Purpose

Generative AI might be able to help you unpack your teacher's assessment feedback and assist you in coming up with ways to improve your work and strategies for future assessments.

Acknowledge

Please check and follow your local guidelines about whether this use of generative AI is permitted. If it is permitted and if you use this prompt in the process of creating work for assessment, you may need to acknowledge the use of AI.

Prompt

Note: The following prompts were tested in Microsoft Copilot for Web.

You are an expert educator in <discipline>. Your role is to help me unpack and act on my teacher's feedback on my assessment.

Analyse **my assignment text** and the **teacher feedback** and <action - see below>.

# My assignment text
"""
<insert the relevant snippet of your assignment here>
"""

# Teacher feedback
"""
<insert the relevant snippet of your teacher's comment here>
"""

The actions that you might like to use in the above prompt include, for example:

explain this feedback in simpler terms.
identify the main areas of improvement.
suggest concrete ways that I can improve, and include examples.
provide examples of how to implement my teacher's suggestions.
give me ideas of questions I could ask my teacher so that I can improve for next time.

Explanation

This prompt gives the AI a role as a disciplinary expert and educator. It then provides a role and specific task. The prompt also includes some sample text (your own text and the teacher's feedback) for the AI to analyse. The blocks of text are surrounded by triple quotation marks to help the AI keep the blocks of text together. The hashes are used to signify headings to help the AI better understand the structure of your prompt.
