About the event

As schools across the UK strive to maintain high standards and exceptional student outcomes, the rise of AI has introduced challenges like plagiarism and cognitive offloading. However, instead of overhauling existing assessment practices, this event focuses on making small, practical tweaks to existing strategies. By embracing AI as a tool to support learning, educators can enhance student autonomy, improve outcomes, and reduce workload—all while safeguarding academic integrity.

Join us to explore how thoughtful adjustments in assessment design can lead to significant improvements.
