AI has changed her daily work more than corpora ever did: brainstorming speaking prompts and drafting written feedback that she then reviews. But adoption should be step by step, and the real problem is assignments that invite copying.
What worked / what failed
- Worked: generating speaking questions; first drafts of feedback on written work (hours instead of days, always reviewed).
- Writing clear instructions for the tool is a teacher skill.
- Failed: asking the model to rank 11 pairs of student translations.
- Her caution: don’t flood students with AI-made content.
Open problem
Students will use AI anyway, so assignments and assessment need redesign. She offers no solution.
Apply in my context (Claude)
- Redesign test: if a task can be completed well by pasting it into a chatbot, change the conditions (in class, oral defence, process evidence, personal data) rather than banning the tool.
