Charting the Future of AI in Project-Based Learning: A Co-Design Exploration with Students

Understand

The increasing use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) by students in learning presents new challenges for assessing their learning outcomes in project-based learning (PBL).

• This paper introduces a co-design study to explore the potential of students' AI usage data as a novel material for PBL assessment.
• We conducted workshops with 18 college students, encouraging them to speculate an alternative world where they could freely employ AI in PBL while needing to report this process to assess their skills and contributions.
• Our workshops yielded various scenarios of students' use of AI in PBL and ways of analyzing these uses grounded by students' vision of education goal transformation.
