AI Won’t Do This for Them: Crafting Assessments that Reward Thinking, Not Output

Thursday, November 13 at 12pm ET

This is a free event, but seats may be limited.

AI can write an essay. It can code a program. It can even pass high stakes exams like the Bar exam (and at pretty high rates)! But what it can’t do is engage in the messy, iterative, human process of learning, applying, and justifying knowledge. That’s where authentic assessments come in.

This webinar will equip instructors with practical, 'AI-resistant' assessment strategies that shift the emphasis from polished deliverables to the actual student journey. You’ll learn how to reframe assessments to reward original thinking, showcase problem-solving, and demand defense of choices. Assessments like these not only make it more difficult for students to just 'ChatGPT' assignments, but it can also remove much of the motivation to do so.  

From case studies and lab activities in STEM to strategic pitches in business, and portfolio projects in the humanities and social sciences, we’ll explore cross-disciplinary examples that work in real classrooms. Warning: this is not an anti-AI webinar. In fact, many of the assessment ideas discussed will intentionally incorporate the use of generative AI to help students become competent in using AI ethically to foster deeper learning and higher-order thinking. Expect actionable tips for managing feedback, scaling grading, and supporting academic integrity without burning out.

Takeaways include:

  • How to create assessment that resist thoughtless AI-generated responses
  • Examples of multi-step assignments that spotlight process over product
  • Rubrics and workflows for efficient, scalable grading
  • Tools to support peer collaboration and student accountability

If you’re ready to build assessments that AI can’t easily ace for your students, this webinar is your blueprint.
