Presentation Description
Workshop Facilitators: Dr Maryam Wagner and Dr Carlos Gomez-Garibello
Recent and sustained developments in generative artificial intelligence (AI) tools, and their widespread accessibility are challenging typical methods for assessment of learners in health professions contexts. Learners are using AI tools such as ChatGPT to brainstorm ideas, answer multiple choice questions, and submit both edited and non-edited written materials (Hao, 2023). The pervasiveness of these tools and their uses have prompted many discussions about their impact on assessment- both positive and inciting challenges. The workshop will be delivered through mini-plenaries, hands-on activities, and discussions. Part I of the workshop is a short plenary presentation to introduce the audience to various capabilities of artificial intelligence tools that learner assessment. Part II of the workshop will engage participants in a jigsaw activity that guides participants to explore key issues and topics of assessment in the context of AI, its risks and challenges, and ethical and pragmatic implications for workplace-based assessment and research. The workshop will conclude with Part III with a facilitated discussion to synthesize the outcomes of the workshop.
