Colleagues: TurnItIn and Lightside are building an automated - TopicsExpress

Colleagues: TurnItIn and Lightside are building an automated feedback system. Based on the work weve done at WIDE in similar areas of machine learning, I am pretty sure it will do what they claim. And it will have a lot of appeal on campuses as a result. The trouble is, even if it works, it will succeed by making the means into the ends. That is, it will succeed by training students fairly narrowly to produce texts with specific kinds of features. Most likely, those features will represent a handful of standards: Common Core, WPA, etc. Those standards are meant to be indicators of learning, not outcomes in their own right. At WIDE, weve developed an alternative to this approach in Eli Review. Weve seen the moment we are about to face coming for some time. As we read the evidence, the better way to student improvement in writing is reciprocal peer learning. Students learn to give feedback as well as give it, and they learn how to adapt to novel communication situations, including those that require multimodal responses. This is going to sound alarmist, but I mean it to be more of a simple statement of fact. The robots are coming. And they really are coming for our jobs.
