AI and Assessment Seminars - Structured groupwork

Tuesday 9 September 2025

This new seminar series invites colleagues to share practices around AI and assessment that are transferable, practical, and authentic. 

Educators know that attendance alone does not guarantee engagement in class, nor learning of course material. However, in this session, we will hear Natalie Silver (Faculty of Law) describe how she successfully uses structured groupwork to guide and support student engagement with class material, develop leadership skills and capabilities in her students, and how she uses this structured groupwork as an authentic assessable task for individual students in her course.

The new Sydney Assessment Framework recategorises each assessment according to their role as assessment of, for or as learning and how they are delivered and adjustments are applied. It aligns with the ‘two-lane approach’ to assessment in the age of generative AI through the appropriate use of ‘secure’ assessments where the use of AI can be controlled (Lane 1), and the development disciplinary knowledge, skills, and dispositions alongside AI through ‘open’ assessments (Lane 2). 

Note:

  • The first half of the session will be streamed via Zoom.
  • The second half of the session will be interactive and practical and optimised for in person participants. We will endeavour to run an equivalent for Zoom participants.
