Ever since ChatGPT became publicly available late last year, a professor at the University of Calgary has been contacted daily by colleagues seeking advice on what to do
Instructors at Canadian postsecondary schools, warned that the struggle to prevent cheating with artificial-intelligence apps such as ChatGPT won’t be won by a technological arms race, are instead changing how they conduct assessments.
By now most professors have heard of cases where students have used AI to generate answers and passed them off as their own, according to Prof. Eaton. Many instructors are concerned about the potential for cheating, particularly because the output of ChatGPT is not easy to spot. But the jury is still out, she said, on the level of threat posed by the new technology.
Participants gave the AI-generated material an average grade of B-minus, he said. The study was relatively small, with 135 participants, and will soon appear in a refereed journal. It is being redone at a larger scale this year. She said the way that instructors once handed out a mark of B for flawed but well-written work will likely have to change: “We want to make sure that people are not grading that way, because anybody is going to be able to produce decent writing.”
