Lecturers are considering a return to traditional pen and paper tests to combat the rising use of AI by students.
Teaching staff at Scottish universities said the number of students using artificial intelligence (AI) to write all or part of their coursework has soared in the past few months as services such as ChatGPT become more widely available.
ChatGPT is one of the most popular AI programmes and is able to write articles in seconds by taking information from sources online.
Teachers fear the only way to tackle the problem is by making students write their assignments on pen and paper and on campus, rather than at home, as traditional plagiarism checks are being duped by the advances in technology.
One lecturer at Strathclyde University said: “When I’m marking assessments, I see students who’ve put references citing where they got their information from. They look like real references but, when you look them up, they don’t lead anywhere – they are fake. It’s becoming impossible to detect everything.”
Normally lecturers use software to scan student homework and it detects if it has been copied from online sources. But AI has become sophisticated enough to fool the checks.
The lecturer added: “My colleagues and I are really concerned. We’re seeing it more in international students than domestic students so I’m not sure if it’s a language barrier problem or a culture problem.
"We’ve talked about how to tackle it and are considering bringing back pen and paper tests and assignments to make it more difficult for students to use these programmes to do their coursework.”
Another lecturer, at Stirling University, said they had also seen a rise over the past six months, with about 20 per cent of assessments showing signs of AI
