[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You shouldn't really turn off YT.  A lot of kids rely on it as a secondary source of learning for many subjects.  It's just unwise to limit technology in these ways.  Yes, students misuse technology and they spend a lot of time scrolling and surfing, but ompletely removing a learning method from the toolbox isn't smart either.

To the PP whose kid was using AI to make that query, what do you really find wrong with it?  Presumably their teacher will also test on the content, so if they are using AI or Google to make these searches, why is that a bad thing?  They are taking a task that may have taken them a few hours to do but doing it in minutes.  Isn't that what we need them to do heading into a future with AI?  If they're writing a paper with AI, those that will stand out are the ones who apply critical reasoning skills while building the essay content.  Honestly, I think we're barking up the wrong tree.

I disagree with you on all fronts.

You can turn off YouTube as you see fit, and in my years with two kids in FCPS I have had 1 singular instance of my kids using YouTube for learning. One.

If you can't think then you aren't learning, and "learning to use AI" is not a skill that needs to be taught in school like this. Otherwise the task would be "provide the prompt you used to get the answer to the following question". But that's not the task.

You have a very flawed view of how learning works, and how educational technology should be incorporated. [/quote]
