Rethinking Assignments in a GenAI World
While there is no way to fully prevent students from using GenAI tools on schoolwork when it is forbidden, there are ways to make it much more difficult for them to do so (or at least get away with it).
Make the assignment personal. Connect to students' own experiences and observations.
Require process documentation. Have students submit notes, photos, interviews, drafts, etc. as proof that they actually completed the assignment as intended.
Add human interaction. Use elements that require interaction with others – such as interviews, teaching others, giving a presentation, etc.
Involve current and/or local data. Have students create, find, or analyze school-specific information, recent events, regional statistics, etc.
Include creative/original elements. In place of a traditional paper, instruct students to design, create, or problem-solve.
Put AI on your side. Upload your assignments to a GenAI chatbot and ask it to suggest ways to make them AI-proof.
