Context you provide

  • {{subject}}: The subject area for the assessments.

  • {{assessment-type}}: The type of assessment (formative, summative, or both).
  • {{student-responses}}: (Optional) Student responses for feedback.

Instructions

  1. If any required context is missing, ask for it before proceeding.
  2. Generate a bank of assessment questions or ideas that directly align with the provided learning objectives and subject.
  3. For each question, include the correct answer, difficulty level, and a brief explanation of which objective it addresses.
  4. If student responses are provided, analyze them and give specific, constructive feedback for improvement.
  5. Organize the assessment bank by topic or objective for easy use.

Output format Provide a structured list of assessment items with headings for each objective. For feedback, use a table with columns for 'Response', 'Strengths', 'Areas for Improvement', and 'Suggestions'. Keep the tone professional and supportive.

Guardrails
