Grade 9: Assembly - Using AI Technology Wisely

March 31, 2023

SHSID freshmen students gathered in the lecture hall of Zhentao Building on March 28, Tuesday, for the usual weekly assembly. Osmond from 9(2) talked about the role artificial intelligence could play in aiding students with their academics. Osmond mainly compared the differences between using AI for passive and active research, illustrating his point through a paper he had to write for a psychology competition. Passive research is the process in which a student uses AI to write a paper for himself/herself. Active research, meanwhile, is when students use AI to add evidence to their own points and modify their papers. Passive research means the user will be unable to learn during the project since the AI does everything. More importantly, it violates the academic integrity policy of school. Comparatively, active research allows users to reflect and learn during this process and write a text with a unique perspective.

To conclude, Osmond explained the benefits AI could bring students. By personalizing the student-learning experience and automating administrative tasks, AI truly has the potential to transform the way we teach and learn in the future. His speech was received by an enthusiastic round of applause.
