"Research released this month suggests that AI has become fully embedded in how students respond to homework and other assignments. The percentage of high school students who report using generative AI for schoolwork is growing, increasing from an already high 79% to 84% between January and May of this year, according to surveys conducted by College Board, the nonprofit that manages much of the nation's standardized tests, including the SAT."
"AI has given her an overpowering reason to consider homework pointless. "They're not doing it," she said of students and homework. "They're not doing it." Other teachers, however, continue to assign homework, which introduces a new tension in the learning relationship, said 10th-grader Aaliyah Herron, 15, who is one of Bolden's students at City Honors International Preparatory High School. In other classes, she finds herself having to prove her innocence given the quality of her work."
Generative AI use among high school students has increased, with reported usage rising from 79% to 84% between January and May. AI can solve math problems with step-by-step explanations, summarize and analyze reading passages, and produce essays that are increasingly difficult to detect. Some teachers find homework pointless because students rely on AI, and some students avoid AI to prevent wrongful accusations. Other teachers continue to assign homework, creating tensions in classroom relationships and complicating assessment and trust between students and instructors.
