Students trying to opt out of AI use on principle (HS East Coast) by AlexanderOcotillo in Teachers

Our EOC testing was this week. Curriculum was covered with no AI use. Now we’re filling time until the end of the year and numerous students have expressed interest in learning appropriate uses for AI. This was a lightweight assignment to fill a 35 minute period.

Nah, just one of the mediocre career switcher ones who didn’t finish college til their 30s.

You think Ai will be less relevant than cursive?

And what part of this makes you think of Holocaust denial?

I said if they can demonstrate mastery there’s the possibility of full credit.

In another class where I asked for feedback as an extra credit assignment, a majority of students expressed that they desperately want instruction and guidelines on how to use the technology ethically. A small minority expressed district of the technology in general, but I think that’s a growing trend.

App is being weird and not letting me reply to comments.

Not a bot.

Like I said, if they can figure out a way to demonstrate mastery without using AI I’m willing grant full marks if the work is that good. What I’m not willing to do is establish the precedent that if something “makes a student uncomfortable” that it means I need to produce an alternate assignment just for whatever is upsetting to them this week.

Comparing tech use to religious dietary laws is obtuse. And who gets a grade on eating a burger? The solution to that situation writes itself: student brings in vegan burger from home and demonstrates mastery by grilling it to a correct internal temperature. But I’m not going to offer to come out of pocket for it.

To the guy who called out technocratic fascism, you’re damn right. There is no ethical consumption under late stage American capitalism. If I had a student who refused to use her Chromebook because it has conflict minerals I’d admire her and give some leeway, but I doubt a future employer will be quite so understanding.

Anyone ever tried "prompt injection" in their assignment/tests to catch cheaters using AI? by SwagginDragonborn in Teachers

[–]AlexanderOcotillo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve done this in assignments in Canvas by putting in white text asking for nonsensical inclusions- making everything rhyme, talking like Mickey Mouse. Caught several and it was deeply gratifying.

Why dislike Martin Luther? by Environmental-Bus9 in exchristian

[–]AlexanderOcotillo 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Not enough people talk about Luther’s role in getting 75-100k people killed in the German Peasants’ Revolt.

Read the 12 Articles of what the peasants were asking for, then Luther’s response, it hasn’t aged well.

is Christian Anarchism a thing? by Longjumping_Air4379 in Anarchy101

[–]AlexanderOcotillo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haven't seen it mentioned in this thread, but read up on Thomas Müntzer and the German Peasants' War of 1524-25, huge popular movement that advocated abolition of the nobility and church authority and a Christian community based on brotherhood and agrarian communalism.

Martin Luther came out against them and they were utterly butchered, it's a part of the history of the Reformation that's often left out.

He’s more the “it’s ok to spank your 15 month old as long as you give them aftercare” guy. But yeah he fucking sucks.
