Course (Re)Design Award

Description

The Course (Re)Design Award recognizes instructors who demonstrate leadership in adapting their assessment practices in response to the evolving learning landscape shaped by generative AI. We acknowledge that confidently assessing student learning in the age of AI comes with many challenges and thus we are interested in high quality assessment innovation.

We recognize that AI challenges related to assessment are shared but also specific, amorphous but also contained, and daunting but also needing solutions. This award recognizes innovation in assessment to address specific AI challenges such as:

- capacity for feedback and formative support
- integrity in student production of assignments
- offloading course requirements to AI
- inauthentic forum posts and discussion
- student anxiety about AI and performance

Aligned with the University of Alberta’s SHAPE, Changing the Story, and Braiding Past, Present, and Future, this award celebrates innovation that advances the University's strategic priorities in a meaningful way.
