it comes to teaching.
Your Perspective
How I would integrate AI into assessment practices by allowing the use of AI only after students are taught how to properly use it and limiting its use. I think overly relying on a Ai program that gives you the answer to a problem or writes an essay for you is bad and would not be use but AI that fixes grammar mistakes, like for example you didn’t use the right there, or you didn’t place a comma correctly, are fine. I also think it's fine if you use AI to help find sources on certain subjects, like asking it to find articles on dinosaurs or math, whatever subject you need to be fine with as well. I would make it a requirement to show if you use AI and what the AI did, like write down the sources you found and the sources that AI found. Did you use AI to draft an essay? Things like that. I think overly using AI is bad because, depending on what AI you use, the information that is given to you can be wrong and biased to a certain subject, and using AI too much will muddle some of your skills, like writing or research, so there would be a limit on how many times one can use it for an assignment.
Hi Alexander Hello, my name is Jorge. I really enjoyed reading your post about how AI is being used in education. I thought it was interesting how you explained both the benefits and the risks, especially how AI can give fast feedback but may not always be accurate. One thing that stood out to me was your point about students relying too much on AI. I agree with that because it can affect learning if students stop thinking for themselves. I think AI works best as a support tool rather than something that does all the work.
ReplyDeleteHey Alexander! Love your post I really appreciate the end of this where you give some of your honest feedback on the use of AI and the while not inherent danger it carries but rather how much it can hamper a students long term development and growth through their academic carrier, love the post and keep up the great work!
ReplyDeleteYour explanation of AI assessment advantages together with its assessment disadvantages created a positive impression on me. The ability of AI to deliver immediate feedback creates a vital educational benefit because students can identify their errors by getting instant results instead of waiting for teacher assessment. The AI system lacks dependable performance according to your assessment because it derives information from unreliable and prejudiced sources. Your suggestion about teachers verifying AI outputs stands as an essential requirement for education.
ReplyDeleteYour viewpoint about restricting AI usage contains practical elements which I found impressive. Students benefit from using AI to correct grammar and locate sources but complete assignment completion through AI use results in negative consequences for their educational development. Your idea of requiring students to show how they used AI is a smart way to keep things honest and make sure people are still doing their own work.
Should schools implement a universal AI usage policy that applies to every classroom or should teachers establish their own AI regulations based on their specific subjects?
Hi Alexander, I really enjoyed reading your blog post! I really like your perspective on AI use on Assesments. I agree with you, I also think that if students rely too heavily on AI then they might start losing their skills and they aren't learning. But I think that allowing students to use AI but having to keep track of what the AI did and what the Student, I also like that you mentioned that there would be a limit to how much AI the students could use.
