With all the interest in ChatGPT, a high school librarian on Long Island came up with a great idea. She designated today for students and staff to come to the LMC courtyard during their lunch periods for an informal chat on the topic. Here's the flyer she created:

LOTS of discussion about AI at my school among teachers and students. Had a fascinating discussion with 4th graders today! One of my history teachers shared this with me recently: Undetectable. Notice the "check for Al" option. Just today, our Associate Head of School shared a few paragraphs about AI and its use that will be included in our student handbook for next year. We're definitely discussing it, playing around with it, and thinking about what's next?

Hi Geri Dineen, 

Our district (CTECS) is taking a wait and see approach.  I hosted an afterschool workshop on ChatGPT for staff and had lively conversation with good number of attendees.  Most of the questions evolved around the hope of an "all knowing" AI checker for teachers.  This does not exist but ZeroGPT was suggested as a tool.  Students are actively using it for essays.  Good old fashion paper and pens were mentioned as one way to combat the in-class assignments.

Is anyone having discussions regarding the impact of ChatGPT or other AI tools on student work? Would love to hear what you're experiencing, and if (how) schools are addressing this.

Thank you!
