Governance

From policy document to live assessment

Five steps, each of which you can inspect.

  1. 1

    Your institution sets policy

    You already have this. It says what AI use is acceptable, in what circumstances, across what kinds of work.

  2. 2

    The educator translates it into two settings on an assessment

    How much AI use this piece of work permits, and the Validity Threshold the work needs to reach. This is the link that usually doesn't exist: the point where a document becomes an instruction on a specific assignment.

    The AI Use Level is chosen from the five design levels of the Artificial Intelligence Assessment Scale (AIAS). Based on the Artificial Intelligence Assessment Scale (AIAS), developed by Perkins, Furze, Roe and MacVaugh.

  3. 3

    The student works, with feedback available throughout

    Writing Feedback Plus operates across the drafting process. This step is the one most governance models leave out, and it is the one that changes the outcome rather than recording it.

  4. 4

    The student demonstrates command of the work

    Against the standard the educator set. The finding returns in the same framework the setting came from, so it reads in your language, not ours.

  5. 5

    The educator decides

    Where the standard is established, that's recorded. Where it isn't, the work and the contributing factors go to the educator. No adverse finding is ever generated automatically.

A mechanism you can inspect

You can inspect it end to end, on a real assessment, and see your policy become a setting.

What the institution sees

Configuration and coverage across assessments where it is switched on.
