IEN will be taking a break over New Year’s and returning in January with our annual post scanning the education headlines for stories looking back at last year and looking ahead with predictions for the new year. In the meantime, please revisit some of our most viewed stories of the year along with some of the interviews that we did. We hope you have a restful, peaceful, and healthy New Year!
“ChatGPT’s strength in language and conventions show that it is a clear writer, capable of crafting fluent, grammatically sound prose. The chatbot either met or exceeded standards in both these categories for all 27 essays submitted. The AI has the most room for improvement in its development of ideas. The graders’ written feedback reveals that it sometimes fails to support its claims with reasons or evidence and, in a few instances, makes assertions that are flat out false.” – Michael B. Horn & Daniel Curtis from “To Teach Better Writing Don’t Ban ChatGPT. Instead, Embrace It”
