How does an institution respond to technological
challenges such as GAI? The attitudes of institutional
members towards technological advancements are
revealed in their responses to an intervention in response
to GAI challenges to assessment policy. The initiation,
design and outcome of such an intervention are discussed
as an exemplar of how to rapidly develop institutional
customs and practices around assessment in the face of
challenge.
This session will review the institutional responses to an
intervention designed to manage challenges around GAI.
The context will be explored and the specific case
described. The core challenges around GAI and their
specific meaning in a widening participation institution will
be discussed. The response of individuals in relation to this
challenge and the intervention will be addressed, exposing
the impact of initial attitudes to technology on the progress
of the intervention project. The project progress will be
evaluated and its outcomes debated
