What Assignment Are You Rethinking Right Now?
I've been thinking about assessment all week, and I realized something:
The assignments we're most worried about AI "breaking" are often the ones we should have been rethinking anyway.
Not because AI proved we were wrong. But because what AI can do perfectly is tell us what we were actually measuring.
So I'm curious:
Is there an assignment you give that, if you're honest with yourself, you'd realize is measuring output instead of thinking?
Not in a guilty way. Just honestly.
Maybe it's a five-paragraph essay. Maybe it's a summary. Maybe it's something that just happens to be in a format that's easy for you to grade but doesn't actually capture their thinking.
If you were going to redesign it, where would you start?
What would you change to make their thinking visible instead of just their polished output?
Share your assignment. Share what you're wondering about. That's how we figure this out together.
BTW, this week my third book in the CALM AI series is free. Get it here before Friday: https://amzn.to/4xyEKph
