On This Day

Henry VIII declared himself the head of the Church of England

Henry VIII declared himself the head of the Church of England, thus breaking with the authority of the Roman Catholic Church. This decision led to the English Reformation and had a significant impact on English and world history

Poll Of the Week

Should students in high school and universities be allowed to use Generative AI to write academic papers?

This question reflects a critical debate in modern education as AI tools like ChatGPT and others become increasingly accessible. Advocates argue that AI can be a valuable educational resource, helping students enhance their writing, organize ideas, and understand complex concepts. On the other hand, critics worry about plagiarism, loss of originality, and over-reliance on technology, potentially undermining students' ability to develop critical thinking and writing skills.

Yes, with no restrictions – Generative AI can be a legitimate tool for writing academic papers.
Yes, but only as a support tool – AI can assist with ideas or editing but not write the entire paper.
Only for specific cases – Allow AI for certain subjects or non-graded assignments.
No, it should be prohibited – Writing should remain entirely the student’s work to uphold academic integrity.
