With the expansion of artificial ielligence tools such as ChatGPT, Canadian universities have faced a new challenge in evaluating stude performance. Some professors have returned to written or oral exams to preve possible fraud, while others are looking for ways to iegrate this technology io education.
A study in Year 2 showed that 5 % of Canadian studes use artificial ielligence tools in their homework. In the meaime, some professors, instead of banning these tools, ask studes to docume their use to determine the amou of learning.
While some universities have returned to handheld exams, experts such as Karsten Mondel and Jennifer Figer believe that these reactions are more based on fear. According to them, the focus should be on teaching critical skills to use new tools, not just restrictions.
Studes also believe that the use of artificial ielligence in the real world is inevitable, and that universities should pay atteion to the transparency, education and construction of a culture of trust in the educational environme rather than punishme.
