Two big threads today: schools are getting serious about screen limits, and professors are fighting AI cheating with AI oral exams. LA's new policy is the most prescriptive yet, and the AFT wants federal curbs. Meanwhile, a clever experiment using voice AI to test student knowledge shows one way assessment might evolve.
Two major moves to limit student screen use landed today, signaling growing consensus but different approaches.
LA Unified, the nation's second-largest district, passed strict screen-time rules that take effect faster than similar policies elsewhere. This is the most concrete regulatory move yet on student device use.
AFT President Randi Weingarten argues schools face an attention crisis and needs widespread curbs on AI and tech. She stops short of a 'Chromebook bonfire' but wants federal action.
While districts ban devices, some classrooms are using AI to fight AI cheating in creative ways.
Professors caught students submitting AI-polished work, so they built a personalized oral exam using ElevenLabs' voice AI. It's a scalable way to verify understanding without banning tools.
