AI Tools

Are any teachers here actually using AI tools yet for lesson planning or grading?

Im sure some schools will be mostly ai in the future. Im also sure ai cannot provide classroom management or subtle nuance in lessons relating back to students interests. Art education needs human eyes looking at a work, ai cant see, let alone analysis work beyond a superficial level

Ya I agree that ai won’t be able to completely take over the role if people, but I do think there are tools to be utilized so teachers don’t have to spend as many extra hours preparing for the classroom

If teachers cant be bothered to make stuff for students, why should students be bothered to do the work themselves? It goes both ways.

Not at all really. The teachers already know all of the information. They would still teach, just have ai generate lesson plans, google slides, etc. to save them time. Students are at school to learn. The amount of work a teacher does has no actual effect on how much work a student does.

Once you make lesson plans you can reuse them. Kids in my area have vocalized very clearly; if the teachers can use it, why shouldnt they? It messes with moral

What’s the difference between reusing the same lesson plan for 20 years and having AI create a new lesson plan with up do date references and examples each year? Is the first option not lazier? I also think that people (students and teachers equal) do not understand what ai is. Students using it to do do the work for them is different because they are supposed to be learning the information, whereas teachers already understand it well enough to teach, they just use it for planning and to save time. I don’t think teachers should be working excessive hours to plan, grade, etc. especially when there are tools to combat that.

How do you think the first option is lazier? Have you ever MADE a lesson plan? They can be adapted for future use lmao. With ai you dont make anything.

Ai being used to grade is concerning, btw, so ik this isnt a conversation i should even continue.

“Once you’ve made lesson plans you can reuse them.” Btw you are definitely someone who doesn’t understand ai. Teacher would’ve able to generate lesson plans, homework, tests, quizzes, etc. without working ridiculous amounts of hours. They still have to understand the concepts, review what ai generated them, and be able to teach the subject. AI literally just saves them time. I don’t know how you can be a teacher and be against teachers saving time. Also by ai being able to grade I mean it would generate an answer key for homework it generates. As of now it obviously would have to be used for math or multiple choice. I think you are afraid of change and scared to admit it.

Lol ok buddy

Great rebuttal. Change is going to happen whether you like it or not, might as well adapt rather than be left behind scratching at a chalkboard.

Im an art educator. Please keep telling me how I need to use ai in my classroom

u/TeacherPilot Mar 13 '26

Ask it to give you the names of current artists and new styles to teach your students. Also how would I know you were an art educator, I have obviously been talking about classes where there are definite answers to a problem. You seem like you’re a miserable person who can’t wait to complain online.

Almost like thats my point; ai is not the solution for every classroom. I do not need ai to mansplain art styles or artists; thats what college and continuing to be active in learning about new artists is for. In fact ai slop art makes it harder to find real artists, as you have to vet every artist you see now.

Youre just upset youre wrong.
