College instructor turns to typewriters to curb AI-written work | Hacker News

A college instructor is moving assignments toward typewriters, paper, and in-person quizzes to make AI-assisted writing harder.

The approach includes printed materials and workflows that reduce easy access to tools like Google Docs during drafting and submission.

The goal is to protect academic integrity and better assess each student’s own understanding and writing ability.

The example highlights how universities and instructors are changing evaluation methods in response to generative AI.
