This semester has been wild. Started noticing essays with this weird perfect structure but zero personality. You know that feeling when something's off but you can't prove it? That was me for weeks.Finally decided to run everything through GPTZero and boom. Eight papers lit up like christmas trees. The weird part? These weren't my struggling students. These were solid B students who probably could've written decent papers themselves.
What really got me was the confrontation. Half admitted it immediately, couple tried to argue, one actually thanked me for catching them early in the semester instead of finals. Made me realize how normalized this has become.
Now I'm requiring drafts and having students explain their thesis in person. Already seeing improvement in actual understanding even if the writing quality dropped a bit. Sometimes messier authentic work beats polished fake content.
