Research project AutoGrAIde: an interdisciplinary university-wide hackathon that asks students the question of whether and how should AI be used in automating grading, 19 January 2022.
The autoGrAIde hackathon challenged interdisciplinary teams of students during a one-day hackathon, the 19 January 2022, on the question of whether and how to automate grading. Besides engaging in an interdisciplinary collaborative learning activity, autogrAIde empowers students by participating in a process that affects them directly.
As AI is becoming a major social factor, discussions about AI need to be illuminated from multiple viewpoints. AutogrAIde is dedicated to creating university-wide bridges across six disciplines: computer science, design, pedagogy, informatics, philosophy, and law.
The project yielded the following paper:
Vanhée, L., Danielsson, K., Enqvist, L., Grill, K., & Borit, M. (2024). Hack it with EDUCHIC! Educational hackathons and interdisciplinary challenges—Definitions, principles, and pedagogical guidelines. European Journal of Education, 59(3), e12658.
