Nearly 2 years after the release of ChatGPT, it's no longer news that our past safeguards against cheating are out of date. New technologies have popped up that promise "AI detection," alongside the somewhat older tools of plagiarism detection and remote proctoring for exams. But how dependable are these tools, and is increased surveillance really our best bet? Join this session to discuss what we actually mean by academic integrity, what motivates students to “cheat,” and how we can limit digital surveillance tactics to keep student learning as our north star.
We continue to curate the latest AI Tools that can support educators in their teaching practice. You can also access the padlet here.
