Abstract

The sudden popularity and availability of generative AI tools, such as ChatGPT that can write compelling essays on any topic, code in various programming languages, and ace standardized tests across domains, raises questions about the sustainability of traditional assessment practices. To seize this opportunity for innovation in assessment practice, we conducted a survey to understand both the educators' and students' perspectives on the issue. We measure and compare attitudes of both stakeholders across various assessment scenarios, building on an established framework for examining the quality of online assessments along six dimensions. Responses from 389 students and 36 educators across two universities indicate moderate usage of generative AI, consensus for which types of assessments are most impacted, and concerns about academic integrity. Educators prefer adapted assessments that assume AI will be used and encourage critical thinking, but students' reaction is mixed, in part due to concerns about a loss of creativity. The findings show the importance of engaging educators and students in assessment reform efforts to focus on the process of learning over its outputs, higher-order thinking, and authentic applications.

  • The authors state this as an assumption.

    The framework for online assessment quality is likely to generalize across countries.

    “We believe that the framework is likely to generalize across countries and we are interested in examining if it can accurately reflect students' perspectives on assessment as well.”
  • The authors state this as an assumption.

    In today's context, generative AI tools such as ChatGPT are widely available and students have equal access to the tool.

    “Now consider the same assessment prompt again but in today's context when generative AI tools, such as ChatGPT, are widely available (i.e., students have equal access to the tool).”
  • The paper relies on this without support.

    ChatGPT can write compelling essays on any topic, code in various programming languages, and ace standardized tests across domains.

  • The paper relies on this without support.

    Pooling responses across the two institutions is valid for observing major trends.

    “To analyze the data we have collected so far, we compute percentages and means of participants' ratings to observe major trends pooling across the two institutions.”
  • The paper relies on this without support.

    Students can potentially use generative AI tools like ChatGPT to cheat on online assessments by submitting essays that are not their own work.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

Self-check

Percentages, sums and reported differences re-computed from the paper’s own numbers.

Each contradiction between two passages listed here was confirmed by an independent check.

  • Impact ratings are attributed to the wrong figure

    Minor

    The text cites Figure 1 for Australian educators' and students' impact ratings, but the paper identifies Figure 2 as showing those ratings. Figure 1 is the assessment framework.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-10-23, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).

A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-23 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
