The difference is, for developing minds, you need to actually use your brain and challenge yourself to be more capable thinker for the future. If you use AI tools to do your thinking, you will be dumb
It isn't hypocritical at all. The students are there to learn. The teacher is there to teach. Students using AI hinders learning. Teachers using AI may enhance teaching (if only by giving the teacher more time to focus on other things).
When my kid comes home asking why the teacher can use something she can’t, I can try explaining that to her. I know I used to get pissed when the teacher wouldn’t show her work but made me. I saw it as unfair and even after having it explained to me it still pissed me off until I got older. It’s a principle expectation of equality. Seeing the teacher is doing something they are banning you from should be avoided. Sure use AI as a tool wherever but avoid doing it in front of students you’re banning from using. I feel like hypocrisy isn’t the right word.
Using your logic, that’s like saying students cant use calculators on their math test, but it would be hypocritical for a teacher to check their work using a calculator, lmao.
It’s not hypocritical at all. The stance isn’t to not use AI completely, it’s that they cannot use ai for just this specific assignment.
If they couldnt make one, they shouldnt have done any image for gods sake, and if they were that desperate to use an image they shoulve found one online
Teachers aren't learning how to grade. They don't lose anything by having ai grade simple things anymore than when they used scantrons to grade things.

Which is why a lot of students retaliate by using AI. It's a full circle of spite.
