CPD Webinar Series 2025: GenAI and Assessment: A Design Guide to Integrate AI into Authentic Assessment

The approval of institutional policies on how to use generative AI (GenAI) tools ethically to support learning, along with the publication of reference frameworks for developing the AI competencies and literacy of staff and students, is pushing the HE sector to rethink assessment strategies. These strategies aim to support the introduction of GenAI while fostering the development of new AI competencies and rethinking pivotal assessment concepts such as academic integrity, intellectual authorship, and the very purpose of assessment.

In this webinar, Mari Cruz García Vallejo explores various approaches to integrating GenAI into assessment. She also proposes a step-by-step design guide to effectively integrate GenAI into authentic assessment. This webinar primarily focuses on curriculum development and is aimed at teaching staff in the HE and FE sectors, as well as professional staff who support assessment and teaching.

During the webinar, participants will be introduced to key concepts such as:

What is AI literacy, and what are AI competencies?
The role of learners in assessment.
What is authentic assessment exactly?
A step-by-step method to design authentic assessment that integrates GenAI.
