This session explores how to leverage Brightspace tools to design authentic, process-driven learning experiences that minimize AI misuse and maximize engagement. Strategic use of Rubrics, Video Notes, Discussions, Assignment Feedback, and Intelligent Agents can help faculty get to know learners, emphasize process and reflection, and turn AI-generated work into a teachable moment, eliminating the time often spent investigating AI-generated work.  Authenticity isn’t caught—it’s cultivated. Learn how to redesign your course around trust, process, and meaningful student engagement.

Pictured below are example screenshots of rubrics we use to assess student work without the need for tedious academic integrity conversations. By rethinking how we assess learning, students who submit AI-generated work earn the low grade they deserve, eliminating the need to accuse or waste instructional effort on policing AI use.
