In reaction to the online assertion that “teachers are forbidden to employ AI in lesson planning,” the National Education Rumor Refutation Platform, along with education departments in numerous regions, has made it clear that this claim is a misinterpretation of the policy. Actually, the essence of the recently implemented regulations in many areas is to “promote appropriate use, not overuse,” with the goal of defining the line between AI-assisted teaching and AI-replacing teaching. Both national and local policies advocate for teachers to judiciously utilize AI technology to enhance their teaching, explicitly stating that teachers still bear the primary responsibility for instructional design. AI is a legitimate supplementary tool designed to assist teachers in reducing their workload and boosting efficiency. The notion of a “ban on AI in lesson planning” does not correspond with the policy’s original intention.
