Reviewing Feedback in TA39: What to Look For
Video coming soon.
What this video covers
This is the product video for Module C: Evaluating AI Feedback. It assumes you've read Evaluating AI-Generated Feedback and have the five-part protocol in hand. The video applies the protocol to a real Review & Transform screen — student-focus check, curriculum-sensitivity check, grade verification, essential teacher additions, and red flags.
What you'll see in the walkthrough
The Review & Transform screen is where teacher judgment lands. The video walks through it with the protocol visible as a side reference, so you can see how each check looks against actual draft feedback.
Three moments in the video carry most of the weight:
- Grade verification done deliberately. A suggested score is opened against the rubric descriptor and the student's actual writing. The comparison is slow on purpose — this is where override decisions get made.
- An essential teacher addition. A note about a student's progress that the system can't see. Typed in real time. Not a correction; a completion.
- A red flag caught. A factual claim about the essay that turns out to be wrong on inspection. Corrected before sending. This is the kind of failure that destroys trust faster than anything else — the protocol exists to catch it.
The first time you run the protocol, expect 15 to 20 minutes on one student. With practice, three to five minutes per student is realistic. The time is real, and so is the difference it makes.
Where this fits in your practice
Pair this video with the Five-Part Evaluation Protocol reading. The reading explains why each check matters; the video shows you what each check looks like on the screen.
Use the video again whenever you onboard a colleague to the review step, or whenever you find yourself accepting drafts too quickly — the discipline of the protocol is easy to slip on under time pressure, and the video re-anchors it.
