As AI tools become a natural part of how we learn, plan, and create, educators are being asked a deeper question: how do we design assessments that genuinely capture learner understanding, thinking, and growth in an AI-rich world?
In this collaborative session, participants will explore innovative, inclusive approaches to assessment that honor human reasoning, while encouraging thoughtful integration of AI. Together, we will examine ways to design learning arcs and assessments that surface Computational Thinking practices, and the 5Cs (Collaboration, Creativity, Critical Thinking, Communication, and Compassion)—while challenging learners to leverage AI as a tool to support and extend their thinking and impact.
Grounded in assets-based practices, UDL, and workforce-aligned learning, this session emphasizes student agency and access for ALL. Participants will engage in dialogue & reflection, and begin envisioning assessment strategies that support meaningful learning, and prepare students for the future, in a rapidly evolving educational and technological landscape.
