College professors are going back to paper exams and handwritten essays to fight students using ChatGPT::The growing number of students using the AI program ChatGPT as a shortcut in their coursework has led some college professors to reconsider their lesson plans for the upcoming fall semester.
Might as well go back to oral exams and ask the student questions on the spot.
That’s actually something that is done (PhD viva). If I had the budget to hire another 6 assistant profs to viva my 120 students, I’d probably do it for my module too!
I love this method and would use it if it weren’t so incredibly time consuming. How are you supposed to test 30 students that way? Nevermind 300.
With AI-based oral testing, of course!
Oh wow … I definitely see someone trying to do that.
Invest now! It’s the future of education.
We still have orals in smaller seminars, and for PhDs. As another poster said there’s too many students in most courses to do it, but we absolutely do oral exams for smaller cohorts.
This went away?
