I'm thinking the only way people will be able to do schoolwork without cheating now is going to be to make them sit in a monitored room and finish it there.
How is this kind of testing relevant anymore? Isn't it creating an unrealistic situation, given the brave new world of AI everywhere?
What do you think testing is for? It's to show what you know/have learned
Education and learning are two different things. School tests are to repeat back what has been educated to you. Meaningful learning tends to be internally motivated and AI is unlikely to fulfill that aspect.
This is the purpose of essay questions.
