This semester I’ve noticed a trend across writing assignments my students have been handing in a lot of work with the pronoun I as a lower case letter.
Sometimes it’s every time they use the pronoun, but other times it’s only some of them. I’m not sure if this is a new weird AI thing or something else.
Has anyone else seen this?
Student reached out last week asking about their grade on about 7 discussion posts, a quiz, and an assignment. I asked what section they were in. Their email came in Friday around 11:00PM. Got an email today asking why I had not responded yet
I emailed back this evening. Letting them know the grade on one of the discussions and that I am still finishing grades on the assignment. I let them know they hadn’t submitted any of the other work.
They wrote back saying there must be an error because they have receipts for those weeks. I checked th Brightspace logs, and they hadn’t submitted any of those and they had not even read a single discussion post.
If they push further I’ll tell them to speak with IT
I’m open to any input here.
I teach online asynchronous. I know all the reasons that we should be doing in person evaluations, but it’s not an option here (I guess that’s the one kind of input I don’t need. I read this board daily so I know that discussion).
The midterm (multiple choice) was overrun with AI. I’ve never had it so obvious or so bad. For the final, I want to change format a little and would like thoughts.
It will still be multiple choice, but students will now need to cite a page in the textbook justifying their response. They just need to put a page number. I know this adds work to me proofing half the exam, but I am fine with that.
The his way, the students who rush through with AI can only get 50%, which I’m sure is about where they would be if they didn’t use Ai
I’m just wondering if I’m overlooking anything. Like do w textbooks have page numbers?
