Leveraging AI in Assignments

This recording of Alchemy’s August 2023 webinar provides an overview to how instructors might leverage AI in their assignments and assessments while maximizing academic integrity.

This website from Georgetown University’s Center for New Designs in Learning and Scholarship presents strategies for designing authentic assignments, as well as ways to integrate AI into assignment design. There are example assignments from Georgetown faculty that take into account the capabilities of AI.

In this post, Daniel Stanford (DePaul University) shares a variety of “AI-infused learning activities” that instructors can incorporate into their classes, from text revision and critiques of AI-generated content to creative writing and role-play.

This paper by Ethan R. Mollick and Lilach Mollick (University of Pennsylvania - Wharton School) describes seven possible approaches for using AI in the classroom: AI as mentor, tutor, coach, teammate, student, simulator, and tool. The authors describe each of these roles, along with their possible pedagogical benefits and risks.
