In person exams have a place as part of assessment, alongside interactive oral assessments (yes, these can work at scale), & other forms of CA but we can't ignore the need for our students to read critically & write fluently not least due to the cognitive impact of using AI arxiv.org/abs/2506.08872

A student can upload your lecture notes, past exam papers & other material to get tailored exam prep notes without ever going near a classroom; there's no easy solution & it's more workload for academics but we need to think more carefully about assessment & why we do it & why students cheat

IT'S NOT GOOD AT SUMMARIES! STOP SAYING THAT!
