As AI transforms how learners write, analyze, solve problems, and create, how can we ensure assessment still provides meaningful evidence of learning?

Join the Digital Learning Institute (DLI), in partnership with the Association for Learning Technology (ALT), for a FREE panel discussion exploring the future of assessment in an AI-rich world.

With generative and agentic AI becoming increasingly embedded in education, traditional approaches to assessment are being challenged. If AI can produce polished assignments, reports, and projects, how do we know what learners truly understand and can do?

Should institutions continue investing in AI detection and monitoring, or is it time to rethink how we assess learning altogether?

Bringing together experts from digital learning and higher education, this panel will explore how assessment can move beyond detecting AI use to focus on developing and demonstrating durable human capabilities, including critical thinking, judgment, problem-solving, and the ability to apply knowledge in new contexts.

• Beyond AI Detection: Should institutions focus on identifying AI-generated work, or redesign assessment to better demonstrate authentic learning?

• Assessing Human Capability: How can we assess critical thinking, understanding, judgment, and the ability to verify and apply knowledge in an AI-rich environment?

• Rethinking Assessment Design: Exploring program-level approaches that build a more meaningful picture of learner development over time.

• Practical Steps for Educators: What can educators, learning designers, and support teams do now to make assessment more meaningful, inclusive, and resilient?
