Assessment & Evaluation Pattern
| Component | Weight | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Session Reflections | 20% | A short written reflection submitted after every class — 12 in total, one per session across the six weeks. |
| Prompt Clinic Journal | 20% | Three-round prompt iteration log from Module 4 — documents the student's thinking improving across each iteration. |
| Data Audit | 15% | Written audit of a real dataset from Module 2 — who collected it, who is missing, and what decisions should not be made from it. |
| Accountability Tribunal Verdict | 15% | Individual written verdict from the Module 5 tribunal — one paragraph, signed, with clear reasoning. |
| Capstone: The AI Audit | 30% | 1-page structured audit of one AI tool the student uses daily — written with the tool open; must reproduce one failure in real time; peer comment attached. |
| Total | 100% |
What the AI Audit Capstone Requires
Each student selects one AI-powered tool they use in daily life — such as a social media feed, a navigation app, a chatbot, or a keyboard autocorrect — and produces a structured 1-page audit covering:
- What the tool does and what type of AI powers it.
- What data it likely trains on and whose experience may be underrepresented.
- One moment it worked well and one where it failed — both reproduced live during the session.
- One recommendation: what should change, and who is responsible?
Assessment Criteria: The capstone will be assessed on the quality of reasoning, not on technical accuracy or the complexity of the tool.
