The Future of Artificial Intelligence in Post-Primary Education: Discussion

11:00 am

Ms Leah Jennings:

Some of the more experienced teachers would probably be able to tell between authentic work from students. They are used to seeing students' work and what they have to present, over artificial intelligence and how perfect their writing is.

The majority of younger teachers also can recognise AI as they have grown up with it and as they are becoming teachers, the AI is with them. They can tell, especially if they have studied AI. If there was a course for them to be able to tell the difference between students' work and AI, it would make their work easier.
