• In Event: Transforming Assessment and Learning: Harnessing AI for Educational Excellence

Abstract

A content analysis of popular, public, active Facebook groups focused on educational uses of AI to investigate educator's utilization of AI in K-12 assessment. Using the Technology Integration Model, we analyzed posts to evaluate the use of AI across subjects and grade levels. The findings reveal a progression from entry-level engagement, where educators show a positive outlook and seek guidance, to active adoption, enhancing assessment creation and grading. At the 3rd level (adaptation), educators use AI for peer review and personalized assessment creation. The infusion level sees full integration of AI for innovative content delivery and student inclusion in assessment practices. Finally, at the transformation level, educators utilize AI to foster critical thinking, personalize learning experiences, and enhance feedback.
