Kids aren’t as sneaky as they think they are.

They do try, as Holly Distefano has seen in her middle school English language arts classes. When she poses a question to her seventh graders over her school’s learning platform and watches the live responses roll in, there are times when too many are suspiciously similar. That’s when she knows students are using an artificial intelligence tool to write an answer.

“I really think that they have become so accustomed to it, they lack confidence in their own writing,” Distefano, who teaches in Texas, says. “In addition to just so much pressure on them to be successful, to get good grades, really a lot is expected of them.”

Distefano is sympathetic — but still expects better from her students.
