TOEFL Write for Academic Discussion
TOEFL Write for Academic Discussion Профессор: Many universities now use AI tools to generate personalized learning materials. Some argue this improves education; others worry about critical thinking. State your view. Студент А: AI tutors adapt to each student's pace, so weaker learners get more time and stronger ones are never bored. Студент B: If a machine always explains things the easy way, students stop struggling - and struggling is how real learning happens. I side with B, though I understand A's enthusiasm. Personalized pacing is a genuine benefit: no student should be left behind because the lecture moved too fast. Having said that, adaptive tools cannot replicate the productive discomfort of wrestling with a problem on your own. When I was learning Python on my programming course, the moments that taught me most were not the ones where a tool handed me a solution, but the ones where I debugged my own code for hours. If AI smooths out every difficulty, it quietly removes those moments. My suggestion is a middle path: use AI for practice and feedback, but let students attempt core problems unassisted first. That way technology supports learning without replacing the effort that makes learning stick. Обратите внимание на механику: в первом предложении Анна отдаёт должное позиции A, затем having said that повернула разговор к нашей стороне, а личный пример с Python - тот самый конкретный, живой support, который AI-оценщик любит: не абстрактное AI is bad for thinking, а проверяемый кейс из опыта. Анна, раз вы прошли курс Python, предлагаю отработать конструкцию на «вашей» территории. Напишите короткий пост (120-140 слов) для Academic Discussion на промпт: Should coding be a mandatory school subject? - и используйте в нём два раза having said that. Пришлите мне черновик - разберу по критериям и покажу, где уступка звучит органично, а где её можно усилить.
