This shows me that their is a high likely chance they are just looking up the answers online/AI without even trying to understand the questions or how they come up with the answers. Even though I'm not required (because I'm part time) I still open office hours and the only ones who come to them are the ones who actively want to learn or people who know the material super well.

There are so many resources out there for anyone to learn anything, so the only real thing which separates people is whether they have any agency or desire to actually learn stuff. AI has made it easier than ever for knucklehead kids to survive while not knowing anything nor doing anything. Makes you question the purpose of putting those kids in school to begin with.

You need to master the basics in order for a smooth transition while you're in training. We need quality workers, not ones that think they can solve all their problems just googling or using ChatGPT....because in that case they might as well be replaced by AI and I don't want that to happen.

Not just that - if you can't bother to learn basic shit in a classroom with a book that tells you what to do, how can you be expected to solve any actual real-world problems?

Just like any year there's students that work hard and do well and students that really struggle with basic tasks. The proportion that give up quickly is higher.

One thing that I do see is that even the students who want to learn and succeed need more and more spoonfed to them. Even the students who want to excel will quit on a question the moment it's not something they've seen before.
