Go2K: Instructors’ Toolkit: Leveraging Generative AI For Student Self-Assessment & Personalized Learning

In today’s rapidly evolving educational landscape, generative AI tools (like ChatGPT) offer unprecedented opportunities for students to enhance and support their learning. Generative AI’s effectiveness in self-assessment for students lies in its ability to provide a personalized, immediate, and endlessly patient learning experience accessible at any time. This approach enhances learning efficiency and effectiveness and provides a low-stress, cost-effective means for fostering educational success for all students.

Generative AI offers students a broad spectrum of self-assessment avenues, catering to various learning needs and styles. It enhances study and revision through interactive tools that promote active engagement with course material, reinforcing learning and assessment preparation. Generative AI is an invaluable assistant for writing skills, offering feedback and guidance that nurtures students’ ability to articulate their thoughts effectively. In mathematics and logical reasoning, it acts as a supportive tool, aiding problem-solving and applying concepts in real-world scenarios. AI tools enrich research and analytical skills by providing a platform for in-depth exploration and clarification of complex subjects. It also cultivates critical thinking and analytical abilities through various thought-provoking activities. Beyond these, AI has the potential to foster reflective and interactive learning, encouraging students to introspect and engage deeply with their learning journey.
