(D3) About Short Answer Feedback Assistant (Enhanced)

The Short Answer Feedback Assistant (SAFA) provides auto-generated content-related feedback and suggested marks for free-response questions for any subject and level. It can also be combined with Annotated Feedback Assistant to provide feedback for both language and content related feedback.

1. Your teacher may add tool(s) to a Free-Response Question.

2. You may submit your response to the question, by clicking Submit Quiz.

   Note:
   You can upload PDFs or images as part of your response for assessment by SAFA. You may also upload Google Files by clicking on ‘Embed File from Google’, and selecting your file.

   • Submit Quiz if you are responding to a quiz;

   • Submit if you are responding to a standalone question or in a Progressive Quiz.
     

3. To review your feedback and marks, click Feedback.

4. You may also receive feedback based on a set of rubrics.

   • Note: Feedback generated by Short Answer Feedback Assistant will be clearly labelled with "Short Answer Feedback Assistant" and accompanied by a SALiS icon, to indicate that feedback is provided by AI.

5. If Annotated Feedback Assistant (AFA) is enabled, you may also receive language and content related feedback. Review the errors detected by AFA reflected on the annotation cards. To view more details of the error, click on the speech bubble icon on the annotation cards.
   

   • Note:
     As SAFA uses generative AI, its response is probabilistic in nature and this results in it being inaccurate at times. You are encouraged to reflect on the feedback received and discuss the feedback and marks with your teacher if you need further explanation.
