Now that you’ve discovered how AI can assist in crafting assessments—and more importantly, how to keep them aligned, fair, and purposeful—this lesson brings together the main themes and points toward where you can go next.
In this wrap-up video, we’ll revisit the core ideas:
- AI is a powerful assistant, not a replacement.
- Alignment is your north star. Always check for content fit, thinking level, clarity, relevance, and feasibility.
- Teach with transparency. Be explicit about AI’s role—both for you and your students.
- Build your toolkit thoughtfully. Use frameworks like the AI Assessment Scale to guide integration choices.
- Keep learning and adapting. The AI world moves fast—good teaching adapts just as quickly. (Looking at you, ChatGPT, flourishing brighter every day.)
