How it Works
The goal of the Automated Feedback tool has been to help instructors save time and energy by automating recurring review tasks. The automated feedback tool reviews students' work based on criteria set by the instructor. Criteria range from straightforward checks to actionable in-line feedback, suggestions, and compliments regarding students' academic writing.
Some examples are
- Content Checks: whether the written work contains all required sections
- Figures & Table Checks: Whether figures have captions and if they are being referred to in the text
- Academic writing checks: whether abbreviations are properly introduced and whether verb tenses are consistently used
- Citation checks: reference formatting
- Layout Checks: layout of written work
