In this illuminating episode of Deep Learning Dialogues, we explore how educators can transform assessment practices in the age of AI. Our guest Michelle Sengara shares a powerful framework for "harmonized intelligence" that balances subject matter expertise with technical skills and human connection. Discover why assessment should be the first educational lever we consider—not the last—and how AI can serve as a design partner rather than a replacement for human judgment. This conversation offers both hope and practical strategies for educators navigating technology integration while preserving what matters most: meaningful human learning experiences.
As Director of Academic Innovation at York University, and a leading education strategist and consultant, Michelle Sengara is shaping the future of technology-enhanced learning. Her research and design work reimagines education as a dynamic ecosystem of interactions that foster Harmonized Intelligence®—the seamless integration of subject matter expertise, relevant technical aptitudes, and essential human capacities within ANY educational experience.
Because in a world of artificial intelligence, education needs to provide spaces and places where people can learn within relevant digital contexts, and with an emphasis on how we as humans are uniquely able to engage with information and ideas in versatile and valuable ways.
