I expect universities to adapt quickly, lest lose their whole business as degrees will not carry the same meaning to employers.
I can dream, can't I?
Not really, there are plenty of things that LLMs cannot do that a professor could make his students do. It is just a asymmetric attack on the professor's (or whomever is grading) time to do that.
IMO, credentials shouldn't be given to those who test or submit assignments without proctoring (a lot of schools allow this).
Name three?
2. Make take home stuff only a requirement to be able to participate in the final exam. This effectively means cheating on them will only hinder you and not affect your grading directly.
3. Make take home stuff optional and completely detached from grading. Put everything into the final exam.
My uni does a mix them on different courses. Especially two and three though have a significant negative impact on passing rates as they tend to push everything onto one single exam instead of spread out work over the semester.
Could you offer some examples? I'm having a hard time thinking of what could be at the intersection of "hard enough for SotA LLMs" yet "easy enough for students (who are still learning, not experts in their fields, etc)".
A big downer on the online/remote Initiatives for learning but actually an advantage for older Unis that already have existing physical facilities for students.
This does however also have some problems similar to code interviews .
Everyone knows how to type questions into a chat box, yet whenever something doesn’t work as advertised with the LLMs, the response here is, “you’re holding it wrong”.
