Tune into Teaching: Approaching Academic Integrity in the Age of Generative AI
August 28 @ 1:00 pm - 3:00 pm EDT
Facilitators:
Jordan Holmes, Senior Manager, Teaching, Learning & Technology, CTSI/ARC
Victoria Sheldon, Faculty Liaison Coordinator, Generative AI Pedagogies, CTSI
The use of generative AI is likely to become a defining feature of education in the coming decades. However, its rapid emergence presents significant ethical and academic challenges, especially concerning academic integrity. Educators now face a critical decision: attempt to ban generative AI outright or find a way to integrate it while maintaining academic standards and student skill development. Given AI’s rapid progress and the limitations of text detection tools, how can we strike the right balance?
In this collaborative workshop, we invite educators to reflect on their perspectives, questions, and approaches to academic integrity in the age of generative AI. First, we will discuss university guidelines on using detection tools, the procedure for addressing concerns of students’ unauthorized use of generative AI, and strategies to prohibit and prevent its use. Second, we will critically examine frameworks for incorporating generative AI into assessments, collaboratively exploring how instructors can design evaluations that foster knowledge and skill development, enhance AI literacy, and promote ethical decision-making. Third, we will discuss the disciplinary implications and challenges of integrating generative AI into assessments while promoting academic integrity.
Join us in this conversation as we collectively navigate generative AI’s impact on academic integrity, carefully weighing its advantages against the need to maintain ethical standards.
Learning Objectives:
By the end of this session, participants will be able to:
- Reflect on the impact of generative AI on how instructors and students classify and grapple with academic integrity violations.
- Explore and critically assess frameworks for integrating generative AI in assessments while maintaining academic integrity.
- Engage in reflective dialogue concerning the ethical implications of using AI tools in assessments, considering both student and educator viewpoints.
- Critically examine how generative AI impacts specific academic disciplines and professional fields.
