Use Authoring Copilot to create New Quizzes (Enhanced)
Important:
As Authoring Copilot uses generative AI, its response is probabilistic in nature. Thus, it may at times generate a different number of Sections, Activities, and Components than expected.
Check that the content generated by Authoring Copilot is accurate and appropriate.
In the Homepage, click Create/Edit, and click the orange Create icon
in the Quiz card.
Alternatively, in the Module Editor page of the Quiz, click the orange Create icon
on the Quiz card to open Authoring Copilot.
If you have used Authoring Copilot to create the Quiz, the Quiz Title and Quiz Notes would have been pre-populated. If not, add the Quiz Title and Quiz Notes. Quiz Notes will help guide the Authoring Copilot in the generation of the questions in the Quiz.
You can select the type of components you want Authoring Copilot to generate.
Set the number of components you want, for e.g., if you want to create 3 Multiple Choice Questions and 2 Free Response Questions and, set 5 components, and select the Multiple-Choice and Free-Response options.
You can also generate components directly from the component bar.
Set the Quiz Duration. This duration will be reflected at the Quiz Cover page. The recommended duration for each generated question within the Quiz may not add up to the total Quiz Duration set here.
In the Additional Details field, you can include information about the question types and number of questions in the Quiz.
Note:
For example, “Create 3 multiple-choice questions with lower difficulty for students who are lower progress learners to mainly test recall. Create 2 free-response questions with higher difficulty for students who are higher progress learners to extend their learning with specific real world problems”.
Make sure that the information given about the number of questions in Additional Details corresponds to the Number of Components field.
Authoring Copilot can generate Suggested Answers for Free Response Questions.
You can enable SAFA and edit the Suggested Answer (if required) and mark allocation in Free-Response questions for immediate feedback.
You can add a Knowledge Base by clicking Add Knowledge Base. You can upload up to 20 Knowledge Bases that can comprise text (up to 100,000 characters) and files. These Knowledge Bases can be used when generating sections, activities/quizzes and components in a module.
Note: Users can send a maximum of 20 Knowledge Bases (KBs), which includes both text and file KBs. For the file KBs, the total file size limit is 20MB.
To add PDFs or images from your personal device, click From File Upload. To add a Google file, click on From Google Drive. To add resources already in SLS, select either From Library or From Starred Resources. After uploading your file, click Save.
Note:
Adding a Knowledge Base will anchor the generation of content by Authoring Copilot to information which can be added, e.g. a syllabus document, a comprehension passage or an excerpt from MOE’s interactive digital textbooks. It is recommended to upload specific PDF segments to improve the precision of generated content, as uploading too much information may potentially confuse the LLM and increase hallucinations. Please ensure all uploaded materials comply with data security classification (up to Official (Closed), Non-Sensitive) and copyright laws, using only legally permitted content, properly licensed resources, or materials with explicit permissions. You may refer to Terms of Use for more details.
Authoring Copilot will create a Suggested Quiz Plan with Quiz Description and Question(s). Click the checkbox next to Split into pages if you want the content to be populated across different pages of the Quiz.
Click the checkboxes next to the generated content you wish to include in the Quiz. Click Add to autogenerate the Quiz Description and Question(s) selected.
You can regenerate single components into other types or generate more components. As such, you can click Back to Generate Quiz to edit specific components and regenerate to other components. You can edit the Quiz and Questions generated in the Module Editor page.
Authoring Copilot supports the regeneration of individual components into different types or the generation of additional components. Click the orange Regenerate icon
to regenerate specific components.
Some possible ways of using this new feature are:
Create quizzes that are aligned with learning objectives more easily
Start with Free Response Questions to generate comprehensive content, then transform into other component types like Multiple Choice or Fill-in-the-Blanks to cater to diverse learning needs
Adapt complex questions into simpler formats for scaffolding and differentiation of learning
