The Code of Ethics for Professional Teachers

your duties. As a practice, a teacher who plans to have a leave of
absence must find a substitute teacher to maintain the continuity

values.

A teacher shall place have self-discipline as the primary principles of

personal behavior in all relationships with others and in all situations.

one’s action and being
accountable for students’ academic performance.

ASSESEEMENT OF STUDENTS’ OUTPUTS IN TODAY’S AI GENERATION

There are three strategies to assess the students’ output using AI.
First, “"Announce in advance" refers to a teacher's need to inform the class about
his or her policies regarding the use of AI, including any permitted uses and
associated punishments. Secondly, "Be Discerning" suggests that when your
students use AI in their work, they shouldn't take it personally and mark it as zero.
Instead, go over and gather all of the AI-generated outputs and bring them to your
attention, particularly if you haven't made your AI policy in the class. Third,
“confirm mastery” When you observe your students presenting their work or
reports using artificial intelligence (AI). Ask them questions to find out if the goals
have been reached rather than interjecting yourself.
