This workshop explores authentic assessments that align well with the presence and use of generative AI. Rather than using AI to create assessments, this session focuses on crafting meaningful learning experiences that remain relevant and effective in an AI-enhanced classroom. Participants will consider practical examples across disciplines, reflect on how AI may be impacting their current assignments, and leave with adaptable strategies for strengthening academic integrity and student engagement.
