Join us for an online panel discussion on assessment in the context of GenAI
The Manitoba Flexible Learning Hub (MB Hub) will host an inter-institutional expert panel on Friday, November 22, 2024. Covering the intertwined topics of academic integrity, student use of Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) and best practices for assessment post-secondary institutions.
The emergence of GenAI gives instructors an opportunity to reflect, adapt and support both student learning and academic integrity. “An Opportunity to Recalibrate: Aligning with Best Practices in Assessment to Support Learning in the Context of GenAI” panel will provide post-secondary instructors from across the province the opportunity to engage in a dialogue about assessment, academic integrity and GenAI.
The event will be presented via Zoom, with MB Hub partner panelists from Assiniboine College, Brandon University, Red River College Polytech, and an out-of-province guest from Medicine Hat College.
