About this African AI Assessment Collaboration project

African Teachers and Educators are exploring the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools for various teaching situations, as well as assessment.

Teachers across Africa and around the world are invited to share examples of where they are using AI for assessment and empowering learners.


This aggregation of ideas will showcase how teachers in Africa and around the world, are using AI to assist in creating assessments, tests, quizzes, or marking tasks, or providing feedback to learners using Artificial Intelligence.


HEY Teachers! SHARE YOUR AI Assessment IDEA!

Teachers are asked to share their ideas of how they are using AI to create, implement, and assess learners for any learning context.


Teachers may submit their ideas in any African language. If not in English, please create a translated English version as well (You would have two slides in this instance)

You may share more than one idea - ONLY ONE idea per slide.


This is an open invitation to all educators to share ideas on how AI tools such as Gemini, ChatGPT,   ChatGPT,  Microsoft Copilot, DALL-E 3, Midjourney or any other AI tools you may be using for assessment assistance.

Marking.ai is a South African AI marking tool you could explore.


“I think the big mistake in schools is trying to teach children anything, and by using fear as the basic motivation. Fear of getting failing grades, fear of not staying with your class, etc. Interest can produce learning on a scale compared to fear as a nuclear explosion to a firecracker.” ― Stanley Kubrick, film director


How do we create assessments that build knowledge and remove fear?

Do you use AI to assist you? Share your idea!
