Interpretable decision layer for outcome-independent coordination of teacher and student feedback¶
Design · All designs
Evidence · no claims cited
Description¶
A transparent mechanism that combines teacher and student feedback to rank course topics needing attention without grades or outcome labels. It integrates three signals — gap prevalence, survey disagreement, and teacher friction — into a topic priority score with a per-topic decision record explaining each ranking. The article states it "organizes teacher, student, and researcher roles around this shared decision process," positioning the layer as supporting human–AI co-agency rather than replacing instructor judgment.
Design Implications¶
Context¶
Requirements¶
- Teacher signals from coded instructor interviews, student signals from interaction traces and surveys, and researcher-defined weights must be available for the same course topics
Constraints¶
- Weights are specified rather than learned in the current implementation; the study reflects one graduate-level course offering and findings are preliminary and exploratory
Target Learners¶
- graduate CS students in an AI-augmented classroom
Learning Goals¶
- timely identification of course topics requiring instructional attention before graded outcomes are available
