Proof of Process: Designing AI-Resistant Assessments
Time: 12:00 PM - 4:00 PM CDT
Room: TBD
Fee: $200

As Generative AI reshapes the academic landscape, educators must evolve their assessment strategies to ensure student integrity and authentic learning. This hands-on workshop introduces actionable strategies for "AI-proofing" your curriculum, ranging from in-class analog pivots to complex, process-oriented digital projects. Participants will move beyond theory and actively develop four distinct types of exercises—including scaffolded reflections, hyper-local research prompts, and oral defense simulations—tailored to their specific disciplines. By the end of the session, participants will leave with a diversified assessment toolkit that shifts the focus from policing technology to evaluating unique, human-centric critical thinking.
