Certified AI-Free Skills and Knowledge: doing all work in person, offline and on paper

I can see what they’re going for with this initiative. To advocate that all student work be done “in person, offline and on paper” takes the logic of AI detection to its obvious conclusion. What would this look like in practice though? I struggle to imagine a sustained learning process enacted in this way which wouldn’t hinder and harm students in a whole range of ways. There are so many logistical and pedagogical consequences of this which would be undesirable, even if it ‘fixes’ the problem of generative AI which I don’t think is feasible given students can still access tools outside the classroom.
