This demo evaluates applied problem-solving and evidence-based reasoning. Students must interpret and use a mathematical model (like an equation) to determine if a real-world claim is accurate. Here you'll assess both computational accuracy and the ability to interpret and justify quantitative results - to solve a real-world problem about being charged for a rideshare. With Feedback Aide, scorers can quickly verify accurate calculation and reasoning, then generate instant, standards-aligned learner feedback.
What should I do?
1. Start by clicking 'Generate Feedback' for each response.
2. After these are scored by Feedback Aide, review the 'Summary of feedback' to see the justifications behind the scores.
3. Need to change something? Use Manual Grading to fine-tune the feedback, then click 'Submit scores' when you’re ready.
What is a Short Response – STEM?
A short response STEM item asks students to solve a math or science problem based on a scenario and to explain their reasoning. Students earn points for using correct math or science contepts and giving clear, logical explanations. This type of item builds real-world problem-solving skills and supports clear communication in math and science.
