Turn rubric notes into student feedback—without assigning a grade.

Protocol

1. 1

   Step 1 of 4

   Paste the rubric and your observation notes (4 min).

   Include the rubric criteria (not a filled score sheet if you can avoid it), what you noticed in the work, and one growth goal. Use “Student A” or initials. Do not paste a class roster or prior grades.

2. 2

   Step 2 of 4

   Lock “do not assign a grade.”

   The model may describe strengths and next steps. It may not output A–F, percentages, points, or “this is a 3/4.”

   Copy-paste prompt

   Copy rules

   Draft formative feedback from my rubric notes.
   
   Hard rules:
   - Do NOT assign a grade, points, percent, level, or “this would be a B.”
   - Do not infer a score from my adjectives.
   - Use only criteria and observations I pasted. Do not invent quotes from the student work.
   - If I pasted a last name or ID, replace it with initials and tell me.
   - Tone: specific, kind, one next step per criterion.
   
   Output:
   1) Feedback by rubric criterion (strength + next step). No scores.
   2) One overall growth sentence (no grade)
   3) Student-facing comment (under 120 words)
   4) Optional teacher-only note (still no grade)
   
   Confirm the rules, then wait.

3. 3

   Step 3 of 4

   Generate comments, then you enter the grade yourself.

   Read for invented quotes. Enter any score in the gradebook yourself. Then send:

   Generate command

   Copy generate command

   Here are the rubric and my notes. Draft feedback only. If a sentence implies a score, rewrite it. Do not invent student sentences I did not quote.

4. 4

   Step 4 of 4

   Paste into your LMS as comments.

   You still post. If you need a shorter comment box, use the block below—still no grade.

   LMS short comment

   Copy LMS short comment

   Cut the student-facing comment to 60 words. Keep one strength and one next step. No points, letters, or percentages.

When not to

• Do NOT assign, imply, or convert comments into a letter, percent, points, or level. You still grade in the official book.
• Privacy: no student full names, IDs, or class rosters in a consumer chat. Use initials or “Student A.” Follow FERPA and district AI policy.
• Do not invent a quote from the essay to make feedback sound specific.
• Skip this recipe if you have not read the work. Feedback from a title alone will be fiction.
