This Forum Insight summarises the background and preliminary findings from the research undertaken by Geraldine O’Neill of UCD Teaching & Learning as part of her National Forum Teaching and Learning Research Fellowship, concluded in December 2021.
This project presents an innovative engineering assessment framework integrating generative AI through a poster portfolio, AI reflection, and oral interview. It supports critical thinking, validation skills, and ethical AI use, and is designed for undergraduate engineering educators and students in project-based learning contexts.
