In this demo, a teacher uses sources to assess use of textual evidence and interpretation of figurative language. By providing Feedback Aide with the passage the learners are responding to, Feedback Aide automatically recognizes references to the source in the student response and uses the rubric to ensure the evidence and analysis given is relevant to the text passage.
Teachers save time while still delivering targeted essay feedback, and students receive clear guidance on how to deepen their analysis and use evidence more effectively. Responses 1, 2, and 3 show varying degrees of mastery, as can be seen by the feedback.
1. Start by choosing a response and then clicking 'Generate Feedback'.
2. Feedback Aide now scores the response: Review both the rubric and the 'Feedback to learner' to see the evaluation and suggestions for improvement.
3. The human grader has final say. Interact with the rubric to adjust scores and edit the feedback to the learner as needed.
Score depth, structure, and source use—at scale.
A source in an assessment is a passage, excerpt, image, map, graph, or other stimulus that students must interpret and analyze to complete a task. Sources ground student thinking in specific content and allow tasks to assess not just recall or opinion, but interpretation, reasoning, and evidence use. This helps build the skills students need not just for academic success, but for interpreting texts and information in the real world.
Our AI evaluates how well learners use sources, develop ideas, and cite appropriately—tailored to your rubric.
