The Faculty of Education at the University of the Basque Country (UPV/EHU) changed its final degree project evaluation this academic year: the oral defense before the panel rises from 10% to 30% of the grade, with the remaining 70% tied to continuous tutoring. Dean Joserra Díez says the aim is to safeguard authorship of the projects given the possibility that an AI generator writes the written report. The faculty also set up a committee on artificial intelligence to diagnose how these platforms are used across courses.
