AI chatbots can improve student engagement, learning outcomes, and cognitive skills like critical thinking and problem-solving, but they deliver real value only when assessments are intentionally crafted to invite or limit their use at the right moments.
As instructional designers and faculty, we set the stage: thoughtful assessment design can harness chatbots for deeper inquiry, creativity, and feedback while upholding academic integrity. Join this webinar to explore how purposeful assessment choices drive integrity and learning in the age of generative AI.
