Teachers Are Trying to Make AI Work for Them

wired.com Sofia Barnett 2025-11-18 06:00:00

One day last spring, in a high school classroom in Texas, students were arguing about who to kill off first. It was a thought experiment with a sci-fi premise: A global zombie outbreak has decimated major cities. One hundred frozen embryos meant to reboot humanity are safe in a bomb shelter, but the intended adult caretakers never made it. Instead, 12 random civilians stumbled in. There’s only enough food and oxygen for seven. The students had to decide who would die and who would live to raise

Is Economics education fit for the 21st Century?

The first quarter of the 21st century has seen seismic shifts in the politics, society, and economy of the United Kingdom. As economics thinkers and graduates, Rethinking Economics is concerned that economics education remains out of step with these shifts. What is taught in university classrooms informs how society perceives and will tackle these challenges, from engaging in climate science to the reality of Britain’s colonial past.

The school year starts soon for many students, and ChatGPT has announced a new “study mode” that aims to prevent—or at least, encourage against—students taking homework shortcuts. The mode is designed around the Socratic method, so when activated, OpenAI’s generative AI chatbot rejects direct requests for answers, instead guiding the user with open-ended questions.
