About this episode

The episode discusses the importance of writing and the impact of AI tools on the writing process in education.

Writing, as an activity, is an extremely productive human activity. AI tools that enhance output, encourage effort, or eliminate the labor of the writing process are changing the educational landscape. We should be clear about what we gain from writing before off-loading this activity to an external agency or tool. So, what is writing all about, and why is developing the ability to write well such a core component of education? Listen in to hear Russ, Peter and Justin discuss the perils and pitfalls of prose production.
