Today we are exploring a compelling and deeply insightful piece written by William Liang, a high school student and education journalist from San Jose, California. His article offers a rare and refreshingly candid glimpse from the student’s side of the classroom. Titled simply as a firsthand account, this piece doesn’t appear in a major newspaper or journal, but its message might just be one of the most important ones circulating in education circles right now. Liang brings us into a high school chemistry class, one of many across the country, where an AI training session was recently held to teach students how to use ChatGPT “responsibly.” From the outset, he peels back the layers of policy versus practice and highlights the gaping chasm between what schools hope students are doing with AI and what students are actually doing with it.Dan’s new book Infinite Education is out nowFind Dan on:LinkedInXBlueSkyFacebookInstagramNewsletterAI-generated content can make mistakes
