1. Which of the following is a capability of AI when creating museum exhibit labels?

   1. AI can produce label variants tuned for different reading levels
   2. AI can verify the authenticity of historical objects
   3. AI can independently research and confirm provenance
   4. AI can replace curators in making interpretive decisions

2. What is a key limitation of using AI to write museum exhibit labels?

   1. AI cannot generate text that is engaging to read
   2. AI cannot adapt labels for different word counts
   3. AI cannot include sensory descriptions of objects
   4. AI cannot reliably verify factual claims like dates and provenance

3. After AI generates an exhibit label, what must curators verify?

   1. All factual claims, especially dates and provenance
   2. The aesthetic quality of the writing style
   3. Whether the label uses exciting vocabulary
   4. The emotional impact on visitors

4. What is the purpose of a tactile-description version of an exhibit label?

   1. To describe an object's physical qualities for visitors who cannot see it
   2. To add texture images to the label design
   3. To make the label physically raised so visitors can touch it
   4. To describe how the object feels when touched by staff

5. Why can AI not replace curator authority when creating exhibit labels?

   1. Curators are required by law to write all labels
   2. Curators are faster at writing than AI
   3. Curators have scholarly expertise and institutional knowledge that AI lacks
   4. Curators have better handwriting than AI

6. In museum contexts, what does the term 'provenance' refer to?

   1. The documented history of ownership and origin of an object
   2. The monetary value of an object
   3. The physical location where an object is displayed
   4. The artistic style or movement an object represents

7. When AI 'hallucinates' information in museum labels, what typically happens?

   1. AI makes the text too creative and hard to understand
   2. AI accidentally deletes accurate information
   3. AI invents plausible-sounding but false dates, names, or origins
   4. AI creates imaginary visual images for the label

8. In the example task, how many word-count variants of a label is the AI asked to produce?

   1. Three variants (50, 100, and 200 words)
   2. Two variants at opposite extremes
   3. One variant of exactly 150 words
   4. Five variants ranging from 10 to 500 words

9. What is the primary reason museums generate exhibit labels at multiple reading levels?

   1. To show off AI's technical capabilities
   2. To create more visually interesting displays
   3. To make exhibitions accessible to visitors with varying literacy skills
   4. To reduce the workload of museum staff

10. What is required to ensure factual accuracy in AI-generated museum labels?

    1. Running the AI program multiple times
    2. Using the most expensive AI model available
    3. Adding more descriptive language to the labels
    4. Human expert review and verification of all claims

11. What distinguishes the 'creators' tier in this curriculum?

    1. Learners explore AI concepts for the first time
    2. Learners produce original content using AI tools
    3. Learners evaluate AI outputs for accuracy
    4. Learners study how AI systems are built

12. Why is accessibility a key consideration when writing museum exhibit labels?

    1. To meet legal requirements that are more strict for museums
    2. To reduce the amount of text staff must write
    3. To make labels easier for AI to generate
    4. To ensure all visitors can engage with content regardless of ability or background

13. What risk does a museum take if it uses AI-generated labels without curator review?

    1. The labels will automatically improve over time
    2. The labels will likely be rejected by visitors
    3. The labels may contain false historical information presented as fact
    4. The AI will charge the museum for the work

14. Who has final authority over the content of museum exhibit labels?

    1. The visitor feedback survey results
    2. The AI system that generated the text
    3. The museum's marketing department
    4. The curator or curatorial team

15. What makes an exhibit label 'accessible' to a broad audience?

    1. The label is written at an appropriate reading level for diverse visitors
    2. The label includes colorful images
    3. The label is displayed at a convenient height
    4. The label is printed on durable materials
