AI Student Coaching: First Results from the Classroom

Come see the results of how AI Coaching of students performed in the online classroom and hear both instructor and student perspectives on using AI to provide real-time feedback assistance that promotes constructive learning.

Harmonize’s rubric coach helps the instructor build a rubric based on their assignment or discussion prompt and then allows instructors to enable real-time feedback designed to make the student pause and self-assess using the instructor’s rubric. The goal is to trigger the students to go through productive revisions in real-time so that their work is more complete and helpful to their classmates, and so that the instructor is grading the student’s best efforts.

Key Takeaways:

  • Understand how AI can use instructor inputs to guide coaching of students in real-time.
  • Understand instructor and student perspectives of the use of AI for this purpose.

Intended Audience:

Institutional Effectiveness, Distance Education Leaders, Center for Teaching and Learning, and Directors of Assessment
