Student AI Usage

Published on November 13, 2023

I really hate that everyone is worried about students using AI to cheat. But, with that being all the rage, I’m introducing the AI Usage Reflection Survey - a practical tool designed with today’s digital learning environment in mind. As we navigate the ever-evolving landscape of technology in education, it’s important to guide our students in using artificial intelligence (AI) as a means to enrich their learning, not just as a workaround for academic challenges.

This survey is a step towards achieving that goal. It encourages students to pause and reflect on how they’re incorporating AI into their assignments. Are they leveraging these tools to deepen their understanding or merely to complete tasks more quickly? This reflection is key in helping them become more mindful about their learning process and the role of technology in it.

Moreover, the survey opens up a dialogue about the use of AI in classrooms. We’re aiming for an environment where students feel comfortable sharing their experiences with AI, both the good and the challenging parts. This transparency can inform us about how AI tools are impacting their learning and help us tailor our teaching strategies accordingly.

In short, the AI Usage Reflection Survey isn’t just about tracking tool usage; it’s about fostering a culture of thoughtful, purposeful use of technology in learning. I’m looking forward to seeing how this can positively influence our educational approaches and student outcomes.
