A Network Connecting School Leaders From Around The Globe
AI systems can now score essays instantly and effectively, align feedback to rubrics, and significantly reduce teachers’ workloads. Critics argue that grading is not merely a technical act of measurement but a deeply human interaction that affirms student voice, effort, and growth. Their concern centers on what happens when students no longer write for a human reader, but instead for an algorithm. Should AI systems be used to evaluate student writing?
No, not at all
Only as a starting tool to aid the teacher
Why not? It's accurate and saves teachers valuable time

But even more left the district to become administrators in other districts. |
|
We have many assistant principals who were never teachers; they were academic counselors. In most cases, it really shows. They tend to be nervous around large groups of students and have little to no understanding of the classroom. |
|
Most used teaching as a short-term steppingstone and were not invested in teachers |
|
Now zero. At one time, many |

Mentors.net - a Professional Development Resource
Mentors.net was founded in 1995 as a professional development resource for school administrators leading new teacher induction programs. It soon evolved into a destination where both new and student teachers could reflect on their teaching experiences. Now, nearly thirty years later, Mentors.net has taken on a new direction—serving as a platform for beginning teachers, preservice educators, and
other professionals to share their insights and experiences from the early years of teaching, with a focus on integrating artificial intelligence. We invite you to contribute by sharing your experiences in the form of a journal article, story, reflection, or timely tips, especially on how you incorporate AI into your teaching
practice. Submissions may range from a 500-word personal reflection to a 2,000-word article with formal citations.
