Our guest, Sarah Elaine Eaton from from University of Calgary, will give a presentation titled “Assessment and Academic Integrity in a Postplagiarism Age: Generative Artificial Intelligence and other Advanced Technologies”.
Following the presentation, there will be an opportunity to ask questions and discuss.

We warmly invite students from all disciplines to participate in this cross-disciplinary exchange. Immerse yourself in inspiration and embrace new perspectives!
About the talk
Teaching and assessing writing have become increasingly complex with the emergence of artificial intelligence (AI) apps and tools that students can access freely or at a low cost. In this talk, Eaton provides insights into how Large Language Models (LLMs) such as ChatGPT and similar apps are impacting teaching, learning, and assessment. Eaton will share insights from a recent research project she is leading at the University of Calgary, Canada, in which the team asks the following question: What are the ethical implications of artificial intelligence technologies for teaching, learning, and assessment?
This session is not about how to use specific tools. Instead, we will delve into the broad ethical and practical implications of AI for education in a post-plagiarism age.
