Q04
Long Text
In the next section, we will ask about your views on AI-assisted grading and assessment. By "AI-assisted grading," we mean the use of artificial intelligence tools that can help evaluate student work — for example, automated scoring of written assignments, AI-generated feedback suggestions, or AI-flagged inconsistencies in grading. These tools are designed to assist faculty, not replace their judgment. Please keep this description in mind as you answer the following questions.
Q05
Long Text
How open would you be to using AI-assisted tools as part of your grading and assessment process?
Q06
Long Text
How concerned are you that AI-assisted grading tools could introduce or perpetuate biases in student assessment?
Q07
Long Text
How concerned are you about student data privacy when student work is processed by AI-assisted grading systems?
Q08
Long Text
How prepared do you currently feel to use AI-assisted grading tools effectively?
Q09
Long Text
Researchers are exploring the possibility of conducting controlled experiments to evaluate AI-assisted grading tools. These experiments would involve faculty volunteers grading a set of student assignments both with and without AI assistance, then comparing outcomes such as grading consistency, time spent, and student satisfaction. Participation would typically require 3–5 hours over a semester and would be compensated. All data would be anonymized.
