Threats and opportunities of using AI in teaching Location: Shediac A Toni Roberts, Mount Allison University Generative AI in teaching has resulted in a need for a re-evaluation of pedagogies and assessment in courses within post-secondary education and beyond. In this session, we will discuss the development and tensions between GAI and certain assessment approaches. |
We then discuss how we can develop assessment items that are resistant to GAI, while focusing more on authentic assessment. This will also include ways to leverage GAI in your classroom assessment.
