Exploring the Perception of Indian Educators Towards Use of Generative AI Tools for Assessment

Abstract

Educational ecosystem has always kept pace with the technological development. Stakeholders in education have had an agile reaction to the progress happening outside the classroom and have embraced these changes at the earliest for their own benefits. While students have readily accepted the free tools, there is a raging debate on the view of educators regarding the same. The present research focuses on teachers and educators who teach at undergraduate and post-graduate students of management and assimilates their opinion on the use of artificial intelligence, in one of the key aspects of the educational journey, i.e., assessment. In the research carried out engaging insights were brought forth in terms of educators preferences regarding the use of artificial intelligence for assessment and how they perceive it to help students and themselves. At the same time, the research has also shown the limitations that educators feel regarding the use of artificial intelligence from an Indian perspective, due to the sheer number of human power involved in the Indian Education System.
