Beyond Simple Input-Output Assessment Tasks: Leveraging Automated Programming Assessment for Non-Trivial Courses

The article discusses how machine learning exercises can be designed for automated assessment tools, framing them as deterministic input-output tasks. It emphasizes that this approach does not create a new grading system but enables existing platforms (e.g., VPL for Moodle, Codeforces, MOJ) to support AI education more effectively. The authors argue that integrating theory with practice through such exercises can foster dynamic, interactive AI courses.

Generative AI performance in core undergraduate mathematics: a curriculum-level case study

The study examines how generative AI tools like ChatGPT perform on typical first‑year undergraduate mathematics assessment questions. By generating, transcribing, and blind‑marking AI responses to eight assessments covering the entire curriculum, the authors find that AI attains a first‑class level of performance, with consistency across modules that exceeds that of students in invigilated exams. The results suggest a need to redesign mathematics assessments to address the impact of generative AI.
