(C1,iii) Add Short Answer Feedback Assistant (ShortAnsFA)

The Short Answer Feedback Assistant (ShortAnsFA) provides suggested marks and auto-generated content-related feedback for close-ended, short answer questions for any subject and level.

Important:

As ShortAnsFA uses generative AI, its response is probabilistic in nature. Thus, it may not be suitable for questions involving mathematical computation and may at times be inaccurate. Teachers should review the feedback generated before returning it to students. ShortAnsFA's capabilities will be continually improved over time and schools can keep a lookout for the latest improvements via the Singapore Learning Designers Circle (SgLDC) Facebook group.
Use ShortAnsFA for questions with answers which have short phrases or clearly defined marking points.
ShortAnsFA can only be added in a Free-Response Question as part of a Teacher-Marked Quiz.
File Submission is disabled when using ShortAnsFA.

Create a ShortAnsFA question

On the Lesson Editor page, click Add New below the Component Bar, then select Quiz. Click the Pencil icon

on the right and select Teacher-Marked Quiz from the Quiz Mode dropdown list.
From the Teacher-Marked Quiz page, select Short Answer Feedback Assistant under Free-Response Questions from the Component Bar. The Create New Question subpage will open.
- Alternatively, you can choose Default Free-Response then click the checkbox next to Use and select Short Answer Feedback Assistant.
From the Leniency dropdown list, select the intended leniency of the feedback and marks provided by ShortAnsFA. High leniency would cause feedback generated to be more open and diverse, with a looser interpretation of the Suggested Answer. The default Leniency is set to Medium.
From the Response Size dropdown list, select the response size, or estimated length of students’ response. A short response would be approximately 100 words long, a medium response would be 300 words long, and a long response would be 500 words long. The default Response Size is set to Medium.
Specify a detailed mark scheme in the Suggested Answer. Click on this e-Poster to view tips on writing suggested answers for Short Answer Feedback Assistant.
