What's worth measuring? The future of assessment in the AI age

The rise of AI tools disrupts traditional ideas of assessment, and urges a shift toward promoting and evaluating higher-order thinking, creativity, and ethical reasoning.

By Hrishikesh Desai

    Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools like ChatGPT have fundamentally disrupted traditional notions of assessment in education. When a machine can generate essays, solve complex problems, and even mimic creative writing, educators are forced to ask: What skills should we assess, and how do we evaluate learning in a world where AI can perform tasks once thought uniquely human? This think piece explores the implications of AI for assessment and argues that we must shift from measuring rote knowledge to promoting and evaluating higher-order thinking, creativity, and ethical reasoning. 

    Historically, educational assessment has relied on measurable outputs, such as essays, exams, and problem sets that test memorization, comprehension, and technical proficiency. However, AI’s ability to generate these outputs undermines their reliability as indicators of individual effort or understanding. For example, a student can prompt ChatGPT or DeepSeek to write a 1000-word essay on climate change in minutes, complete with citations, which leaves educators grappling with how to distinguish human work from machinegenerated content. This disruption extends beyond writing to mathematics, coding, and even creative tasks, where AI tools like GitHub Copilot and DALL-E provide solutions or artifacts that mimic human ingenuity. As AI becomes a ubiquitous resource, the traditional metrics of learning are no longer fit for purpose. The emergence of generative AI has precipitated what can only be described as an assessment crisis.

    This technological disruption to learning has arrived at a critical juncture. For decades, faculty have critiqued assessment methods that prioritize memorization and formulaic responses over deeper learning. The emergence of sophisticated AI tools has transformed this critique from a theoretical ideal into an immediate practical necessity. We can no longer rely on conventional assessment methods that AI can bypass with ease. I argue that generative AI is not merely challenging our assessment techniques but providing an opportunity to fundamentally realign educational evaluation with more authentic demonstrations of human learning, thinking, and creation.

‘Our children are less cognitively capable,’ says neuroscientist who wants to cut screen use in schools

Jared Cooney Horvath argues that educational technology undermines how children learn and develop

    Jared Cooney Horvath is on a mission. In the wake of global campaigns for smartphone bans in schools and social media restrictions for under-16s, the neuroscientist wants to raise the alarm about educational technology in classrooms.

    A former teacher, Horvath believes the use of screens and digital tools in schools is undermining how children learn and develop. “This might be one of the hardest truths our generation has to face,” he writes in his book, The Digital Delusion.
    
    “Our children are less cognitively capable than we were at their age,” he says. “For nearly two centuries, the west experienced steady generational progress. Each new cohort of children grew up, on average, healthier, happier, and better educated than the last. Until now.”

    Starting around the year 2000, something changed. “Across the west, IQ scores began to fall – even as time spent in school kept rising,” writes Horvath. Scores in international tests started to drop. Why? “The answer lies in the meteoric rise of educational technology.”

    According to a recent Department for Education report, the UK educational technology – or edtech – market generated an annual turnover of about £6.5bn. In the US, Horvath says it is a $400bn (£295bn) mega-industry, woven into every aspect of schooling.

    “We’ve been making some incredible strides on the screenbased childhood stuff which even two years ago, I did not think was going to happen as fast as it did,” he said. “But it’s not just about getting rid of screens for entertainment. It’s about reducing them as much as possible for academic learning as well if we want our kids to have deep transferrable knowledge in our heads.”

Based on the text, classify the statements below as True (T) or False (F).

II. Horvath claims that generational improvements in health, happiness, and education had continued consistently in the West after the year 2000.
III. Horvath suggests that reducing academic screen use could help children develop deeper knowledge that can be transferred to different contexts.
IV. Horvath states that he expected progress in reducing screenbased childhood to occur as rapidly as it has.

Today, around 9.000.000 people live in London, and every year more than nine million people come from countries all over the world to visit the city. A quick and easy way to get to different places is to use an Underground train. The trains which run all day and most of the night are comfortable and safe. You can see much more of London, however, from one of its famous red buses because there are some special ones for visitors that drive you to many of the interesting places in the city on a journey that takes about one and a half hour. London taxis, courney that alled black cabs, whose drivers are helpful and with whom you can practice your English while on a ride, may also take you on tours. It’s also possible to go on a boat trip along the River Thames and see lovely places in and out of the city. London has interesting old buildings to visit, many of them are hundreds of years old: The Buckingham Palace – the home of the Queen; the Tower Bridge – opened in 1894, The Houses of the Parliament – the home of the British government and beautiful churches: St. Paul’s Cathedral and Westminster Abbey. London offers beautiful parks and gardens, theatres, museums and art galleries. There are also streets whose famous shops, markets, international restaurants and pubs invite you to get a taste of the city. The typical English food is fish and chips, but there are many, many more things to see and do in London. Come and see!
