Benefit of this resource and how to make the best use of it
Since late 2022, the sudden growth in the availability and capabilities of generative artificial intelligence tools, such as Large Language Models, has raised concerns about the threat they pose to the integrity of assessment in educational institutions. Such models are constantly evolving and improving, making the task of understanding exactly what they can do more difficult. Recognising this challenge, this paper establishes a Large Language Model exposure framework to qualitatively and quantitatively examine the assessment strategies of university modules to provide a high-level estimated indication of the exposure of these modules to potential dishonest use of such models in the completion of their assessments and coursework. This framework may be used and adapted when planning and reviewing teaching and learning practices and policies.

This OER presents findings from a comparative study of novice programmers engaging in face-to-face and hybrid pair programming. It explores collaboration patterns, role switching, satisfaction, and challenges, offering evidence-based insights for educators seeking to prepare students for effective teamwork in modern hybrid software development.
This OER explores novice programmers’ experiences of pair programming across face-to-face, hybrid, and remote settings. It provides insights into collaboration, role switching, satisfaction, and challenges, helping educators and students understand how to effectively prepare learners for modern hybrid software development environments.
This OER guides students through human-in-the-loop software development, demonstrating how AI tools can be effectively supervised, refined, and integrated across the Software Lifecycle. Designed for computing educators and learners, it combines agile practice, teamwork, DISC awareness, testing, and critical reflection on human–AI collaboration.
