Do teachers spot ? Evaluating the detectability of AI-generated texts among student essays https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2666920X24000109
"Generative AI can simulate student essay writing in a way that is undetectable for teachers.
•Teachers are overconfident in their source identification.
•AI-generated essays tend to be assessed more positively than student-written texts."

Jeg har anmeldt bogen "Artificial Intelligence and Academic Integrity" Det bedste ved bogen er, at den så klart viser sammenhængen mellem akademisk integritet og de studerendes læreprocesser. Dette peger også på, at den måde, studerende bliver bedømt på, måske ikke er særlig hensigtsmæssig, da der ofte ikke er sammenhæng mellem uddannelsens mål og de måder, hvorpå man vurderer dem.

Anmeldelse af: 60+ Ideas - ChatGPT Assignments to Use in Your Classroom Today af Yee, Whittington, Doggette & Uttich https://www.kulturkapellet.dk/sagprosaanmeldelse.php?id=1052 "Generativ kunstig intelligens bør i sammenhæng med uddannelse udelukkende anvendes som en del af studerendes læringsprocesser og ikke til at generere output som ubearbejdet inddrages i studerendes afleveringer eller eksamener. Som bogen også demonstrerer, så skal værktøjerne styrke læringen og ikke være en erstatning for den." #skolechat #GenKI #AIEd

There's a language gap between theory and practice in AI and education. Are you up for the challenge of bridging it? #AIinEd #AIed #AIPioneers https://pontydysgu.eu/2023/11/searching-for-the-ai-bridge-builders/

Wonderful sessions with Digico Global this morning on AI literacy. In my session we explored practical exercises to teach the basics of AI in a simple digestible way, and fostering and maintaining motivation amongst learners.
