How students see teachers who use AI.

My students who love AI are the students who are addicted to their phones, do everything they can to get away with doing the least amount of work possible, and/ or feel insecure about their comprehension or writing skills and use it to avoid the struggle. My students know that I don’t allow AI in my class. (I’ve implemented a strict cell phone policy and we do everything on paper now.) They know that I don’t allow it for a reason and that I see it as a mostly bad thing.I let my students know that every teacher has their own policy and that’s fine. I’ve seen a trend with students who dislike AI. They are the artist types, the kids who like to read, who care about social issues, who are deep thinkers and like to learn. Of course there are exceptions to both groups, but these are things I’ve noticed. Kids have started venting to me about teachers who use AI. (And like everything, I’m sure there are teachers who are using it thoughtfully and aren’t overdoing it, and these same students might not even know AI was used.) I don’t say anything negative about these teachers but I also try to validate their concerns before moving on to another topic. I agree with these students though. They seem offended or disappointed in their teachers using AI or requiring them to use AI. There’s a loss of respect.
