SUMMARY:The Essay is Dead… Now What? Alternative Assessment Studio – Reimagining assessment in the AI era: a pop-up studio series
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to a fully online pop-up studio where we’ll explore the post–AI classroom through new forms of assessment, class exercises, critical thinking inspiration and worldbuilding. Across four concise, high-energy one-hour sessions, participants will collaborate to adapt assessment alternatives that respond meaningfully to generative AI – not simply police it.\n\nGuided by experts in both assessment and AI, you’ll experiment with creative formats, contribute to crowd-sourced resources and probe the deeper purposes of grading in a machine-assisted world. Come curious and leave with a fresh portfolio of ideas – and the confidence to transform AI-era assessment into a vehicle for deeper learning and authentic expression.\n\nThese sessions are open to all: post-secondary and K to 12 educators, artists, students and members of the public. Join us for the full series or select individual sessions.\n\n\n– Aug. 19, 1 to 2 p.m. ET\nAlternative assessment brainstorm: in-class activities to inspire critical thinking\nLed by Eliana El Khoury, assistant professor, humanities and social sciences, Athabasca University\n\n– Aug. 21, 1 to 2 p.m. ET\nHuman and artful writing assessment in the age of AI: a meditation on why we teach\nLed by Elisabeth Rodriguez Fielder, associate professor, English, University of Iowa\n\n– Aug. 26, 9 to 10 a.m. ET\nThe SHARE framework for scholarly co-writing with AI\nLed by Robin Sutherland-Harris, educational developer, York University\n\n– Aug. 28, 9 to 10 a.m. ET\nNew final exams: alternatives to end-of-year assessments\nLed byElisha Lim, assistant professor, humanities, York University\n\nPlease register by completing our registration form.
