I think banning anything is ultimately ineffective in the long term. Students will find a way. It is human nature to exploit, that is one of our great gifts that differentiates us from primates. Besides, take home assignments and open note tests/homework are lazy and ineffective forms of teaching. Oral assignments, group assignments, and hands on learning have always been superior. I am glad ChatGPT is lighting a fire under our education system’s ass to make change because it has become archaic in the technological era. If America does not fix our education system, we are going to fall as the world superpower. It’s merely a matter of on what timeframe.

I don’t support banning as others have stated. I taught college students full-time for 11 years and now teach as an adjunct management instructor. Students will find a work around. It’s an opportunity to work with AI instead of against AI. I primarily teach HR courses and find in class case studies, scenarios, gaming, and simulations keep students curious and engaged. However, I advocate for full-time faculty at all levels. More is asked of educators and rethinking a class after it’s planned for the semester + service + research if on tenure track is daunting. I’m excited to learn how others are working with AI instead of resisting AI.
