Debate Brief

Cross-examination prompts

  • ?What evidence shows students learn argument skills when AI drafts their sentences?

AI in College Courses

The clash is whether AI assists learning and drafting or undermines skill development and integrity when policies are unclear.

Pro

Allow AI with disclosure and instructor-guided use because it supports drafting, feedback, and access.

Con

Restrict AI in graded work because verification of learning and fair enforcement are too weak.
