This special episode of AI Dialogues features a recently recorded Instructor Panel at McMaster University. The panel was moderated by Sam Scott (from S2 E7), and brings together four educators with different experiences and perspectives on using AI and generative AI for evaluation purposes. The panelists discuss advantages and disadvantages of automation in grading, how generative AI differs from previous applications of automated grading, and what this means for the future of assessment. 

The panelists are:

Patrick Thibaudeau, York University's Director, IT Innovation and Academic Technologies at York University, talks about the artificial intelligence platform, AURA, that his team launched at the end of August. We discuss why York decided to build its own AI platform in house, what went into development, and how the platform is being used across the university.

In this episode I check in with some students and see how they would react if they saw a disclosure of GenAI use statement on their course materials. I interviewed 4 different students, 2 grad, 2 undergrad, from Cognitive Psychology, Life Science, Political Science, and Philosophy. Their perspectives offer interesting nuances on differences in use, course context, and types of course material.

I’m joined by Susan McCahan, who’s the Vice-Provost of Academic Programs and Innovations in Undergraduate Education at the University of Toronto.  

Susan discusses her role as the Provost’s Advisor on Artificial Intelligence and teaching and learning co-chair of U of T's AI Task Force Steering Committee, and we talk about updates to their FAQs, including the decision to allow students to use GenAI as a learning aid.
