Notes
Two years on from the initial panic around Chat GPT and student cheating we catch with Phill Dawson from Deakin’s ‘Centre for Research in Assessment and Digital Learning’.
Phill reflects on what universities have got wrong in their responses to GenAI, and why this might be a good time to entirely rethink the notion of student assessment altogether.
…He makes the point that universities’ failure to convincingly deal with this technology is going to come back to haunt HE in a few years’ time … giving critics plenty of scope to (unfairly) denigrate the current cohort of students and the universities that graduate them. – Neil Selwyn
