Former professor of practice Rachel Kane says she came to suspect that at least 90% of her online students used AI for some or all of their work. That is her estimate from teaching, not a measured rate, but it captures a real classroom headache: spotting a polished answer is not the same as knowing who did the learning.
Why it mattersIn a CNET commentary, Kane also describes a student who admitted using ChatGPT, promised to stop, then did it again. She says her university was still grappling with how to respond. The awkward bit is that a grade can look convincing while leaving the teacher with little idea what a student can actually do.
Discuss: Should schools redesign assessment around work students must explain or perform themselves, even if that means less traditional homework?
