   Learning Assessment Through Living It: Using AI as both Tool and Teacher in Graduate Education

  
  

  January 26, 2026

  12noon to 1:00PM Eastern Time

  This presentation explores an innovative graduate course where students learn assessment principles while experiencing AI-mediated assessment firsthand. Students interact with AI as personalized tutors, skeptical challengers, and debate partners, then build their own assessment-aligned GPTs. This dual approach—learning about assessment through AI while experiencing AI-mediated assessment, develops sophisticated critical thinking and transforms students from passive technology consumers into thoughtful practitioners ready for AI-enhanced educational contexts.
  

  Session Objectives:

  • Experience firsthand how interacting with AI chatbots enhances understanding of formative assessment principles
  • Practice designing and building custom AI chatbots for assessment purposes  
  • Develop strategies for helping students critically evaluate AI tools through creation and interaction  
  • Create implementation plans addressing equity and access challenges 
  • Build networks with peers navigating similar innovations

  Presenter:

  Susan Gracia, Visiting Professor Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú

  Senior Associate Director of Data Literacy, Northeastern University

  
  

  Cost:  this event is free for NEean members, and costs $15 for non-members.

   Assessment Strategies for Student Use of AI

  
  

  February 10, 2026

  12noon to 1:00PM Eastern Time

  This workshop explores effective assessment strategies for courses incorporating AI-related activities and assignments. It was designed with faculty as the intended audience but could also serve as a model that Teaching and Learning center can adapt for use at their own institutions. The well-received workshop has been attended by more than 125 faculty in recent months.

  Objectives:

  • Examine diverse assessment approaches specifically designed for AI-enhanced coursework. 

  • Use an AI Assessment Scale to identify the desired level of AI use in a specific assignment and consider ways to communicate those expectations to students.

  • After viewing exemplars and demonstrations, discussion methods for thoughtfully evaluating AI-assisted student work.

  • Use AI to develop rubrics and design authentic assessments that meaningfully measure learning outcomes in the evolving landscape of AI.

  Presenters:

  Lance Eaton, Senior Associate Director – AI in Teaching and Learning,

  Center for Advancing Teaching and Learning Through Research (CATLR) Northeastern University
