I guess my view on that would be that maybe assessments can start looking at students' ability to critically analyze these summaries that GenAI tools provide, to reason about what is accurate, what is not accurate.’ (George)Our findings also aligned with Nikolic et al.'s (2023) suggestion for a shift in assessment fromonline to oral or in-person exams. A similar conclusion was reached by Qadir (2023), whobelieved a shift in assessment methods towards oral exams or individual projects could reducethe risks posed by GenAI, while the traditional way of assessment can be used as daily exercisewith less focus on the students’ final grades.Hillary proposed

All of this feedback, from the user’s point of view, seemingly comesfrom the authoring tool.
