Assignment AI assistant (Beta feature)

Learn how to use AI assistant in the Assignment widget.

Updated over a week ago

The AI-powered Assignment feedback feature brings instant, personalized feedback to essay-style assignments. Participants can submit their responses as a text comment, PDF upload, audio, or video recording. The admin sets clear evaluation criteria that define what a successful response should include and can also provide an evaluation prompt β€” guidelines that shape how the AI delivers feedback, such as structuring it into positive and constructive comments written directly to the participant.
​
Once a participant submits their response, AI automatically compares it against the criteria and instructions, and instantly provides feedback. Alongside individual feedback, the AI generates a summary of all participant responses for the admin β€” highlighting common themes, strengths, and areas for improvement. This summary is visible by default only to the admin but can be shared with participants if the admin chooses to enable it in the widget settings.

How to use the feature?

This feature can be turned on in the Assignment widget settings, under AI.

Once the feature has been enabled you can view the Evaluation criteria, Evaluation prompt, and Analysis prompt. For each we have set default prompts that you can refine and edit to your specific needs.

What do these mean?

  • Evaluation criteria: Defines the correct answer or the specific criteria used to evaluate participants' responses, clearly specifying what they must meet or provide to satisfy the assignment requirements.

  • Evaluation prompt: Guidelines on how the AI assistant will assess participants' responses, including the criteria used for evaluation.

  • Analysis prompt: Guidelines on how the AI assistant should review all feedback items and conduct an analysis.

For the Analysis, you can choose whether or not it is visible to users. The analysis is refreshed manually in the widget settings and remains unchanged until you refresh and save it again. Hi

How does it look like for the participant?

Once a participant submits their response, AI automatically compares it against the criteria and instructions, and instantly provides feedback. The feedback appears below the participant answer.

Please note that the evaluation applies only to each Assignment submission, not to replies to those submissions.
