Teacher swaps coding tests for AI problem-solving talks
Original: I replaced traditional coding tests with real conversations about how my students solve problems using AI.
A teacher reports replacing traditional coding exams with one-on-one conversations about how students approach problems using AI. The change reflects a broader debate in education over how to assess skills when tools like ChatGPT can write code, with some educators arguing understanding a student's reasoning matters more than testing memorised syntax. Reactions are likely to focus on whether this approach can scale and prevent misuse.
Why now: Educators are actively debating how assessment should change now that AI can complete conventional coding tests.
