Explore the Research Behind AI Validation
The AI Validation White Paper examines how AI can support assessment generation and quality evaluation and why structured validation and expert judgment need to work together.
What Does Trustworthy AI Assessment Require?
Our ongoing research with LIST and UOC explores responsible AI for assessment generation and validation. It treats question creation and quality review as separate tasks, with experts retaining final judgment.
Quality Beyond Generation
AI can generate plausible assessment content quickly, but quality depends on more than fluency. Items still need to be evaluated for accuracy, clarity, alignment and suitability for their intended use.
Validation Against Clear Criteria
Structured evaluation gives assessment teams a consistent way to identify potential issues and focus expert attention where it matters most.
Human Judgment at the Center
AI can support generation, evaluation and review, but assessment professionals remain responsible for interpreting results and deciding what is approved for learner use.
