Agree or disagree? When students are old enough to use AI tools, they can begin applying these supports to their writing. An educator’s job is to help them do that effectively, responsibly, and reflectively.

Instead of policing whether AI was used, educators should focus on how it is used to help students learn and produce quality work.

3 Things Educators Can Do To Ensure Content Is Accurate (And Not Just AI Slop)

Check Sources - Just because content has a lot of views or pops up at the top of Google rankings doesn’t mean it is real. “Companies are paying Google to be at the top of the search, whether they're presenting factual information or not,” says Cori Coburn, Educational Technology Support Manager for Austin Community College District in Texas. Users need to dig down to see who is presenting the information and if it’s from a legitimate source or not.

Rely On Your Critical Thinking Skills - If content seems too good or fantastic to be true, it probably is. Says Adam Nemeroff, Assistant Provost for Innovations in Learning, Teaching and Technology at Quinnipiac University: “It’s important for people to keep in mind that you have to be skeptical about everything you're seeing, especially in the social media spaces that aren't moderated and and increasingly being less moderated.”

Look For Real People - Platforms that feature actual humans and human-generated comments and videos, such Reddit, can generally be more trustworthy information ecosystems. “If you go to any of these AI tools, such as Google, and ask, ‘How do I fix my washing machine?’ it takes you to some Reddit subreddit of people who are mechanically inclined and have gone through the process, know and developed the expertise, and have an answer that has been upvoted and validated,” says Nemeroff.
