I read apps and can’t necessarily tell if the student used AI. I don’t think some posters here realize how strong AI writing can be if one continues to instruct AI on how to make changes in content, structure, tone, and/or grammar.
There are also many students who are excellent writers and don’t need much editing help from a parent, HS counselor or private counselor. There is no way for readers to tell the difference, no matter how much training we receive.
As a counselor I received beautifully done essays from students who were strong writers…typically very few edits needed. How sad if a reader were to think the essay wasn’t student generated when it was.
