This webinar is part of the OLC Accelerate Best-in-Track webinar series!
As AI becomes an unavoidable tool in education, faculty face a central question: how do we uphold academic integrity while preparing students for a world where AI is readily available? This webinar introduces a two-part final exam model that offers a simple, powerful solution.
In part one of the exam, students work in a secure, locked-down browser environment. No external resources are allowed. The focus here is mastery of fundamental course objectives through traditional multiple-choice or short-response questions. In part two, students are given an open environment and allowed to use any resources including AI tools like ChatGPT to solve higher-order challenges that emphasize application, synthesis, and critical thinking.
This split not only reinforces essential knowledge but acknowledges and leverages real-world tools in a controlled, ethical framework. The presenter will share his own student survey data, insights from two years of implementation, and reflections on how this format has changed student confidence, performance, and honesty.
Intended Audience:
Faculty, instructional support, learning & development professionals
Key Takeaways:
- Practical ways to implement AI-integrated assessment without compromising core learning goals
- A downloadable exam template with real question examples for both parts
- A PDF of tested ChatGPT prompts for higher order thinking tasks
- Sample syllabus policy for AI use in assessments
Please Note: While attending the webinar live is free for OLC members and non-members, on-demand recordings will be available post-webinar for Professional and Institutional Members only. Consider becoming an OLC member for access to these and many other great benefits!
