    As I posted on another comment:

    Are they learning anything when you take the fun exercise away from the motivated kids?

    That’s more my issue.

    If the other kids are using AI fix THAT. Don’t take away the fun projects.

      When learning something like derivatives my teacher made me do it the painful slow way of doing through graphing as opposed to using a formula. Afterwards we were allowed to use formulas and then later just our calculators.

      Same thing applies to coding. AI bypasses learning fundamentals if the intent of the class is to teach the basics. If people run it through AI then there’s little reason for the class to exist and funds are better spend elsewhere.
