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...

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

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...

For me, the biggest difference has been in feedback rather than assessment itself.I use ChatGPT mostly to help me structure feedback, spot patterns, or rethink how I respond to student work, especially writing. But I still end up adapting most of it myself. That part still feels important to me because that’s where I really see the student. What’s helped most is changing the prompts. Less:...

This is a fascinating idea. Do you mind if I share this with the teachers in our programs (Mark Cuban Foundation AI Bootcamps) and possibly in our newsletter?

I mostly use AI to detect common mistakes in an assignment I have given and also to come up with suggestions for revision prompts, ways to suggest revising certain grammar areas or vocabulary depending on students' performance. Sometimes, I also get the help of AI, ChatGPT or Gemini, in order to quickly come up with some questions in order to encourage reflection about what they found...

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...

My school is a Professional Learning Communities based school, so RTI (response to intervention) is part of our schedule and practice. We are beginning to explore using AI generated rubrics with "I can..." statements based on an essential standard attached to the rubric. We hope this will not only allow teachers to pin point data for more efficient student intervention, but also allow...

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,...
