How It Works

The AI Feedback system has three simple steps: you create an assignment with a rubric, students submit their work, and the AI generates detailed feedback based on your rubric.

You Create
Set up the assignment and rubric
Students Submit
Upload or paste their work
AI Grades
Detailed feedback in seconds
1

Create an Assignment

From your Feedback Dashboard (accessible from the main dashboard), click Create Assignment. Fill in the details:

Title
Name the assignment (e.g., "Persuasive Essay: School Uniforms").
Description
Describe what students should submit. The AI uses this to understand the assignment context when generating feedback, so be specific.
Due Date Optional
Set a deadline if needed. Students can still submit after the due date.
Class Optional
Assign to a specific class to keep things organized.

Build a Rubric (or Let AI Do It)

The rubric tells the AI how to evaluate student work. Each criterion has a name, point value, and description.

Example rubric for a persuasive essay:

CriterionPointsDescription
Thesis Statement25Clear, arguable thesis that takes a position
Evidence & Support30Uses specific examples, facts, or quotes
Organization20Logical flow with introduction, body, conclusion
Grammar & Mechanics25Proper spelling, punctuation, sentence structure
Shortcut: Generate with AI
Don't want to build a rubric from scratch? Click "Generate with AI" and the AI will create a complete rubric based on your assignment description. It costs 1 credit and typically produces 4–6 well-structured criteria totaling 100 points. You can then edit it to your liking.
3

Choose a Submission Mode

This controls how students interact with the assignment. Pick the one that fits your workflow:

Students submit, teacher reviews first

AI generates feedback immediately, but students don't see it until you release it. This lets you review and adjust the AI feedback before sharing.

Students submit and see feedback immediately

Students get AI feedback the moment they submit. Great for drafts, practice assignments, or when you want instant turnaround.

Teacher submits student work (private)

You collect the work yourself and submit it on behalf of students. Useful for grading papers you already have, or for younger students.

4

Share the Link with Students

After saving the assignment, you'll get a submission link. Share it with your class however you normally do — paste it in your LMS, email it, or post it on a class page.

Students visit the link, then either:

  • Upload a file (.txt, .docx, or .pdf — up to 10MB)
  • Paste their text directly into the form
If Require Login is enabled, students need a Quiz Link Pro account. If not, they simply enter their name.
5

AI Generates Feedback

When a student submits, the AI reads their work, evaluates it against your rubric, and generates:

Score

An overall score (0–100) based on rubric criteria

Strengths

What the student did well

Areas for Improvement

Specific weaknesses to address

Actionable Steps

Concrete things the student can do to improve


Detailed Comments

A paragraph of overall feedback tying everything together

AI feedback costs 1 credit per 5 submissions. So you can grade 5 student papers before a credit is used.

6

Review & Release Feedback

If you chose the "teacher reviews first" mode, visit the Review page for your assignment to:

  • See all submissions and their AI-generated feedback
  • Read and adjust the AI feedback if needed
  • Release feedback to individual students or all at once

Students receive a unique link to view their feedback. The feedback page shows their score (color-coded), strengths, improvements, actionable steps, and detailed comments.

Tip: Even in "immediate feedback" mode, you can always go back and review or edit the AI feedback from your dashboard.
