Students with disabilities urge greater embrace of AI tech as a growing number of universities step up measures against it.
Visually impaired student Adam Whitehead has long relied on a computer and assistive technology to help him read course materials and take exams at the University of Melbourne in Australia.
Earlier this month, the Group of Eight consortium of top Australian universities announced its members will set more pen-and-paper assessments in response to ChatGPT amid fears students could use it to generate essays and cheat at exams. A spokesperson for the University of Melbourne – which is part of the Go8 – said: “Submitted assignments are monitored using increasingly advanced technology, with students’ knowledge and consent.”
More than 6,000 teachers from universities including Harvard University and Yale University have also signed up to use GPTZero, a programme that claims to detect AI-generated text, its creator Edward Tian told theOthers take a different approach, saying universities should rethink how they teach and assess to work with new tech.
Under Australian state and federal law, students with disabilities are entitled to “reasonable adjustments” in the classroom.
