I teach in Seattle colleges and I can tell you that plenty of our kids can’t write a complete sentence. I suspect plenty of them struggle with reading, too. Lots of people blame the pandemic for these problems but I would point towards phones, devices, and ever-creeping tech in the classroom as the real culprit.
Adding AI to the classroom will achieve only one outcome: our kids will lose their critical thinking and information literacy skills and AI companies will mine our children for training data.
No educator who actually understands this reality and the technology would be advocating for this.
The leadership of SPS should be ashamed.
