MOSI 1 DEBAT BAHASA INGGRIS - SMA AWARDS 2024 - SMAN 1 TUREN - KABUPATEN MALANG

Summary of the Debate (SMA Awards 2024 – MOSI 1, Bahasa Inggris)

The video contains a school debate about the motion: “This house believes that the school curriculum should highly integrate the use of AI (e.g., ChatGPT) during the learning process.” The speakers oppose the motion.

Opposition Key Arguments

• Risk of student dependency and addiction: Heavy AI integration may make students rely on AI instead of developing independent thinking and learning, potentially leading to addiction and reduced effort.
• Cheating and loss of genuine skills: If AI can generate essays, reports, and answers, students may avoid completing tasks themselves, resulting in copy-paste work without critical thinking.
• Negative impact on future generations: Widespread AI use in assignments could produce a generation that doesn’t develop analytical and creative thinking, lowering educational quality.
• AI is not a full replacement for tutoring: While AI may be cheaper than human tutoring, the debaters argue that human guidance is more effective and ethically grounded.
• Education should focus on critical thinking, creativity, and ethics: Rather than integrating AI directly into learning, students should be strengthened in their ability to think critically and understand technology ethically.
• Alternative approach: develop AI in other sectors: One speaker suggests focusing AI development in fields such as medicine or technology creation, rather than having students use AI to complete schoolwork.
• “Proof burden” on AI integration: The opposition asks proponents to prove that AI integration can truly prevent cheating, arguing that cheating happens even without heavy AI use.
• Evidence from real cases: They cite an example from South Carolina, USA, where a philosophy student reportedly used ChatGPT to write an essay and was caught—used to support the claim that AI undermines academic integrity.
• Teacher disengagement concern: Even if AI helps reduce grading workload, it may encourage teachers to become more passive, while exams and assessments remain important learning opportunities.

Conclusion / Stance

Overall, the opposing side argues that heavy AI integration would harm the learning process, weaken academic integrity, and reduce students’ development of independent critical thinking. They conclude that the motion should be rejected.
