The Imperial College Business School IDEA Lab has introduced a ‘Generative AI stress test’ for all their taught module assessments. This comprises a four-phase process (Analyse, Review, Collaborate, Adapt) designed not only to evaluate and mitigate potential vulnerabilities in their assessments due to potential use of generative AI tools by students, but also to provide insights for staff into how students use AI tools.

The insights are anticipated to help support students and staff to use generative AI tools effectively and appropriately, ensure equal access to AI resources, and foster collaboration among faculty and drive innovative teaching methods and assessment design while upholding academic integrity. The focal point of the stress test comprises a meeting between a faculty member and staff from the IDEA lab in which past indicative assessments are tested against Chat-GPT4, Bard and Claude 2 using 6 criteria: accuracy, clarity, relevance, compliance, referencing, ease of use.
