Promoting learning and preventing cheating

Documentation from Lunch 'n' Learn 10 May 2023

Published May 22, 2023

How can teachers, students and institutions take measures to prevent cheating and, at the same time, promote learning? Viggo Kann and Camilla Björn from the School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, and Ninni Carlsund and Magnus Andersson from the School of Engineering Sciences talk about this in this webinar.

The subject is covered in several dimensions and during the webinar we get concrete advice on how we can build a healthier culture at KTH - as well as how we can think about AI as both a challenge and a resource. The presentation touches on learning and cheating from several perspectives; student, teacher and the university perspective.
