Experts and education leaders warned that current assessment systems risk being undermined by generative AI even as new tools promise new evaluation methods. A Chronicle opinion argued that AI is disrupting how institutions measure learning and that rushing to algorithmic fixes could 'break assessment' before better alternatives are in place. In response to the AI shift, ETS launched a short, scenario‑based Futurenav Adapt AI test to help states and districts gauge teachers’ capacity to use AI ethically and effectively in classrooms. The 30‑minute tool evaluates recognition of LLMs, ethical navigation, tool evaluation and practical classroom use. ETS said the test is not yet a licensure instrument but positions the organization to respond if states fold AI topics into certification standards. Together the pieces underscore a two‑track dynamic: K‑12 and higher‑education systems face pressure to adapt assessment frameworks rapidly while seeking practical diagnostic tools that measure educators’ readiness to integrate AI safely into instruction.
