High school students should be able to opt out of AI written assignments without consequence and be given man made assignments with appropriate curriculum for a high school student. I’m a sophomore at Bandon Oregon’s high school and I and many others in this school have been given AI written assignments that are below the level we should be taught at, incomplete, inconsistent, and in many cases when we have questions about the assignment the teacher or substitute is unable to help because they themselves don’t know because they didn’t write the assignments. Generative AI also supports the following so I don't think schools should be supporting this.
- Racism
- Violence towards women
- Homophobia
- Child predators
- Suicide
- Murder
- Environmental destruction
- Legal grey areas with copyright
AI is a tool not a substitute for a teacher. I have students in the district who speak constantly about how AI has become a crutch that Bandon School district uses because did doesn't have teachers. Glad to see students standing up for their own education! I support this.
