Hack-a-thon 2: AI-Open Assessment (Online - 15 April 2026, 1:00-3:00 ET)

This session is part of the 2026 AI Intensive. For more information, visit https://www.yorku.ca/teachingcommons/annual-events/#AIIntensive

The AI & Assessment Hack-a-thons Series is an opportunity for guided hands-on time for participants to work on existing assessments, whether at the level of a specific assessment, a whole course, or across a degree curriculum. Each Hack-a-thon focusses on a distinct but complementary approach to assessment (re)design in the age of AI.

Event Structure
The hack-a-thon will be based on small group workshopping sessions where instructors will have the chance to discuss their assessments, share their concerns, and work collaboratively to find solutions, with a specific focus on permitting AI use in assessment. These discussions will be guided by AI-experienced peer facilitators.

Participants must bring at least one assignment description, course syllabus, or program overview to discuss and will leave with concrete ideas for redesigned assignments and/or assessment pathways.

Registration is now open to all who teach at York. Registration beyond the York community will be open March 15-April 10. All registration closes Apr. 10 at 12:00 noon ET.

This event is free to all.
