New working definition of authentic assessment: “design of tasks that prepare learners to navigate complex, messy, ambiguous, unpredictable situations with informed integrity, while also making appropriate choices about whether and how to use AI tools.” #onlinelearning #highered
COL@COL4D

With the rise of GenAI, widening social inequalities, and rapid technological change, COL’s newest Knowledge Series publication explores how authentic assessment has become a practical necessity for ensuring assessment addresses both academic integrity and practical application in complex, real-world situations.

“The stakes are high: if AI is irredeemably colonial, education must resist its use; if it can be turned and tuned toward decolonial praxis, the implications for pedagogy, knowledge production, and justice-oriented education are transformative.” #GenAI #HigherEd #OnlineLearning

As advanced as AI seems, there's something anti-intellectual about it. It treats thinking as an obstacle on the path to "the answer." But for the intellectual, thinking isn't a means to an end. It's the thing itself. No wonder so many thoughtful people hate it.

"Intention–behaviour gap in self-regulated learning…is often treated as motivational or volitional failure. link.springer.com/article/10.100… shows even well-informed students may default to ineffective strategies because they are automatically cued & resistant to change" via @C_Hendrick

Neuro-myths such as Learning Styles are the ultimate litmus test of a profession and it's one that education keeps failing again and again.
Yulia Chentsova@ChentsovaY77157

@C_Hendrick My university's Academic Resource Center offers learning style assessment to our students. I have made literally dozens of attempts to get them to stop, to no avail.

"Generative AI ...is everything that higher education should not be: exploitative, non-consensual, inaccurate, corrosive of cognitive growth and human relationships, destructive of people and the environment, and effectively unregulated." Blog link in replies.

A Student’s Right to Refuse Generative AI «I came to realize what I valued most in my education: discussion-rich classes, reciprocity with my peers and professors, and to be challenged and work through those challenges with the guidance of my professors.» refusinggenai.wordpress.com/2025/08/29/a-s…

I am going through my angry phase of AI (it comes in waves, but I'm at a particularly deep phase of anger right now). I can't stand how much people diminish the reproduction of bias and occasional hallucinations. Why? Why does this not matter to some people?

Typical Silicon Valley (pseudo-) logic: let's just pretend this tech is magic, and that its costs don't matter. Yes, there are many meaningful climate-positive applications of AI, but we urgently need to address the environmental impacts of (superfluous) generative AI.
Tsarathustra@tsarnick

Former Google CEO Eric Schmidt says energy demand for AI is infinite and we are never going to meet our climate goals anyway, so we may as well bet on building AI to solve the problem

"It seems rash…to promise 2 sigma effects from AI when human tutoring has rarely produced such large effects…. Over-promising can lead to disappointment, & reaching for impossible goals can breed questionable educational practices" educationnext.org/two-sigma-tuto… #AI #Chatbot #HigherEd
