No easy answers but a useful framework for discussing changes that need to be made to assessment. We cannot rely on discursive changes to maintain integrity - "permitting any use of AI effectively permits all use of AI". Full paper: www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.... #AcademicSky
Abstract
Generative AI (GenAI) challenges assessment validity by enabling students to complete tasks without demonstrating genuine capability. In response to this challenge, institutions have developed and implemented various approaches that aim to communicate permissible AI use to students. Familiar examples include the ‘traffic light’ approach now commonly found within institutional policy. While well-intentioned, these approaches share a common limitation: They focus primarily on communicating rules rather than redesigning assessment mechanics. To clarify why such approaches fail, and to guide more effective responses, this paper introduces a novel conceptual distinction between discursive changes to assessment (modifications relying solely on instructions students remain free to ignore) and structural changes (modifications that reshape the underlying mechanics of assessment tasks themselves). Through a critical analysis of prominent frameworks, we demonstrate that current approaches predominantly rely on discursive changes that create what we term an ‘enforcement illusion’. We find that educational frameworks frequently borrow the language of socially familiar structural systems (like vehicular traffic lights) while lacking their actual enforcement capabilities, creating an illusion of assessment security. In place of this, we argue for a shift towards structural assessment redesign that builds validity into assessment architecture rather than attempting to impose it through unenforceable rules.

We’ve submitted our official statement on Switzerland’s 2027 austerity package. Why? Because cutting education and research means cutting our future. SwissRN stands for rigorous, transparent and reproducible science - this needs stable funding, not short-term savings. www.swissrn.org/contents/new...
