Show Notes

A view that AI could be used as a tool in school exams in the future. 

NZQA investigated 876 alleged exam breaches last year, and almost 60 involved AI. 

Principals believe the technology was used in some of the 200-odd authenticity breaches. 

Canterbury University Associate Professor of Digital Education Kathryn MacCallum told Ryan Bridge AI use is seen as cheating, which isn't always true. 

She says writing an essay can still be an assessment of a student's learning with AI, we just need to change the way we assess.
