Making the shift from manual to AI-assisted assessments

Marking machines are no longer the stuff of science fiction!

Automated assessments, assisted by artificial intelligence, promise far greater efficiency, consistency, and personalisation, lightening the load of educators across the world.

Let’s look at what this means for educational providers, experience officers, vocational directors, and heads of learning, unpacking why making the shift from manual to AI-assisted assessments could be the best move for your organisation.

How to implement AI-assisted assessments in your organisation

If you’re considering making the shift from manual to AI-assisted assessments, here are some practical steps to help you get started.

1. Assess your current system

Identify pain points in your current assessment process. Are trainers overwhelmed by workload? Are there inconsistencies in grading that impact learner outcomes? Understanding your challenges will help you determine where AI can offer easy wins and add the most value.

2. Choose the right AI tools

There are numerous AI-powered assessment tools available, from automated grading systems to virtual learning environments. Choose tools that best fit your specific needs, whether it’s reducing the administrative burden, improving grading consistency, or enhancing learner engagement.

3. Train your staff

Transitioning to AI-assisted assessments requires buy-in from your trainers and assessors. Provide training sessions that familiarise your team with the AI tools being implemented and demonstrate how they can enhance their roles.

4. Pilot AI-assisted assessments

Start with a pilot program to test AI-assisted assessments on a smaller scale. Gather feedback from both apprentices and trainers to refine your approach before rolling it out across all programs.
