AI is transforming assessment feedback — giving students detailed responses on assignments within seconds rather than days.
What AI Grading Does Well
- Grammar, structure, and clarity feedback on writing
- Math problem step-by-step checking
- Code review and debugging suggestions
- Multiple-choice and short-answer grading
- Consistent rubric application across large classes
What AI Grading Cannot Replace
- Nuanced evaluation of original ideas
- Understanding a student's growth over time
- Holistic assessment of complex arguments
- Human relationship and encouragement
Best Approach
Use AI for formative feedback on drafts. Reserve teacher time for summative assessment and high-stakes evaluation.
