If the rules of the classroom/school is "No AI to help write your essays", then the child shouldn't.1. The child should be using AI
2. That doesn't mean AI writes the paper, but it certainly can help with ideas, bullet points, spelling and grammar, and the order of things. It will help his grade.
3. ALL of my staff are told to use AI... they all do... and they all appreciate it.
For teachers to tell kids not to use AI is stupid.
If the students are given directions on how to use it effectively, then go for it. But, that hasn't happened yet.
This is how theis particular teacher handles the situation:
1. Student emails paper to teacher.
2. Teacher copy paste the essay into a AI finder website.
3. If the website says AI wrote it, the kid fails.
However,
The students have the same access to the AI finder website.
Students copy paste their ChatGPT written essay into the AI finder website.
Students then change the essay just enough to throw off the website when they paste it a second time.
Whole process takes a few minutes.
Teacher thinks he is diligent.
Kids know they will get an A.
District Office won't step up to give guidelines. They have different priorities
