1. What is the central goal of using AI for the workflow described in 'Grading Speed-Ups With AI'?

   1. To replace teacher judgment with automated decisions
   2. To eliminate the need for student feedback
   3. To save time while improving the quality of outputs related to rubric scoring
   4. To make grading slower but more thorough

2. Which action best matches a recommended use of AI for rubric scoring?

   1. Multiple choice and matching items (very accurate)
   2. Asking AI to grade student work without any oversight
   3. Posting raw AI output to students without editing
   4. Letting AI choose which students get extra help based on names

3. What guideline matters most when working with AI on rubric scoring?

   1. Trust the first draft AI produces every time
   2. Scan tests.
   3. Skip the review step if you're short on time
   4. Avoid editing AI output to preserve neutrality

4. Who primarily benefits from a teacher's effective use of AI for rubric scoring?

   1. Only the teacher, since students are unaffected
   2. Software vendors, who track usage data
   3. Both the teacher (time saved) and students (clearer, faster outputs)
   4. Administrators only, through compliance reports

5. Which is an inappropriate way to use AI for rubric scoring?

   1. Drafting a first version that you refine
   2. Generating ideas to spark your own thinking
   3. Blindly publishing AI text without review
   4. Using AI to brainstorm options to choose from

6. What detail makes an AI prompt about rubric scoring most effective?

   1. Keeping the request as vague as possible
   2. Adding context about grade level, audience, and goal
   3. Asking for the longest possible response
   4. Avoiding any examples or constraints

7. Which option reflects another recommended approach for rubric scoring?

   1. Refusing to iterate on the AI's first draft
   2. Short answer with clear correct/incorrect
   3. Using only one prompt and accepting whatever returns
   4. Sharing student names with AI for personalization

8. What student data should generally NOT be pasted into a public AI tool when working on rubric scoring?

   1. A generic assignment prompt
   2. Identifiable student names paired with grades or accommodations
   3. An anonymized writing sample for feedback
   4. A rubric template you wrote yourself

9. What is a realistic outcome of using AI well for rubric scoring?

   1. Eliminating all teacher work entirely
   2. A noticeable reduction in time spent on routine prep or feedback
   3. Guaranteed perfect student performance
   4. Replacement of all curriculum standards

10. How can AI help when you need to adapt rubric scoring for different learners?

    1. By generating tiered versions for different reading or skill levels
    2. By forcing all students to receive identical materials
    3. By replacing IEP accommodations with generic content
    4. By choosing which students need help based on demographics

    1. AI works best when teachers never review the output
    2. Grading is often the most time-consuming part of teaching.
    3. AI removes the need for clear learning goals
    4. AI eliminates the value of student-teacher relationships

12. Which is a red flag that AI output for rubric scoring needs revision before use?

    1. It cites sources that you cannot verify exist
    2. It uses clear, simple language
    3. It matches your learning objectives
    4. It is appropriate for your students' reading level

13. What is a sensible workflow when using AI to support rubric scoring?

    1. Send raw output to students, then check it later
    2. Plan goal, prompt AI, review and edit, then deliver
    3. Skip planning and let AI dictate the goal
    4. Edit only after parents complain

14. How should a teacher handle transparency about using AI for rubric scoring?
