This post is tremendously helpful in laying out what’s gone wrong with writing instruction since the early 2000s and why a return to focusing on the individual intention, responsibility, and authenticity of a student writer’s work - their growth and learning over time - matters so much when it comes to incorporating generative AI in the classroom. Terry, thank you for bringing together your wealth of knowledge here (I’ll have more to say on your site). Nick, thanks for publishing this educational venue on AI, which I’m very happy to have found - a humanist approach to how AI can tap social and cultural aspects of authorship really speaks to my own writing now about AI and the threat (or hope) it poses for self-expression.
