From Panic to Possibility: Rethinking and Redesigning Assignments in the Wake of Generative AI

Facilitators:
Alison Gibbs, Professor, Teaching Stream Department of Statistical Sciences, Director, CTSI
Andrea Williams, Associate Professor, Teaching Stream Writing & Rhetoric, Innis College, Deputy Director, CTSI

As an instructor, it is hard to read about the impact of generative AI on teaching and learning in higher education and not wonder about how this will impact our traditional assessments, especially when we are told that many of our students are already using it. This workshop will help move you from panic mode to problem-solving: in consultation with workshop leaders and faculty peers, you will get a chance to rethink and redesign one of your assignments with a focus on learning objectives, possibilities, and constraints in our current context.
