How are you using AI for assessment and feedback?

For me, the biggest shift with AI in assessment and feedback has not been automating judgment, but creating better feedback loops that are more timely, visible, and more actionable for students. I still see the teacher as the expert in the room, but AI has helped me scale formative feedback in ways that were not sustainable before.In my NCEA science classes, students often submit work...

I use Curipod for instant in class feedback and my students really appreciate it. I know because I have asked them. The teacher moderator screen also lets me give them feedback as they are writing their answers so I can confirm they are doing the right thing or point them in the right direction. For junior classes and low level work they have handed in via Teams, I have a couple of Gemini Gems...

When you are new to AI, it will feel faster to do the work on your own, but it's part of learning how to use chatbots properly. People tend to use them like Google (short keyword based questions vs conversations). The more you use them, the better you understand how to "talk" to them. Consider these tips next time:1. Enable "Thinking" in ChatGPT or Gemini or "Expert" & "Deep Thinking in...

Hi Fenia - does your college / institute allow you to use ChatGPT? Its been taken off our AI tools list as the data goes out to 3rd party. We use Google Workspace for education Plus at GLLM as all data doesnt leave our domain

In Spanish and French lessons, I set up low-stakes speaking tasks or assessments; for that I use easy to use AI agents or tools like Mizou or SchoolAI to create conversational personas, such as a waiter in Madrid or a receptionist at a Parisian cafe. My pupils simply put on headphones and engage in a two-to-three-minute spoken dialogue with the AI, which automatically transcribes the...

One of my favorite classroom routines was what I called the Check Your Understanding, or CYU. At the startof class, students would find two to four questions on the screen and write out their answers before anythingelse happened. The questions came from the previous night’s material: a problem to solve, a paragraph tosummarize, a concept to explain in their own words. It grounded the class,...

Thanks so much, Jeffrey! We'd love to have you join our next cohort if you're interested! It's free, and it sounds like you would be able to contribute a lot!

I’d like to know more.

The tools are SchoolAI, Claude, Gemini for Google Workspace, and NotebookLM. SchoolAI is my managed student-facing layer. Gemini handles planning and synthesis inside Google Workspace. NotebookLM keeps my work grounded in real sources, while creating engaging outputs of different resources and options for study skills.Claude is where the heavy lifting happens. Unit building, standards...
