Them: AI will summarize all kinds of stuff so you don’t have to read it. But it will hallucinate and invent stuff so you’ll need to verify all the citations and interpretations before you can trust the summary.

One student told me that it was more work to use ChatGPT than it was just to do my assignments. :-)

How do you keep them from just pasting the sources into AI tools or using a browser plug in?

I have weekly discussions where they have to incorporate 2 of 5 primary sources plus lecture and textbook. They have to complete a graphic organizer for each primary source before writing the discussion post. If you’ve completed the graphic organizers, you might as well just write the post.
