The Double Crisis Integrity of Evaluation and Efficacy of Pedagogy in the Era of Generative  AI

Main Article Content

Luca Angelelli

Abstract

The advent of generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools is provoking a seismic event in the academic world, triggering a "double crisis" that impacts both the integrity of evaluation and the efficacy of consolidated pedagogical methods. This article analyzes the nature of this crisis, examining the specific challenges faced by students, from the risk of atrophy of critical thinking to the difficult management of technological plagiarism, and by faculty, who are called to radically rethink their roles as evaluators and educators, as well as by institutions, prompted to rethink tools and formative objectives. The response to the crisis cannot be mere prohibition, but a redesign of assignments and the promotion of new competencies, transforming the educator from a "guardian of knowledge" to a "curator of critical thinking" in the new ecosystem where man and machine are destined for a profound interaction.
