Educators seek to combat AI challenges in the classroom
- Loudoun County Public Schools advanced the 'Use of Artificial Intelligence policy, Policy 5430' last Wednesday to regulate AI in classrooms in Virginia.
- The policy was developed to address concerns about unregulated use of generative AI by students and teachers, incorporating input and recommendations from the committee focused on special education.
- The policy restricts use to approved AI programs, requires teacher review of AI-assisted grading, mandates student transparency, and proposes an AI Ethics Board with disability representation.
- According to Turnitin, students have submitted over 22 million AI-generated papers, and newer AI tools can hallucinate facts, posing risks of academic dishonesty and misinformation.
- The policy will undergo annual review to adapt to evolving AI technology, suggesting ongoing oversight to balance AI integration with academic integrity concerns.

Growing number of college students turn to AI
A growing number of college students are reportedly turning to artificial intelligence for help with their coursework, but researchers are warning about the potential negative effects of relying on the technology.
