“I Can Tell It’S Fake”: What Generation Alpha Is Telling Us About Ai And 5 Tips For Educators, Charlotte Jones-Roberts Aug 2026

“I Can Tell It’S Fake”: What Generation Alpha Is Telling Us About Ai And 5 Tips For Educators, Charlotte Jones-Roberts

FDLA Journal

Institutional responses to generative artificial intelligence (AI) in higher education have largely emphasized detection, surveillance, and academic integrity enforcement. These approaches often assume that students lack the ability to recognize AI-generated content or are predisposed to misuse it. However, emerging classroom observations and generational research suggest that members of Generation Alpha (Gen Alpha) demonstrate intuitive forms of AI literacy grounded in authenticity detection, ethical awareness, and skepticism toward low-effort outputs. Drawing on student discourse, research on authentic assessment, digital citizenship, and self-regulated learning, this conceptual analysis reframes AI pedagogy from a detection problem to a design challenge. Five recurring student …
